I never play music this loud and I only hear it when I move the volume control, not when it sits in a given position.
I wonder if other users hear the same. This is clearly a bug, but as I have not seen others reporting it until now I assumed it was my 250 misbehaving. If many have the same problem we should report it to Devialet.
I have just tried this on my D800. In the +dB range, nothing playing, SAM enabled, the system appears more or less silent. But much as oggs says, there is a kind of bassy blip noise, not too loud, coinciding with each 0.5dB change made when in the +dB range. In the -dB range with SAM enabled, silence. With SAM disabled, silence even running up through the +dB range. Not something I would worry about too much because this sound does not occur when not adjusting the volume, and I don't ever use the amps in the +dB range anyway. It would be interesting to know the reasons for this though.
