Steinway Lyngdorf Launches the Model C Music System Extending Family of Masterpiece Systems

Posted on: Tuesday, 19 August 2008, 09:00 CDT

Steinway Lyngdorf, the company which created a new standard in the global audio industry with the introduction of the Steinway & Sons Model D Music System in September 2007, announced today the commercial launch of the Steinway & Sons Model C Music System. The Model C Music System expands Steinway Lyngdorf's series of integrated, fully digital music systems - distinctive innovations considered to be masterpieces by industry leaders and audiophiles alike. Steinway Lyngdorf is a collaboration between Steinway & Sons, the renowned maker of the world's finest pianos, and Peter Lyngdorf, Europe's preeminent audio manufacturer.

Conceived from the same DNA as the flagship Model D Music System, the Model C Music System further exemplifies Steinway Lyngdorf's fusion of master craftsmanship, perfected technology and design artistry. The sleekly built Model C Music System features two floor-standing dipole speakers and twin boundary woofers, paired with the iconic pedestal head unit first seen with the signature Model D Music System.

"Internally, we recognized that our discerning customers, both individuals as well as commercial establishments, would appreciate a music system that would offer the same exceptional sound quality as the Model D Music System but would be ideal for more intimate listening spaces," said Peter Lyngdorf, founder of Steinway Lyngdorf. "In specific cases, existing owners of our Model D Music System also expressed their desire to acquire additional systems that encapsulate the DNA of the Model D but that would fit perfectly into more intimate living spaces, such as their bedrooms or dining rooms. The Model C is created to fulfill precisely this need while adhering to all of our uncompromising core values," Mr. Lyngdorf added.

From conception through to production, Steinway Lyngdorf's team of skilled engineers and craftsmen ensure that every aspect of the Model C Music System adheres to Steinway Lyngdorf's commitment to unparalleled performance, design excellence and the finest craftsmanship. The Model C utilizes the same fully digital amplification technology first presented in the signature Model D Music System. Through the proprietary digital link employed from the onset of the audio signal to the loudspeaker drivers, the listener is assured outstanding sound quality at any volume. The fully digital amplification technology eliminates the distortion commonly experienced in analog amplifiers and allows for very low power consumption. With the extraordinarily efficient amplifiers, the electronics do not overheat, ensuring that owners enjoy enhanced longevity for their Model C Music System.

Steinway Lyngdorf's patented, 3-dimensional room adaptation technology, RoomPerfect(TM), is also incorporated in the Model C Music System, enabling it to adapt to the acoustic characteristics of the listening environment and thus delivering exceptional sound throughout the entire listening room. While offering studio-quality sound for all musical genres, the Model C is particularly ideal for lovers of jazz, blues and R&B as the strong bass sounds are enhanced by the twin boundary woofers.

The Model C Music System is offered in elegant, classic black lacquer with gold accents alluding to the signature look of Steinway & Sons pianos and is also available in a broad range of custom wood and colored lacquer finishes with a choice of gold or chrome accents to reflect its owner's personal taste and decor styles. Additionally, Steinway Lyngdorf extends a bespoke service where exotic finishes are made available on a one-on-one consultation basis to individuals who seek a unique finish to complement their signature styles.

Steinway Lyngdorf's intelligent modular design allows clients to change the finish of their music system at any time, and in the case of accidental damage, to replace individual parts without repairing the entire system as is the case with many traditional audio products today. This same modular approach also permits electronic upgrades, keeping the Model C Music System up-to-date with the latest digital platforms. This breakthrough in home audio delivers truly riveting performance encased in the finest craftsmanship.

Private listening experiences are available by appointment only through the company's sales offices as well as its network of certified master dealers and installers. Steinway Lyngdorf and its partners have united to create a thorough set of guidelines that are consistent with their reputations for precision and excellence. In order to ensure the utmost quality, specialists from each company are trained and certified by Steinway Lyngdorf. In addition to a meticulous installation process, system owners can look forward to continued technical support and expertise from this network of specialists.
