Hi Everyone!
Alright, so I followed the steps and did my best, but I'm not sure if Audacity recorded the output. However, I also sent over a recording of the hiss that I took from a dB meter I had on my phone. The reality is if I set the phono stage at the required settings for my cartridge without my SUT, there is a massive amount of audible hiss at settings as low as -20 of gain on the Devialet.
I'm glad Mathieu is looking into this, but its just surprising to me that he's indicating this should be a "normal" amount of hiss. In fact, when I got my first 250, I thought the unit was defective and actually sent it back. It seems that anyone at Devialet headquarters can just listen for themselves by plugging a unit into some speakers. I hope he tries this too.
Anyway, I'm really excited to see the number of people on this forum joining in on trying to resolve this issue. Not only are we all passionate about music, we are passionate about what we all know would be the most compelling equipment on the market. I'm glad we're all helping to make the Expert Pro the best it can be.
