The Tucana amplifier received massive critical acclaim, won many prestigious awards right across the globe, and helped establish Leema Acoustics as an audio manufacturer of the very highest quality. The Pulse amplifier was designed to deliver a startling level of performance to a whole new audience. By careful slimming and honing of the Tucana design, and by adding several new features Leema have produced a new reference amplifier in its price band.
The Pulse is easily capable of driving today's audiophile speakers with a vice-like grip and precise control. Input selection includes a LIPS® configurable AV input, separate moving magnet and moving coil phono inputs and a front panel mounted MP3 player input. Additional features include record output, full remote control with sophisticated volume display, headphone output, and for total peace of mind, full short circuit protection.
As with all Leema electronics, the Pulse features LIPS®, which enables the Pulse to automatically and intelligently configure other devices into a multi-unit home entertainment system of uncompromised audiophile quality. It was designed with families in mind. No longer will only one member of the family be able to fully use the system, resulting in more enjoyment for everyone.
