*WARNING* SAM and Bypass dangerous bug
#1
Warning. DO NOT use SAM while using Bypass/Pass thru function.

At least on my D400 this is not good at all. I get a digital sounding interference noise followed by a large pop. Only occurs when SAM is on and the bypass turned on (to watch TV, BlueRays, Playstation, etc). Bypass is connected to my Anthem receiver. I've never had this problem with my previous amp when using bypass with the Anthem. It's definitely the Devialet causing this and more specifically it's only when SAM is turned on. The companion will actually drop off after the loud digital sounding pop and then it will come back on by itself but the noise and pop will occur again, usually in a minute or two. It's very loud and you can actually see the drivers move violently when the pop occurs. Scary stuff.

Work around is to ALWAYS remember to turn off SAM before you use Bypass. Would hate to damage my speakers.
