To quote ....
Phono input is one of the quietest I've ever heard. Even with a low voltage from the pickup, there is no audible noise from his own RIAA step in Expert 1000 Pro.
If this is true, then a big improvement over my slightly hissy D800 phono stage!
This is also something I noticed as I have tested other amps with quieter RIAA than my D400 so the question is have Devialet changed the RIAA or does the reviewer have bad ears
