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.

Another good dealer for Lyngdorf and other good gear is Neal at Sound Science. I purchased my 2170 from Neal. Great service. I also purchased my computer/server from Neal.

Hi Every One,

Neal here from Sound Science, I have been selling Lyngdorf for nearly 16 years now, I have moved to Taos NM and opened a brick and mortar store there.  I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

This  Lyngdorf 2170 sounds very interesting. I'm currently in the market for new amps, this may just fit the bill and save a lot of money. Can anyone tell me if it has a theater bypass input as my 2-channel rig and surround system share with the theater bypass input on my krell evo 202 preamp. Anyone looking to upgrade to the 3400 , I just may be interested in buying your 2170.

@grannyring I wouldn't run it 24/7, those LPF caps won't survive for ever, no reason to run it 24/7, it's not tube or class A amp to heat up and stabilize components to perform optimally

@jcarcopo I had Nords previously coupled with dual differential sabre DAC and sold it once I heard Lyngdorf so I would be surprised if you find it better sounding (perfect match is the key), unless Colin change something significant in his amps in the last year or so to perform significantly better

@ron1264 any of its inputs can be turned into HT bypass mode so no problem...

in terms of filtering/conditioning, it has surge and EMI/RFI filter built in including regulated power supply so unless someone's living under broadcasting radio station or any other heavy gain RF antenna I don't see a reason filtering it any further and even than one would have to live in bunker 2 floors underground to eliminate potential interferences... Lyngdorf is nice example of how the filtering and isolation supposed to be done properly in audio electronics... 

 

ron1264,
Yes any input looks like they could used as ht bypass,I don’t have a ht so never tried it.I won’t be selling my 2170 after I buy a 3400,I will keep it for a 2nd system.That’s how much I like them.
Here’s a link to the manual,
