Lyngdorf 3400 flexibility vs 1120


  • The 1120 might meet my needs today. The 3400 has more power and flexibility to adapt to.my future needs

To own for the long term. It might make more sense to pony up the extra money?

I owned high resolution gear certainly 25 years ago.

I sold my home with a large treated long term listening room. I am renting and will move again. Today dynaudio special 40 or evoke 20 are my likely speaker of choice.

I have a strong desire to fully jump into the digital age.

These stand mounts long term may become a second system or may end up as the primary with subwoofer(s) in the future.

Apartment living means headphones are important. I also cannot regularly listen at higher volumes. 

Lyngdirf 1120 will be a royal pain to use with both subwoofer(s) and a decent headphone Amp. Only one set of rca's out. Headphone should not include room perfect.

 

Would lyngdorf owners share their experience as real home demos are difficult. 

I have questions like:

1120: headphone and subwoofer; line splitter and changing the room perfect configuration. Is there a practical easy solution.tobuse both subs and headphone and be able to switch back and forth easily?

3400  quality of the headphone amp/output.    Is the option analog in a worthwhile up grade for lp"s or a future dac upgrade years fromr now.

Is the upgrade easy to obtain in the future?

 

I am a bit lost going back and forth. I tried calling Denmark for help

I only found one usa dealer who would make  any real effort to offer guidance.

In Miami. the dealers install complex upper end home systems and have no demos and have no interest in two channel.

 

Please comment and help me figure out what to do. I am leaning towards the 3400.

I own a TDAI3400 and have a friend with one , you are getting very good advice on this thread so far.

There is excellent UK dealer and owners support on AVforums.com 

It's such a shame that the dealer network in the US is nothing like the UK as home demos were offered here widely and room perfect is truly awesome in what it can do. 

 

I would not get an external DAC with a TDAI , you don't need it the AMP is  DAC .
