Lyngdorf TDAI-3400
@charles1dad I originally was dealing with the dealer, but he encouraged me to reach out to Lyngdorf. Lyngdorf was responsive initially, but totally unresponsive after telling me they would get back to me through their engineering department. I su... 
Lyngdorf TDAI-3400
@gallus It’s direct dac-amp why would expect it not to convert the analog to pwm digital? Why do you think there’s something inherently wrong with this? You can by an ADC for $25 that will work to convert vinyl or a AM/FM tuner to digital and feed...

My Art Audio Diavolo SET 300b Tube Amplifier sounds phenomenally good through the Lyngdorf with the Room Perfect properly setup under a 2nd Speaker Setup while using the Preamp output on the Lyngdorf and my Luxman AS-55 amplifier switcher to switc... 
Tekton Double Impacts
@david_ten Yeah I lost that bet with purchase of the Lyngdorf TDAI 3400.  Definitely a keeper for me.  The Room Correction makes a very dramatic difference regardless whether I use the Art Audio Diavolo SET 300b Tube Amplifier or the internal clas... 
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
@waltersalas Glad you got your unit all setup!

@recroom The Lyngdorf TDAI 3400 is better beyond the extra power in added features that you may or may not care about, but my speakers are 96db and I bought the 3400. I couldn’t be happier. Call Neal at Sound Science and tell him Jonathan Carcopo ...

@olesno Thanks for the kind words.  Take your time. We will be here!

@evolvist If you mean network streaming for RoonReady, Roon will convert the dsd to pcm if need be, but that being said the DSD section is missing in RoonReady under device setup, so it may only support flac files. I don’t have any dsd files or I ...

@olesno Thanks for your review on the Encores and Lyngdorf TDAI 3400 combination!  I wondered if it was you on the Tektons Worldwide Owners Facebook group I was chatting with!  Now I know who you are in both places so I can keep things straight in...

@essrand congrats on the tdai-3400. Sorry for the delay, I forgot to follow this thread. Yes Neal is a good guy.  Since buying my unit, I've referred 2 people to him already that have made Lyngdorf purchases as well.I'm very happy with my TDAI-340...

@charles1dad Yes I listen to jazz a lot. I’m a big Ella Fitzgerald and Satchmo, et al fan. I did play some Wynton Marsalis when I first turned the Lyngdorf on initially and it sounded very good even without Room Perfect setup. I really haven’t pla...

So the Lyngdorf TDAI-3400 sounds very good with my Encores. It's a very smooth, natural, and neutral sounding presentation. It's a little less forward than my Nords Class D NCORE amps + Benchmark DAC2 HGC. The Room Perfect definitely perfected th...

Received my TDAI-3400 today.  It's a very well thought out device and very easy to setup with Room Perfect. I did 4 measurements to get to 96%.  The sound quality did improve subtlety in the bass and the delineation between instruments improved no...

@mr_m Oh, yes I completely agree with that, I think I misunderstood you.  I thought you were saying that the effect was caused by vinyl playback, but yes I agree the signal was transferred from tape to vinyl absolutely.  I must say it's pretty imp...

@mr_m I asked my buddy who mastered the digital recording off the original vinyl with a very refined vinyl analog playback/ADC recording setup and he said it was mastertape print-through since I was hearing the next line in the song before it actu...
