The brand new LEAK Stereo 230 & Wharfedale Linton 85th - Music review playing. Quite the step up from a Stereo 130. Stereo 230 is fitted with HDMI ARC, bigger cabinet and more power, but still matches the beautiful walnut finish from the Linton.

very well pairing in sound and in aesthetics, this could be a good purchase for when I will have room again, thanks fo the test :)

Useful video. I was thinking of buying this exact setup. 👍

Which one you would choose for Lintons?
Leak 230, Audiolab 7000 or 9000?
Thanks🙏🏻

hello, the linton and the leak 230 make a perfect couple both aesthetically and sonically. I love this combination. I wonder if you can see the electrolytic capacitors through the upper ventilation grill. Could you see how many there are? 2 capacitors 1 per channel or 4 capacitors 2 per channel? thank you

Hi, I have the Buchardt s400 mk2 speakers on order and should be delivered soon, Do you think the Leak stereo 230 would be a good pairing for them?, I am looking for a new amp as the one I have at the moment I think will not be powerful enough for my new speakers and I love the old school look of the Leak plus I note that it has an HDMI arc input on it, I would be grateful for any feedback.

How do you like the Stereo 230 with the Lintons compared to other amplifiers you have used? Where does the Leak rank in your opinion? Thanks.

Bonjour de France 🙋🏻, vous aviez les basse et les aigus à zéro ??, je cherche un son chaud avec les linton, quelle est le meilleur, leak 230 ou marantz model40 ???, merci pour les réponses 🙋🏻🙋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

It is recommended that the tweeter goes inwards, do you think that the sound is better this way (tweeter towards the outside)?

If you wanted to add 2 subwoofers to this setup, would the leak 230 play them sufficiently?

I see you have these pretty close to back wall. I am looking at buying these but most reviews say meter away from wall. Your thoughts please. Cheers

Yes. My two inch laptop speakers capture it all! /s If Leak still made speakers, is it reasonable to suppose they would make something like the Linton 85th Anniversary?
