While much of the hi-fi-related focus here at TechRadar is aimed at turntables and active speaker systems, the fact remains that many of the TechRadar team — myself very much included — are mad about music, and being able to listen to it in its best-possible quality, in particular.
Which is why I get excited about products like the Lyngdorf TDAI-2210, a premium, compact streaming amplifier that has the function of three separate components. Being an integrated amplifier, it handles both pre- and power amplification (and if preferred, can be used solely to do one or the other), and it has a streamer built in, providing instant access to whichever online music service you use.
And, aside from being a jack-of-all-trades, it’s highly powerful too, capable of delivering up to 210 watts per channel into 4 ohms (if you’re not totally clued up on hi-fi jargon, that’s a lot!). There’s plenty more it can do, and it has some extra technical wizardry up its sleeve, and you can read all about it in a full in-depth Australian review at our sister site What Hi-Fi ( that review first appeared in Australian Hi-Fi mag, which I also happen to be editor of).
