Yet another Dual Mono Configuration Glitch!

[GuillaumeB]

Another bug discovered on D400!!!

when i access the Tone Menu from the physical remote to adjust the SAM % the Slave unit shuts down! Only Master stays on and its display shows the SAM % dialled. Once i exit from the Tone menu, the Slave unit kick back and begins the start up sequence and then back to normal!

Has anyone here experienced the same?

Never had this with my D800. Sorry.

is it my bad luck? Or could it be that the dual mono is really swarming with bugs?!!!!

When I first got my 800 (then 500!) in November 2013, I had issues with "clicks" and "pops" when changing source (one of which was configured as a pass thru). On a few occasions I also had the AES input playing music through the pass thru (bypass input) which was a little disconcerting given the very loud volume level! It took a few months to resolve, so yes... I've had my fair share of issues!

These days I run a very simple config and try and tinker as little as possible. I don't bother using any of the inputs on the companion for example and pretty much stick to the basic settings with the remote etc. Wifi is disabled.

I avoid AIR as I wouldn't be able to tolerate dropouts on a £20k + system. As to white noise I think I would have returned my units by now.

With that said, and in my current setup, I couldn't be any happier. I still believe the dual mono is one of the best sub-£50k amps around, if not the best.

Possibly my only complaint if you can call it that, is that the Devialet doesn't have different digital filters à la dCS. Given its extreme transparency not all material sounds perfect. I'm all for euphonics if it helps me to enjoy my music better.
