The Leema Acoustics Pulse IV is an integrated amplifier housed in a full metal case and equipped with everything you need to listen to music from any source. It has a built-in phono preamplifier for moving magnet and moving coil heads, an excellent 32-bit/384 kHz DAC built on a Sabre chip with support for an XMOS USB input and capable of significantly improving the sound quality from external digital signal sources such as a computer.
The Leema Acoustics Pulse IV is a full-fledged music listening hub. It is ready to work with a variety of music sources, including vinyl players and Bluetooth-connected smartphones. The signal is processed by a 32-bit/384 Hz DAC from ESS with DSD support. The phono preamplifier circuit is borrowed from a separate Essentials device and is ready to work with both MM and MC heads.
As a result, the Leema Acoustics Pulse IV amplifier is equipped with six digital inputs (three optical and three coaxial), a USB connector, five linear and a phono input, as well as a Bluetooth transceiver. The power of the device is 80 W at 8 ohms. On the front panel there is a headphone jack, and on the back there are two pairs of preamplifier outputs, a fixed output and RCA.
If the user finds the 80 watts per channel at his disposal not enough, then two pairs of pre-amplifier outputs are at his service, to which additional power amplifiers can be connected. In addition to all of the above, the Leema Acoustics Pulse IV has a good built-in headphone amplifier module. The new product is part of the Stellar series of components and, like all other models in it, is entirely produced at the company’s factory in Welshpool.
