Leema has introduced their new budget CD player and amplifiers. The Leema Stream CD Player features 16 24-bit/192KHz Crystal multi-bit, Delta-Sigma converters and a Philips CD drive. The Stream also uses a single rotary control knob called the Leema L-Drive. The L-Drive (not to be confused with BMW's i-Drive) handles all of the basic CD player functions, and has the capability to control other Leema products equipped with Leema's Intelligent Protocol System (LIPS).

The Pulse Amplifier features a separate moving magnet and moving coil phono inputs along with an auxiliary input for portable audio players on the front panel. The unit comes with a remote control and can output 80 watts per channel into 8 ohms.

The Stream CD Player will cost you about $2,259 (£1095), and the Pulse amplifier runs $2,465 (£1195).
