Description

The Leak Stereo 130 Integrated Amplifier employs the latest technologies while retaining the same philosophy that the Stereo 30 was built upon in 1963. It is fully equipped to meet the demands of modern music lovers, from vinyl records to digital streaming.

Leak Stereo 130

Leak Stereo 130 integrated amplifier is built for modern audio enthusiasts and designed to perfectly pair with a broad range of analogue and digital sources. The built-in MM phono pre-amplifier allows for direct connection to record players.

Leak HiFi Legacy

When Leak launched the iconic Stereo 30, it swiftly became Britain’s favourite ‘step-up’ from standard budget amplifiers of the time. Now, Leak harnesses the latest technology to deliver a new, affordable integrated amplifier.

Stream music to the Stereo 130 from any Bluetooth device, such as portable music players and smartphones, via built-in aptX and AAC codecs. Enjoy CD-quality wireless audio over Bluetooth.

Reference Quality

Much effort has been made to ensure the Leak Stereo 130’s digital circuitry delivers the level of quality expected of a high-performance standalone DAC, let alone an integrated amplifier.

Designed in line with the Leak ethos of performance, reliability and craftsmanship, the Leak Stereo 130 matches contemporary performance with classic styling.

No Compromise Performance

Using the acclaimed ES9018 Sabre32 Reference chip with 32-bit HyperStream module and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, Leak Stereo 130 offers ultra-low noise and high dynamic range with a sample rate of up to 284kHz (PCM) and DSD256.

For Headphone Users

Leak Stereo 130 has a dedicated amplifier circuit with current-feedback technology for the headphones output. The performance is equal to standalone headphone amplifiers that are beyond the price class of this system. The high slew rate results in a high-speed output signal transition, resulting in a dynamic, detailed and engaging performance with any type of headphone.
