I myself can really only hear it when my ears are very near to the Devialet and the units do differ one to another. My plasma TV is a lot "louder", that I can hear at a 3m distance especially in bright scenes. I do have to say that the "ambiance noise" in my room seems to be ca. 36dB at minimum, so if one has a very quiet home it could be you'd hear it sooner.
I seem to recall reading about this on the Devialet site in relation to the power supply unit. I can certainly hear a "whirring" noise within a foot of the unit but certainly not 3 metres.
