| Lyngdorf TDAI-3400 @grannyring I saw your message to walter above that you had some ideas for tweaks to get us closer to the tube like mids that the Line Magnetic SET amp can introduce, would you mind sharing those as well? Very curious as this was one thing that I ... | |
| Lyngdorf TDAI-3400 Wow, I had not realized that there were quite a few Line Magnetic owners that have also experimented with the 3400. I just jumped on the 3400 that was on sale as well and am really looking forward to having this be the primary amp for my system. A... | |
| Music Server - The Search Begins @snackeyp did you end up finding a server that works best for the digital side with your Lyngdorf? Curious as I am in the same place as you - current streaming from my PS Audio Directstream and just got a Lyngdorf 3400 as well. | |
| Bookshelf speakers for near-field (desktop) use @freediver Haven't looked into the Quad before. Is that even enough to power the Excite X14's? | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. Well, ended up picking up a 3400 after doing some reading .It looks like it is an all in one solution where there is no need to do HT Bypass anymore through my integrated. I can move the Anthem receiver to do duty elsewhere and have the 3400 proce... | |
| PS Audio Directstream Junior Owner - Still beneficial to buy a separate server/streamer? The DSJ already has the bridge built in :) The Directstream Senior would require a separate Bridge II to be installed for streaming | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like The 590AXII that I have tried at home for the past week with my Spendor D9's warms up fairly quick. Even at peak though, the heat is really not bad at all. I can keep my hand on it so that may tell you something. It is a great sounding amp - one t... | |
| Gryphon vs Luxman vs Accuphase Alright, now after having some time with the Luxman 509X and 590AXII, I have some thoughts compared to my Line Magnetic 805ia with rolled tubes... The past 2 weeks, I have had the opportunity to audition the Luxman 509X and 590AXII integrated am... | |
| Gryphon vs Luxman vs Accuphase @rwbadley I think it really depends on what you need. The 509X provides a little more flexibility due to its higher power output. It is an amp that will handle pretty much any speaker you want to throw at it. If you have power hungry speakers or t... | |
| Gryphon vs Luxman vs Accuphase I was lucky enough to find a great local dealer who lent me both the 509X and now the 590AXII. Gotta say, those Class A watts really make a difference. I have decently efficient speakers in the Spendor D9's and the 30W per channel is more than eno... | |
| To use a preamp with my Line Magnetic 805 integrated amp, or not? Just a quick update here. I did work with Don to get the preamp fixed and this was sent back to me to try with my Line Magnetic. After about a week of extensive listening, I struggled to hear a big difference between using the preamp on the pre-in... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like @erik_squires It is Accuphase that is a lot more expensive in the US than Luxman. It used to be that Luxman was quite a bit more pricey than in Japan as well but following a change in the US distributor, the prices came down quite drastically. | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like Wanted to give my piece to this. I just brought home the 509X for an in home audition with my Spendor D9's. The amps that I have heard for a reasonable amount of time include my own Line Magnetic 805ia (with NOS and fairly pricey new issue tubes),... | |
| Gryphon vs Luxman vs Accuphase Got a chance to audition the Luxman 509X from a great person and dealer locally. First thing I was extremely impressed with was the build quality. It is cliche to hear that something is built like a tank but this thing looks and feels like it will... | |
| Gryphon vs Luxman vs Accuphase @denon1 interesting notes regarding your experience. Surprised to hear that big a difference was due to the cable when the Silver Eclipse has great reviews elsewhere. It really does all come down to system synergy. My speaker cables are Clear Day ... |
