LEAK Sandwich 250 Loudspeakers Walnut (pair) With out without Stands

The Leak Sandwich 150 and 250 are the pinnacle of innovation that commenced in 1961 with the original Leak Sandwich. Those technological advancements are implemented with the utmost regard for tradition, as well as the continual aspiration to forge sound reproduction equipment of the highest quality, accessible to every discerning audiophile.

Sandwitch Cabinet
It is not often sufficiently realised how profound the influence of the loudspeaker housing (the cabinet) is on the overall acoustic performance.

Its design requires a great degree of electroacoustic knowledge as a design of the motor units themselves.

The new Leak Sandwich cabinet benefits from 60 years of technological development since the original.

The structure consists of a composition of MDF and composite board, thus creating a second ‘sandwich’ reference, with the boards layered for optimum cabinet strength.

While the new cabinet fuses intelligent bracing with this ‘sandwich’ of materials, it also maintains a specific front-rear bracing, with the distinct, visible countersunk screw on the rear – a famous trait of the original.

Technology
The technology found within Leak audio devices presents science and innovation in abundance, yet the industrial design often draws favourable attention.

Just like the warmly received Leak Stereo 130 and 230 integrated amplifier models, the new Leak Sandwich 150 and 250 loudspeaker models maintain the understated, classic Leak styling.

Finished in a sumptuous walnut, real-wood veneer, the cabinet is decorated with an aluminium trim insert matched and finished to the same exemplary standards of the driver trims and cone materials.

The decorative grille cloth is purpose chosen to match the classic Leak styling with a specification for maximum acoustic transparency.

A keen eye will also notice that the new Leak Sandwich 150 and 250 are supplied in perfectly matched pairs with a ‘handed’ array presentation.

Much more than continued industrial design traits, the meticulous placement of each driver is considered to the nth degree, thus enabling a projection of a truly precise stereo soundstage.

Stand Plinth (Optional)
Such is the format of the Leak Sandwich 250, many traditional stands would not allow for sufficient presentation of this loudspeaker.

To address this consideration, the Sandwich 250 is complemented by a precision-measured plinth that positions the loudspeaker’s driver array at the optimum level and position.

The result is a finely finished loudspeaker and matching stand combination of furniture-grade quality, that eliminates any compromise of the listening experience for the proud owner.
