Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
Mofojo,Just think if you buy either,you may not need any other gear including cables and can sale them and pocket the difference.That’s how I have the means to buy the Lawrence Audio double bass speakers which I should get tomorrow.Best of luck to...

Yes,I’m getting the same info from the Lyngdorf USA rep. from a email that I received today.He said that if the 3400 sales well,and they certainly expect it to,that in a couple of yrs the 2170 would be revised and include a Ethernet input.The 3400... 
Used Sonus Faber vs. New Entry level SF?
Depends on what type of classical music,I listen to a lot of piano recordings and even those must have well defined deep bass to be convincing.Kenny.

Very good question but no definite answer yet.Time will tell.You may be able to snag a 2170 on the used market,they come up once in awhile,won’t be mine though.😃.Hopefully you will be able to get one in your system and hear what all the fuss is ab... 
Coherent Speakers from Canada
Yes,the drivers look like Radian coaxial drivers with a added tweeter waveguide,with possible options for different diaphragm materials.They look fairly well made but with the normal limitations of a compression driver I certainly wouldn’t be inte... 
ROON help needed
easola 01,To answer your question if I’m understanding what you are asking,Roon and tidal integrate together as one with the library and metadata incorporated in the Roon interface.Roon is also your music player software as well.I use Roon and tid... 
I'm not dreaming - these are great CD copies
It’s removing one form of jitter on the burned copy when the laser reads it,and a burned vs pressed cd can certainly sound better,lwr noise = more music.Kenny. 
Comparing Ribbon Tweeters - Golden Ear vs. Ascend Sierra
The Beyma tpl-150h is a very good sounding amt driver and would make a excellent replacement for a certain 7 tweeter array that’s popular.I do like it better crossed a little higher though,2k to 2.5k with a really nicely built single order 6db cro... 
Gotta love Nelson Pass
You got that right,complete opposite of some manufacturers now days,so sad.Kenny. 
Speakers "Disappearing"
I usually paint my speakers with the stealth paint that I got from a friend who used to work at McDonnell Douglas aircraft.Works really well.Kenny.

Unless yours is different than mine,it’s just a replaceable fuse and not a breaker.Mine is a small round sealed fuse that plugs into it’s little holder via 2 prongs.I don’t recall the brand name but I’m sure “Mouser” has them.Kenny.

There’s a 3amp 250 volt fuse on the board inboard of the incoming ac input.It’s replaceable but isn’t the same type as a hi fi tuning fuse.You would have to get very creative to modify,and I wouldn’t recommend unless you have some very good skills... 
Personas....7F vs 9H
Audiotroy,Thank you for your recommendation,My local dealer,audio advice just doesn’t get enough interest in upper model speakers but I’m gonna try and twist their arm to display the 3F.I really think if they make the investment it would spark mor... 
Gotta love Nelson Pass
Absolutely,I started with his gear with a 400a and my last was a Sit2,and had many of his designs in between.Just a genius and brilliant amp designer that’s still fulfilling his passions.Kenny. 
Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK?
I have a All in one Intergrated that really SUCKS,the bad sound right out of the listening room.The computer audiophile folks are really getting tired of a certain person also.Happy Listening,Kenny.
