A listening experience beyond conventional audio

Peter Lyngdorf presenting at a Steinway Lyngdorf and Steinway & Sons event in Vienna, standing beside a Steinway grand piano in front of an audience.

We are delighted to share a feature article by renowned audio journalist Doug Schneider, who attended our exclusive event in Vienna hosted together with Steinway & Sons during High End 2026.

Held at Steinway & Sons’ flagship showroom in the heart of Vienna, the event showcased a unique musical experience where a Steinway Spirio Model D concert grand piano was seamlessly integrated with a Steinway Lyngdorf audio system. The demonstration illustrated how live piano reproduction and state-of-the-art audio technology can work together to create an extraordinary listening experience that challenges traditional perceptions of music playback.

In his article, Doug Schneider describes the presentation as one of the highlights of his entire High End 2026 visit. He explores both the technical innovation behind the integration of Steinway Spirio and Steinway Lyngdorf systems and the emotional impact of experiencing a real Steinway piano performing alongside a world-class audio system.

Particularly noteworthy is his observation that the demonstration created a level of realism and immersion unlike anything he had encountered before, describing it as a listening experience that blurred the line between live performance and reproduced sound.

For us, the event reflected the vision that has guided the collaboration between Steinway & Sons and Peter Lyngdorf for nearly two decades: bringing listeners closer to the authentic sound, scale, and emotion of a live musical performance.

We are grateful to Doug Schneider for his thoughtful coverage and to everyone who joined us for this special evening in Vienna.

The Art of Integration Lounge at the 2026 Superyacht Technology Show

Steinway Lyngdorf, Nexgentec, and Eleusis Present The Art of Integration Lounge at the 2026 Superyacht Technology Show

Steinway Lyngdorf at Superyacht Technology show

At the 2026 Superyacht Technology Show, three leaders in high-performance technology—Steinway Lyngdorf, nexgentec, and Eleusis Digital Canvas—will jointly present The Art of Integration Lounge, a refined, design-led environment exploring how sound, digital infrastructure, and innovative display technologies can coexist seamlessly aboard today’s most advanced superyachts.

Conceived as a collaborative space rather than a traditional exhibition stand, The Art of Integration Lounge reflects a shared philosophy: technology should enhance life onboard without visual clutter, operational complexity, or compromise to performance. Across the experience, performance, reliability, and design are treated as equal priorities—mirroring the expectations of yacht owners, designers, shipyards, and technical decision-makers alike.

For nexgentec, the Superyacht Technology Show also marks a reintroduction of the brand under SL Audio A/S, reinforcing its long-term commitment to in-house engineering, product continuity, and uncompromising system reliability within the marine and luxury architectural sectors.

Sound, Engineered for the Sea

Within the lounge, Steinway Lyngdorf will showcase a selection of its latest marine and architectural audio solutions, including Steinway & Sons Marine loudspeakers, engineered to deliver reference-level performance in demanding onboard and outdoor environments. Also featured is Lyngdorf Audio’s new SB-75 passive stereo soundbar, a design-forward solution that delivers the authority and musicality of high-end loudspeakers in a discreet, space-conscious form.

Designed for seamless on-wall integration, the SB-75 offers an elegant alternative to conventional soundbars—making it ideally suited for yacht salons, media rooms, and owner’s suites where performance must coexist with architectural restraint. Custom sizes and finishes are available making it a perfect tool for custom installation partners.

Future-Proofed Audio Infrastructure

Complementing the listening experience, Nexgentec will present its advanced Audio-over-IP distribution platform, trusted aboard some of the world’s most technically sophisticated superyachts. Designed for flexibility, reliability, and streamlined integration, Nexgentec solutions enable centralized control, reduced cabling complexity, and scalable system architecture—supporting both new-build and refit projects with confidence.

Now operating as part of SL Audio A/S, Nexgentec continues to evolve its platform with the same engineering-led approach, supported by expanded in-house R&D, manufacturing resources, and long-term product stewardship. 

Digital Art, Reimagined

Rounding out The Art of Integration Lounge, Eleusis Digital Canvas will present Clio, its signature digital canvas created for superyachts and refined interior environments. Clio reimagines digital art, photography, and motion as an architectural element—integrated with intention rather than imposed.

Defined by ultra-high-resolution imagery, refined materiality, and intuitive control, Clio enhances atmosphere and visual storytelling while preserving a sense of calm and discretion. Within the lounge, Clio illustrates how digital art can exist in harmony with high-performance audio and intelligent infrastructure, contributing to immersive environments where technology supports experience, not distraction.

A Destination for Dialogue

The Art of Integration Lounge serves as a destination for thoughtful conversation—bringing together sound, infrastructure, and visual design in a setting that reflects how these technologies are experienced in real life, not just specified on paper.

Demonstrations and meetings will be available throughout the show, March 10-11 in Barcelona.  To schedule an appointment during the Superyacht Technology Show, please contact: Katherine Spiller, ks@steinwaylyngdorf.com

ISE 2025 Recap: A remarkable week in Barcelona

ISE 2025 Recap: A remarkable week in Barcelona

A white Model S Soundbar at ISE 2025

ISE 2025 has officially wrapped up, and what a week it was – a record-breaking attendance of 85.351 verified visitors from 168 countries. Likewise, for Steinway Lyngdorf, ISE 2025 was an outstanding platform to engage with partners, showcase our latest advancements, and strengthen our collaborations. At our booth, we presented a live demo of the Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar, powered by the P100 processor and A2 amplifier. We also introduced the brand-new BWS-210 in-wall woofer, expanding our woofer portfolio to seven models, from stackable installation solutions to extraordinary in-room designs with our signature high-gloss piano lacquer.

At our co-booth with Barco and Primetheater, we showcased the Model S Soundbar in high-gloss black with gold trim, while at our main booth, it was displayed in custom white with chrome trim, highlighting its design versatility. Another standout was the Model S-15 stored appropriately in an extravagant golden safe and placed next to a gold-plated sofa, both handcrafted by interieur design experts Boca Do Lobo from Portugal.

A highlight of the week was our exclusive Happy Hour in the Garden Lounge Area F, where our partners gathered to enjoy drinks while experiencing the Steinway & Sons Marine Speaker, a product designed for ultimate outdoor performance.

For those who couldn’t attend, watch as our Sales and Operations Manager Simon Schino presents the Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar (watch it here) and the new in-wall woofers (watch it here) in two interviews with Rave Pubs, and see our Sales Director in UK Charlie McClarron discuss the Lyngdorf FR-2 speaker and the Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar in a feature from Home Cinema Alliance (watch it here).

CEPro also visited our booth and after seeing the new Lyngdorf FR-2 and the Model S Soundbar commented “the Steinway Lyngdorf booth featured some of the most attractive speakers and soundbars on the market“. You can read their report here.
