I don't agree.
I'm not saying people aren't having issues.
But my LOMCs are hiss-free at -15 dB and lower unless I put my ear on the tweeter.
If I crank it up to -3 dB, the hiss becomes obvious.
Either there are big variances in the phono stage quality, or maybe a lot of people aren't setting the gain properly.
Stereophile also measured the noise floor as very low.
