Steinway Lyngdorf elevates audio excellence with Merging Technologies' ZMAN module

The new partnership has enhanced the brand’s multichannel processors

Steinway Lyngdorf (SL Audio A/S), a renowned pioneer in audio technology, was founded in Denmark by audio innovator Peter Lyngdorf in 2005. Under the prestigious brand icons of Steinway & Sons and Lyngdorf Audio, the brand designs, develops, and manufactures cutting-edge sound systems and components for the film and music industries.

SL Audio recently reached out to Merging Technologies to develop a new partnership to further its world-renowned products.

The ability to deliver high-quality, reliable audio in these demanding environments underscores the versatility and adaptability of SL Audio's offerings.
