Leema Acoustics Stream new Entry-level CD Player

Leema Acoustics Stream new Entry-level CD Player

After the Antila CD player, Leema Acoustics extends its line with an "entry-level" CD player. Available at £1,095 the Stream CD player is closely based on the Antila and is set for launch in time for Christmas.

This CD player still features the MD2 active differential multi-DAC converter technology from its brother, 16x 24-bit/192KHz Crystal multi-bit DAC as opposed to the Antilla's 20, Delta-Sigma converters, a Philips CD drive and has a coaxial digital output. The front panel has only one control: Leema's L-Drive. This single rotary control handles all the usual functions such as CD tray open and close, play, stop, next and previous track selection and so on. And the Stream is equipped with LIPS (Leema's Intelligent Protocol System) which enables the CD player to communicate with other Leema products.
