This is a very special, handmade amplifier that is made in Japan. We have been asked about tube amplifiers many times and what we have learned is that there are a lot of products on the market that are sorely lacking in terms of build quality and reliability. With Leben, you are getting that magical tube sound with heirloom build quality that will give you many years of faithful service.

The CS1300X is an EL84 based tube integrated amplifier rated at 15 Watts per channel which doesn’t sound like much but when we are talking tube watts you are getting a lot more power than you might suspect. Careful speaker matching is definitely required but this will drive any mid efficiency speaker no problem without any issue whatsoever.

You are getting that warm, smooth tube sound while still maintaining excellent detail retrieval and solid bottom end. These are sought after for good reason. Note, this unit has line inputs only, you will need a phono preamplifier if you wish to play a turntable through this unit.

We now have the CS-300XS on demo in store, backup stock will be in roughly late September. If you click through online you can either have the first box unit arriving or our demo if you cannot wait a few weeks.

These are absolutely magical with the Revival Atalante 3’s which we also carry but this amplifier is noted to work exceptionally well with any number of speakers. The CS-600X are due to arrive in the coming weeks, if you are interested in that or any other Leben model let us know.
