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.
STREAM General Declaration of Conformity We hereby declare that the product to which this declaration relates, is in conformity with the following standards: EN60065, EN55013, EN55020, EN61000-3-2, EN61000-3-3. The product design also follows the provisions of 73/23/EEC, 89/336/EEC and 93/68/EEC Directives.
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.
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.

Remote Remote Remote 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.

STREAM Remote 7. PREV - If SCAN is not selected, the PREV button decrements the track selection. If SCAN is selected, PREV becomes SCAN BACKWARDS (<<) and forces the playback to jump back in units of thirty seconds. 8. NEXT - If SCAN is not selected, the NEXT button increments the track selection. If SCAN is selected, NEXT becomes SCAN FORWARD (>>) and forces the playback to jump forwards in units of thirty seconds.
Front Panel Operation Front Panel Operation 1. Standby - The Standby 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. Leema L-Drive control Stream uses a radical new control device called L-Drive.
SPDIF coaxial digital output This output provides a transformer isolated standard Sony/Philips digital interface. Use a good quality cable designed for SPDIF applications. Audio cables must not be used as they will seriously degrade the data stream. LIPS The LIPS cables are directional and must be connected the right way round for the system to operate. No harm will be done if cables are connected the wrong way round, the system will simply not work correctly.
LIPS or Leema Intelligent Protocol System, facilitates communication between various items in a Leema audio system. It allows units such as Tucana, Antila, Pulse or Stream to control other items in a chain. Leema’s constellation 5.2 surround system is a good example, where a Tucana controls a Hydra and Corvus. Key information including volume level, input selection and power control is passed through the bus enabling other units to operate in synchronisation.
Value = 80 This is issued by Corvus. The command value contains the extract status. Value = 90 Antila/Stream direct track access. Valid command values are 1 - 99 for tracks 1 - 99. Value = 100 Spare header for future use.
The above are used as follows: num, +10, num. e.g. 1,+10,2 = track 12 etc. In addition to Stream specific codes, the player is able to process amplifier codes for communication via LIPS: IR DEVICE = 16 (Amplifier, e.g. Tucana etc.)
