Hi all,
I’m really interested in adding Trinnov to a home 2.2 mixed use music/movie/gaming (50/40/10%) system. I currently use a Lyngdorf TDAI-1120 but I’m interested in seeing what Trinnov can do in my non-ideal room.
Currently have appleTV+consoles going into my LG tv, and my TV outputting to Lyngdorf via HDMI (w/ eARC). I stream music to the Lyngdorf unit directly with tidal or airplay2.
I love the Lyngdorf since I can control the volume through my AppleTV or LG remote and it switches inputs easily; I can turn off the appleTV and my tv and the Lyngdorf turn off as well (hdmi CEC I think?)
Is there any way to replicate this with Trinnov optimizer added in?
My thoughts so far:
- go for a Trinnov altitude 16, but pay a very high price to only use 10% of it…would still need a Wiim or blue sound streamer for tidal/airplay2, dual fans are unappealing…
- add a Trinnov Nova and a power amp — not as easy to use, and the Lyngdorf only outputs analog out, so I might reduce signal quality by not keeping the signal digital? Worried about this chain affecting lip sync as well. The Nova is a pro unit and would have a steep learning curve but I’d be happy to tinker.
- ditch the Lyngdorf and replace it with a hifirose streamer (I believe they have HDMI CEC, eARC, excellent streaming connectivity), connect that to a Trinnov Nova and power amp
- Trinnov amethyst instead of Nova? Not sure this makes sense except perhaps for ease of use, but it’s very very expensive
- ditch the idea of Trinnov being that much better than roomperfect and enjoy what I have (most practical and likely option)
Love the spirited and informed discussions here and I welcome any and all advice/criticisms!
