Dumping it all for Lyngdorf???

I'm seriously thinking about dumping ALL my HiFi gear and settling on a Lyngdorf TDAI-1120 and a pair of KEF LS50 Metas and be done with it......Current system is Node2i/Gustard X16 DAC/ Schiit Freya Preamp/ VTA Dynaco ST120 Tube or First Watt F5v2 Class A or ICE Power 200 Class D or Yamaha M45 Class A/AB.......With LS50 Metas. 

 I'm really intrigued with the whole Lyngdorf thing of room correction, full digital nearly end to end, all in one, fantastic GUI, and about 1/2 of what I have invested $$

 Might see if a dealer will let me try one.....

It sounds like you have reached the point in your audiophile journey where you are tired of screwing around with gear and just want to sit back and listen to a system that sounds good. Nothing wrong with screwing around with gear, by the way.  It’s just a lot of work and it can get tiresome after a while. Enjoy yourself.

Just a friendly piece of advice from someone who has been there and back. Buy what sounds good and forget about what makes sense on paper.

If you’re that happy with the speakers, I would consider the matching sub. It supposedly has good room correction ability. Remember also that if you love the speakers, part of the reason, perhaps a big part, is because they are well matched with the electronics you have now, so you might not want to screw with a working combination.

@rbrertalotto- it’s good to save up for things, but from where I sit, everything I want to buy jumps $500 every time I turn around.  Maybe better to buy on credit and pay a few months interest. Just sayin. Also, if the 8 watt tube amp is what you love, I doubt any moderately-priced solid state amp will make you as happy. Just get the sub and be done before the price doubles. IMO.
