Used Market Savings vs. The Dealer Experience
Wow. Do you do that when you buy a car? That is ridiculous to me.  
Used Market Savings vs. The Dealer Experience
Bought my Triton Ones which I later sold for 4k brand new.  
Used Market Savings vs. The Dealer Experience
I've only bought from 3 different dealers about 5 different items and I've gotten 20% everytime.  
Used Market Savings vs. The Dealer Experience
IMO it is totally acceptable to ask for a discount on new equipment. I am normally able to negotiate in the realm of a 20% discount.  
Technics vs. Focal
Have you heard the Aria line? I would agree a lot of Focals speakers had a somewhat hot high end. If anything these are bordering on mellow to my ears.  
Technics vs. Focal
The 906s punch above their weight. I have not heard the Technics but I would take the 906s over most sub 3k monitors.  
Bookshelf speakers under $1000
The Focal does everything well IMO.  
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
What you are describing is rather odd. It's an integrated amplifier and best used on its own. You can use the preouts and use the unit as a preamp through the analog out but to use it from a preamp to the 2170 to the power amp is not really possib...

Suggestions (based on experience) for power amp for Dynaudio Contour 20s, please
I have to have the volume up near 0 on the Lyngdorf to get the volume I want. Dont get me wrong it does sound very good. I think they were measured at around 85db @4ohms. I get the feeling the more power the better with these.  
Warmer sounding Solid State
You could try an eq like the Schiit Loki. I hear it's pretty transparent and it's only 150 bucks.  
Top Ten Rock Vocalists
Layne Staley. Hands down for me.  
Streaming services.
Deezer. They have lossless option and huge library.

I recently bought the Contour 20s and am pushing with the Lyngdorf TDIA2170 which is high current 170W at 4 ohms. I wish I had more power.I'm sure the Primaluna would sound great depending on your listening habits and how loud you like to play.
