WARNING
CLASS 1
LASER
PRODUCT
This appliance is classified
as a CLASS 1 LASER
product. Do not open the
cabinet as the laser beam
used in this appliance is
harmful to eyes.
Disposal of Electronic Equipment in the European Union and
other countries with collection procedures:
The wheelie bin symbol on this product indicates that it shall not
be treated as household waste. It should be disposed of via a
collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic
equipment.
Mains Supply Voltage: This unit may be set to operate on 220-240 VAC or 110-120 VAC 50/60 Hz by inserting the rear
panel fuse holder in the appropriate orientation. This setting should only be changed by an authorised service agent as an
inappropriate setting will damage the unit. Before use, check that the unit’s voltage setting displayed above the IEC mains
inlet matches the mains power supply in your area.
Disconnect the mains supply if the unit will not be used for a long period of time.
Cleaning: Disconnect the unit from the mains supply. Clean the cabinet, front panel and lid with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with a weak detergent solution or clear fluid glass cleaning product. Ensure the unit is fully dry before re-
connecting the mains supply. Do not re-connect the supply with damp hands.
Do not use any abrasive or solvent based cleaning products as these will damage the finish.
Placement: Operate the unit on a flat and level hard surface. To prevent the build-up of heat inside the player, place the
unit in a location with adequate ventilation and do not cover the unit. Do not locate the unit near heat sources such as
radiators or in direct sunlight. Do not move the player with a disc inside. This disc may be damaged or may fall inside the unit.
Condensation: If the unit is moved from a cold location to a warm room, condensation may occur on the laser optics
causing a temporary malfunction. The unit will return to normal operation after a short period of time.

About Discs
Only handle discs by the edge. Do not touch the silver disc surface. If a disc requires cleaning, wipe it with a soft cleaning
cloth moving from the centre outwards. Do not wipe the disc in a circular motion. When not using discs, store them in a case.
Never place the disc on a surface out of it’s case as the disc will be permanently damaged. A disc damaged by marks and
scratches may no longer play. Even if it does play, the audio quality may be degraded.
Red Book Standard
Stream is a ‘Red Book' standard CD player and as such will play any genuine red-book disc. These discs will normally carry the
Compact Disc logo. Some discs have been manufactured using various forms of copy protection such as Cactus and the
Sony BMG system. These discs, which do not normally carry the registered logo, may produce erratic behaviour when played
in Stream and have been the subject of much controversy. More information on this subject is available on various websites
such as:
http://ukcdr.org/issues/cd/bad/
Even if a copy protected disc does play, the audio quality may be compromised. Try to avoid purchasing this
type of disc wherever possible.
Discs That Cannot Be Played: Stream is designed to play audio CDs only. CD-R discs optimised for audio use and
some ‘silver’ CD-R discs may also play correctly. Non-silver CD-R discs will not play. The player will play all discs fully
conforming to the Philips red book standard but may not play discs with some types of copy protection.

Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Leema Stream Multi-DAC CD player.
The Leema range of products has been painstakingly engineered in the United Kingdom to offer genuine state-of-the-art
performance.
Partnered with suitable equipment, Leema products will provide audio performance far beyond that of their competitors
and will equal or better the performance of products costing many times their purchase price.

A notable feature of this product is the MD multi-DAC converter technology. In the Leema Stream, this topology uses sixteen
(eight stereo) 24bit/192KHz digital-to-analogue converters in a parallel-multiple balanced configuration. The net result is a
CD player with analogue-like midband and high frequencies having great space and depth without the usual harshness
associated with digital recording formats.
Purchasers should read and follow this instruction manual, paying particular attention to the user installation and safety
advice section.
This manual has been written to enable you to achieve the very best performance and maximum listening pleasure from
your investment.
We wish you many years of pleasurable listening... Move Your World!
With best regards
The Leema Team.

Overview
STREAM

Overview
Stream is more than a CD player. By the use of our LIPS interface technology, Stream may control aspects of the complete
audio system. For example, if a source other than CD is in use, simply selecting play will automatically switch the amplifier to
the CD input and select a default low volume level. Stream may also be fully controlled by LIPS enabling wired integration with
control systems such as Procontrol or Crestron.

LIPS - Leema Intelligent Protocol System
LIPS is a proprietary communication system which enables Leema audio components to talk to each other. A degree of
intelligence is instilled in each unit allowing the units to make decisions based on user requirements and system
configuration. For example, in a multi-channel system, the components understand which of them are required for normal
stereo material and which are required for multi-channel playback. When the user switches between input formats, the units
respond by powering up or down as required. In this way, the system is made much easier to use and energy is not wasted
powering units that are not required. Stream continues this theme and is able to control other units in the family, allowing the
majority of the system to be hidden away if required, in an air conditioned cupboard for example.
Making a LIPS connection
LIPS cables are directional and have one black end and one red. If Stream is controlling other units, the black connector
should be plugged in to either LIPS socket on Stream and the red connector plugged in to the first amplifier component, e.g.
Pulse. If Stream is to be controlled, the black connector is connected to the master device and the red connector is plugged
in to either LIPS socket on Stream.

1. POWER - The power button toggles Stream between On and Standby. If a
LIPS connection is used, the power status of any other Leema components
connected via LIPS will also be controlled.
2. TRAY - The tray button opens and closes the CD drawer.
3. INPUT -/+ When Stream is connected to a Leema amplifier product via a
LIPS cable, these buttons are used to cycle through the available amplifier
inputs. If LIPS is not used, the buttons have no function.
4. VOLUME -/+ The volume level of a Leema amplifier product may be
controlled from the Stream remote. If a LIPS connection is used, the amplifier
may be out of sight of the remote, in an air conditioned cupboard for
example. If LIPS is not used, the remote will command the amplifier using
infra-red.
5. PLAY - The play button also provides a pause function if the disc is already
running. Tracks may be ‘queued’ by selecting pause and then NEXT/PREV to
queue the required track. Pressing PLAY with the drawer open will close the
draw and initiate PLAY.
6. STOP - Stops playback
