Thanks for sharing sch06. The DI speakers are so very intriguing to me and I am sure they would be great with the Lyngdorf.
Another Aphile I am corresponding with uses the Lyngdorf 2170 and is selling a very high end, well reviewed, and expensive set of DHT monoblock amps. He has the DI speakers also.
What folks have to know is Lyngdorf started the whole digital amp thing long ago and does not approach their designs like ICE, Hypex, Pascal, and the like. They have engineered a completely different approach so they cannot be lumped in with other Class D amps. Forget any and all preconceived notions about Class D or simple one box solutions with the 2170. Plus the room correction, dac, and SOTA volume control are all part of the package that just works beautifully together.
Care must be taken with a good quality power cord/conditioning to get the most out of the 2170. The Core Power Technology products are great with the 2170 as well as Furutech Alpha Nano power cables. Also, the unit should be left on and not in standby for best sound. It only pulls some 20 watts so no big deal. It runs very cool and only weights 19 pounds. No tube expense, heat, expensive tube upgrades, and replacing. No worries about little ones touching the amp and getting burned or playing music 10 hours a day, every day.
Just another option for those wanting a simple and beautiful sounding rig solution.
Lastly, for those of you comfortable with mods and letting go of your warranty😁 I know of and performed a mod that yields stunning results with this unit. I even let Lyngdorf know about because I was so excited. Doubt they are as excited as me however! Ha!
Enjoy your DI speakers!
