Streaming Without Compromise

At the heart of the TruStream is a high-performance streaming engine engineered by Silent Angel, the industry leaders in low-noise digital transmission. Powered by the custom LEAK TruStream app, the platform guarantees rock-solid network stability, precision clocking, and ultra-low jitter—the fundamental pillars of true high-fidelity sound.

The TruStream integrates seamlessly with the modern digital landscape, offering native support for Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, TuneIn, and AirPlay 2. It is also fully Roon Ready, ensuring it fits perfectly into the most sophisticated home audio ecosystems. Beyond cloud services, the device handles network playback from shared storage via DLNA and SMB/CIFS, as well as direct playback from local USB drives.

Precision Engineering & Performance

Reference-Grade Digital Conversion

For uncompromising audio quality, the TruStream utilises the ESS Sabre ES9038Q2M Reference DAC, a 32-bit architecture celebrated for its massive dynamic range and time-domain precision. When paired with LEAK’s proprietary low-noise power circuitry and signal-isolation architecture, the result is a breathtakingly transparent soundstage that captures every subtle texture and spatial cue of a high-resolution recording.

True High-Resolution Audio

TruStream handles the most demanding studio-grade files with absolute accuracy. It supports PCM up to 768kHz and DSD up to DSD512, alongside a comprehensive list of formats including FLAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF, and APE. This ensures that every track, from classic CD-quality files to the highest-bitrate studio masters, is reproduced with complete fidelity.

Analogue Purity, Digital Flexibility

While many streamers act only as transports, the TruStream is a complete, high-performance source component. Its integrated DAC allows for direct analogue connection to amplifiers via both RCA and balanced XLR outputs, preserving the full resolution of your music. For maximum system compatibility, it also includes optical, coaxial, and USB digital outputs, as well as Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and a dedicated headphone output.

User-Centric Design

Effortless Setup & Control

High-end audio should be simple to operate. The TruStream offers flexible installation via Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet, with WPS pairing for instant router connection. Once online, the dedicated LEAK TruStream app for iOS and Android provides an intuitive gateway to your entire music library, blending modern digital convenience with a classic hi-fi experience.

A Dedicated Headphone Experience

For private listening, the TruStream incorporates a dedicated current-feedback headphone amplifier. Designed to drive a wide range of headphones with precision—from high-impedance studio designs to modern portable monitors—it delivers a detailed, dynamic sound that makes late-night listening more engaging than ever.

The LEAK Tradition

Timeless Aesthetic

Following the lineage of the legendary Stereo 30, the TruStream features a signature brushed-aluminum fascia housed in a classic walnut-veneer cabinet. It is a tactile, beautiful piece of engineering that reflects the timeless aesthetic of classic LEAK equipment while remaining perfectly at home in a modern interior.

The Perfect System Partner

The TruStream is styled as the definitive match for the LEAK Stereo 130 and Stereo 230 amplifiers. When paired, they form a cohesive, high-performance system that honours the heritage of the LEAK brand. Whether used as a primary streamer in a main hi-fi rig or as a sophisticated desktop "head-fi" component, the TruStream delivers exceptional musicality in a beautifully straightforward package.
