A set of Lyngdorf DP-1 and BW-1 loudspeakers, driven by a CD-1 cd-player and a TDAI 2200 / SDA 2175 amplifier combination
SDAI 2175

Product


SDAI 2175By combining analog audio circuitry with digital control the SDAI 2175 integrated amplifier offers very high performance and amazing value for money.
The open natural sound reproduction and massive power output for impressive grip and drive simply makes this the best integrated amplifier in it's class!

The compact SDAI 2175 integrated amplifier is a wolf in sheep's clothing - delivering massive 2 x 200W in a very refined way with an open and natural sound. This is made possible by the numerous technical refinements throughout the amplifier, and optimum performance in the input section. The inputs are selected through the highest quality low-loss relays with double gold-plated contacts - relays of a quality normally only used in the highest performing measuring equipment and ensure complete isolation between inputs and a loss-less selection of sources.

Impressing everybody from the critical reviewer to the audio enthusiast the SDAI 2175 has become a winner all over the world.

 

Technologies


Semi Digital Amplifier
PWM"Semi Digital" is in Lyngdorf terms a "digital" switching amplifier driven by an analog input.  

In principle, the output stage of most switching amplifiers has the same working principle.
PWM = Pulse Width Modulation is simply a matter of variable open/close time of the transistors.
Simplified, you can compare the transistors in the output stage to two switches.

Volume Control

The volume is controlled by a high-precision, digitally-controlled analog attenuator, allowing 0.1 dB steps over a 100dB range as with other fully digital Lyngdorf products. The balance between channels can be programmed to reflect different left-to-right speaker sensitivities. That balance can be maintained from the highest levels all the way down to absolute silence.

Fully Balanced Signal Path
The amplifier is fully balanced from input to output if driven with a balanced source, and if not driven with a balanced source, the signal is immediately transformed to a balanced signal.
The fully balanced design gives clear advantages regarding hum and noise suppression - also from other sources.

SDAI2175 - Hifi &

 Cinema em Casa 

June 2010
Audio & Cinema em Casa, Portugal
SDAI 2175

 “the sound is crystal clear, as if nothing existed between the CD player and the speakers”

“Control capacity abounds; this is clear on the lower registers, where one can find a mix of qualities seldom found together. The woofers display an exuberant articulation, working at speeds one would expect from a midrange, and the result is a bass deep and musical, but also dry and controlled”

“if the Lyngdorf is satisfying at all volume levels, it is impressive to discover how loud it can go without ever losing control”
