Funny isn’t it, from reading all of these posts regarding the performance Of Steinway Lyngdorf audio systems one would think all of them had Auditioned them. The reality of course it is obvious that none of these contributors Have! I have been an audiophile (read music lover) since I was 18, now 64. over the years I have been fortunate to own and enjoy many high -end Systems with kit from Linn, Meridian, Raidho and Lyngdorf audio including The highly acclaimed Millenium Mk4 amp. The gentleman in the first video is Rob Sinden the main UK distributor Model S, it is without doubt one of the finest audio systems I have Ever experienced let alone owned, I am not suggesting that it is the best stereo that money can buy As such a statement is asking for trouble, however having listened To many systems that include the most of the big names that Lukaske mentioned I have yet to hear one better than the system I own. If the purpose of a audio system is to deliver realism then SL does That better than most. The unique patented technologies that all SL system's use are Extremely effective at dealing with the main problem that limits The performance of any audio system no matter how good or Expensive it is , the room itself. Also these are systems and not a concoction of separates, this means SL have control of the entire audio chain with one single digital conversion just before the speaker terminals, no preamp no Crossover’s and no amplification in the conventional sense. All you need to do is add a source component, I use DCS and Rega TT with Dynavector Karat 17D3 cart and Dynavector P75 mk4 phono preamp and a Nordost power loom.
As for the Steinway piano connection SL is joint venture between Lyngdorf audio that was Based on the fact Peter Lyngdorf the man in the second video Made a promise to the Directors of Steinway & Sons without Doubt the Worlds most prestigious piano brand that he could Demonstrate that he could produce a system that even Steinway’s own pianists and tuners would not be able to tell the Difference between it and the real thing, that was the £240K Model D and this Peter Lyngdorf achieved.
I have heard the Model B which is stunning if you have the Room and can afford it, I sadly can’t. Steinway & Sons committed the Company to the joint venture and insisted that the Steinway name and logo was the only one Visable on the front of each component. You might ask why doesn’t SL normally feature in HIFI magazine Reviews or many high end audio shows? It’s because they don’t Aim at the well heeled professional musician and discerning cinephile and Audiophile. If you love music, do yourself a favour and arrange an audition.

@phoneman33 I am truly non-sarcastically happy for your find for you. However, it feels a bit like a James May pedantic vortex. Hope you enjoy the wit in that. I do so love James May. In total agreement that so many with so little have just so darn much to contribute. My vote on your observation there. But then verbal incontinence has always troubled man. |
