indeed; not a good look for LEEMA at all ! esp. considering they're releasing new products this year too ! puts you off reading things like this. look at REGA and NAIM. no questions, no issues.

there is no real "correct" answer. to get strong low level performance, thee amplifier ideally needs to provide good "grip"; thee ability to drive the speaker hard. in order to achieve, the transformer and output stages should offer high current and high power transients. the more you spend...

DB1R look nice but blooming rear porting and probably not as good as the AlChris TX1! ProAC also seem to have a thin dealer network up here in the Tundra (accepting ALCHRIS have NO dealer network 😀)…..

EQ is solving a problem that exists because either your source, your amplification or your transducer is poorly matched to environment and/or listening preference. It will always degrade the source signal.

good to hear; look good too ?

I wonder how those new LEEMAs sound

what hifi's show report utterly disappointing; hopefully they will further develop the content beyond 12 items that took their interest.

Rear ported speakers an absolute no no for me consequent to my inability to position them 2m in free space. I recently heard the new DALI RUBIKORE in a demo room, totally in free space. They were simply superb. A genuinely beautiful speaker in all senses……I requested they be positioned to the...

Ribbon tweeters and metal domed tweeters can be too sibilant even mated to great mid and bass drivers I have found… The trade off is that ribbon AMT sweetness airiness versus wider dispersal which some prefer….i find that top end sweetness difficult to digest. Probably my age and my hearing…...

I love my ATC in my study. Their transparency and their lack of interaction in the room gives me a really great “critical” listening experience……… They are only considered lean as they do not embellish any of the recording like my PMC and especially my AlChris ! However, the PMC do warm up the...

I’m listening to Esbjorn Svensson Trio just now on my Prodigy 5s and I do reckon they are the most beautiful sounding speaker in my wee snug. I love them and they are just so well bodied and musical with the EXA100 driving… If however I was in maths big room listening to my TX9s I’d feel the...

Leema priced like the EXPOSURE 3510 and the ATOLL IN300 and HEGEL H150… Real competition I reckon is the 3510. That is a cracking amp and I’d like to think the LEEMA could compete… LEEMA I150 at £2650 seems great value compared to some other British stuff of similar specification…..Bee real...

In the pics the LEEMA doesn’t look so well finished as the Onkyo. I find the HEGEL too boring, but will admit that they do sound great. The H150 is an especially good integrated

I like them. And arguably taking the fight to Cambridge, Naim and Rega. Does the volume look like the new Cyrus ?

Or TT Cartridge swapping !
