I recently sold my 2170 after buying inefficient speakers and already miss it. It is everything Kdude66 and Grannyring say it is and I see a 3400 in my near future. I will compare it against a complete PS Audio separates stack (Directstream/BHK Preamp/BHK250)...Probably a few months from now. The convenience, sonics, customization, voicings, and bass management are awesome. The things I'm most excited about in the 3400 are xlr outs and onboard streaming capability. I'm just hoping the sonic signature stays the same as the 2170. If so, the 3400 is an end game product.
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
Hello All,
I’m coming up on 40 yrs in this hobby,and or obsession of ours,and I started with a pair of Khorns and Macintosh at the age of 12 and Offcourse owned a ton of different gear over the yrs.
I bought a 2170 a little more than 6 months ago and I enjoyed it so much that I quickly realized I don’t really need anything else,solid state,tubes,or even dac’s anymore.I could step off that silly merry go round of amplification and just enjoy music.I was able to utilize the extra money and time and put together a really great sounding network audio system that rivaled the best in analog that I have ever had,I was mainly a analog guy all of these yrs but finally gave it up,I even sold my longtime record collection of 3k records which included many Hot Stampers that I purchased and also several that I found on my own.
So who Luv’s the 2170 and is maybe also thinking about the new 3400.
Happy Listening,
Kenny.

After reading up on the 3400, I may be as well to stay with my 2170. Extra features I see. More power 2x200w at 8 ohms Aes/ebu digital input Built in media server. I use my Vault2 for media , playing my ripped cds and stream Tidal. Will not get rid of it as then would lose ability to play my ripped cds so the built in media server on the 3400 is a little redundant for me. More power...well always nice but I do not feel the 2170 is straining in my system so.... Aes/ebu input...... Do not have anything that has that type of output. Will wait and see others thoughts and experience with the 3400. |
The one thing that interests me about the 3400 that I wish the 2170 had, is the adjustable EQ. Not crazy about the preset ones on the 2170. Also if anyone is interested in getting more posts about the 2170 from another thread. go here https://www.avforums.com/threads/lyngdorf-discussion-thread.1580956/ |
