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.

Thanks for the response Kenny.   I was thinking about adding HQ Player to the mix. I will touch base with you next week to get a better understanding of what it offers.

What exactly does HQ player do? Is it similar to Audirvana and Amarra? I really dig the sound quality of Amarra but it’s just so damn glitchy. Being on the market for as long as it has you would think they would have got it figured out.

HQ player is the best software player and incorporates with Roon as my Library database and also Tidal.
HQ player has the best upsampling and filtering options of any other player including Roon 1.5 and would Probably beat and or rival any hardware upsampling that any Dac uses including playback designs and denefips.

Greatly simplifies my system and not chasing the Dac dragon anymore and having to stimulate the industry with my coins.

HQ player is also greatly supported and upgrades are free to your bought software and is very stable along with Roon.

I’ve never used Audirvana,that’s generally for macs.

Kenny.

Ok I will say it again because it works! Take the top off your 2170 as she loves it.  Frees her up to be all she can be or something like that.  I liked it more and more as the days passed.  Don’t do it if you have kids or pets that can get inside!

Tdai 3400 will not be replacing my set tube amp after all.  Oh well, fraud happens.
