Hi all,
All the Devialet speakers specify better than 100dB SINAD (under THD+N 0.001%)...
So technically, there should not be any/much hiss audible with ear at the tweeter (with the speakers ON of course).
Is this true?
For Reactors? For Classic/Silver/Gold?

I have tried Reactors 600, a Premier Classic and Premier Golds — I have never heard hiss from the Golds and Reactors. Very slight hiss from the Classic.

Extremely little hiss, even with the ear right against the tweeter. I’ve owned the best Genelecs and Neumanns and Devialet Phantoms have less hiss on an order of magnitude. And the Phantom Golds are as good if not better sonically than even something like Kii and D&D. Devialet made a revolutionary speaker with the Gold. I’m interested to see where they go from here.

Thanks everyone!
Some varying reports.
Some have heard hiss with Classic, some with Silver.
Some with tiny amount of hiss with Golds (only ear on tweeter), some without any audible hiss with Golds.
Sounds like the newest models are fine from 3meters back? Completely inaudible ?

As far as I can recall after 2016 ADH1 devices were not further produced. All Phantoms including Silver and Classic (previously called White) received ADH2 circuits. Gold Phantoms always only had ADH2 circuit.
