Lyngdorf TDAI 2170 vs 3400

Have you heard either, or any amps in the category?  I tried the 2170 after the rave reviews from the threads on the audio sites.  I should say that trying gear out is part of the hobby and fun for me.   I should have stuck with my gut that most of these guys don’t know what they are talking about .  Not only did I sell mine but you will be hard pressed to find any one of these “guru’s“ that  still owns one.  

From what I hear the sound quality between the 2 is not much different. Anything over 90db I would say the 2170 is plenty. I've used some inefficient Dynaudio Contour 20s and it could have used some more horsepower. I also find the 2170 looks much sleeker. 

I have not heard either unit (no dealers within my vicinity). I was intrigued by the reviews and the room correction potential.
What I have auditioned is listed below in order of my preference.
Luxman 550 AXII
Luxman 505 UXII
Naim Supernait 3
Anthem STR (room correction was not engaged, amp sounded very flat)

Aside from the above, I am also interested in a used Pass Integrated or Mark Levinson 585 (this may be a topic for another forum inquiry though!).

I own the Lyngdorf 3400 and have heard the 2170.

If you don't need a streamer/Roon endpoint, internet radio and more power. Go for the 2170, it has slightly better sound (I think, haven't done A/B comparison).
Yes, Bjeiesen is right. The praise for Lyngdorf on this website is over the top, but they are not that bad.
For $5500, you get DAC, integrated amp, room correction, streamer with the 3400.
You would be hard-pressed to find a system at $5500 (new price) that would beat the SQ of Lyngdorf and do everything it does. You would have to spend 8-10K (new price).

But that also depends on what you listen to. Rock, pop, jazz is not bad, but instrumental you might want to put some tubes before the speakers which is what I do. Lyngdorf 3400 connected to a tube amp to the speakers sounds quite amazing.

Also depends on your room, if you really need room correction go with lyngdorf it is a no-brainer, if not, you can look around. 

In the end like anything it all depends on your priorities, budget, music you listen to, need for RC, and convenience.

Lyngdorf with its app and remote is insanely convenient and can be left on all the time, which equals more music listening time.
