The Leema Appreciation club
- Thread starter plastic penguin
- Start date
This one could have less members/interest than women on this forum 
Still, some interesting products. Lets see what the future holds for the troubled company.

No troubles now, according to their website. No doubt Leema is a lesser known company to produce high quality gear.
I love the look of the Tucana.
The casings are especially nice. - Not sure what went wrong but maybe it was a case of running before learning to walk. I assume they wanted to mix with the likes of Naim/Musical Fidelity/Cyrus but the cost of producing those nice casings/electronics must have weighed them down heavily. - Other, more established brands have probably long paid off costs for tooling and establishing a common platform for circuit boards, expensive in itself, will help no end.
Time will tell.

Even their entry-level amps are good VFM, and the Pulse is a smaller, less bulkier version of the Tucana. But yes, if ever I get the urge to upgrade I would look at Tucana first.

Bore da,
I'd love to join as the Tucanna II once took my fancy so had a listen, even tried a phono stage of theirs but, sadly, none in my kit (as I cannot afford the Altair IV Monoblock power amps )
Galw'r heddlu! *biggrin*

How do you find that stuff?
As to the club, it may be difficult to form a gaggle but a threesome should be on the books ...

Shouldn't that be 'Oes siaced yn syth'?
Happy days. That's all we need to say. 4 years with a Tucana II now. No plans to change it for quite a while.

I owned Tucanna II for more than a year and I am still loving it. A very powerful and neutral piece of hi fi equipment.*dance4*
Can you tell us more about your setup and how the Leema became the amp of choice for you?
Cheers

On a more serious note it is very good to see that, along with Tom Evans Audio, there is still some serious hi-fi amplification coming out of Wales ...... long may it continue.
