Steinway Lyngdorf’s first soundbar wins “Best Product” award

Steinway Lyngdorf takes home “Best Product” award from Technology Designer Magazine for its first soundbar, the Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar. The award is part of the 2023 Performance Home Award competition which recognizes significant achievements in products and creative artistic design. The winners are selected by a panel of design professionals including architects, builders, interior designers as well as consumer electronic industry influencers. The live US debut will be at CEDIA Expo in Denver, CO where visitors will be able to see – and hear – the Model S Soundbar in person for the first time.

“We are incredibly proud to take home “Best Product” from Technology Designer magazine for the second year in a row. We’re also proud that this soundbar was not only made with our partners in mind, but in fact, this was design was literally shaped by our partners requests. We involved our partners along the way from initial concept to final design.   We’re grateful to work with partners around the world who share their time and insights with us, helping us to always raise the bar higher,” said Steinway Lyngdorf CEO and CTO, Thomas Birkelund.

The first soundbar to feature RoomPerfect™

Renowned for blending legacy craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology, Steinway Lyngdorf entered the soundbar market with a state-of-the-art solution building on the award-winning Steinway & Sons Model S speaker. The Model S Soundbar is the first soundbar to feature RoomPerfect™, an advanced room correction technology that automatically adjusts the sound to fit the acoustics of a room, ensuring exceptional audio quality in any environment.

Full-range experience and 1,600 watts of digital amplification

The soundbar also integrates proprietary Air Motion Transformer (AMT) tweeters, known for their ability to deliver crystal-clear high frequencies with minimal distortion. The AMTs are complemented by dedicated mid-range and bass drivers delivering a full-range experience in a streamlined design. Powered by 1,600 watts of pure digital amplification, this combination of cutting-edge technologies and Danish craftsmanship ensures an immersive and precise audio experience, with excellent stereo imaging and expansive soundstage.

Distinctive Steinway & Sons aesthetics

FIDELITY Award 2024 for Model A

FIDELITY magazine from Germany made a full Steinway Lyngdorf tour: They visited Steinway & Sons in Hamburg to experience how the pianos are made, listened to the legendary Model D at an interieur designer’s place, visited the Steinway Lyngdorf production facility in Denmark, and finished the tour with listening to the Model A speakers at the German distributor Drei-H. They were so impressed that they awarded the complete Model A system to be one of the product highlights of the year. Here is their official jury comment: 

“The Steinway Lyngdorf sound systems merge the tradition and build quality of Steinway & Sons pianos with the intricate hi-fi technology from Lyngdorf: The electronics of the Model A are housed separately and feature an integrated network player as well as digital room correction which ensures that this exquisite system always plays at its best, no matter the environment. The Danish manufacturer’s unique digital amplifiers provide exceptional dynamics and musicality. Is this just a loudspeaker or actually art? “

Best vs. best challenge

Martin Dew from Home Theater Forum has compared a Steinway Lyngdorf system with a Lyngdorf Audio system. The goal was not necessarily to identify the finest home theater, but to pinpoint the audio characteristics.

Below, you can read his final thoughts, and at the bottom of the page you can find a link to the whole comparison.

“Okay, if money were no object, I would order a Steinway integrated system in a shot. Done. That was easy. It is ultra-cool to have that name embossed on the same multi-stage gloss lacquer used for the company’s legendary pianos. In terms of performance, you just get the feeling with the Steinway gear that there is nothing standing between you and the source…and I mean nothing. If that gives them a slight edge over Lyngdorf, then so be it, but both systems are rock solid and phenomenal in execution.

 

I will not pretend that there is anything attractive about the price of these systems, but we all need tech we can dream about. It may be that the wizardry found in the RoomPerfect calibration system will trickle down into more affordable components one day. In the meantime, Lyngdorf Audio is making some of the magic available to less well-heeled clients in the form of the MP- processors and SDA- amps. If you are planning to spend $10k on a projector, for example, then you should definitely be thinking about Lyngdorf for your electronics.

 

Finally, I so appreciate what Steinway Lyngdorf is doing for the audio community. Their products have nothing short of made me re-evaluate what it is I love about music and movies. And that’s saying something.”
