With the volume maxed out, yes, dead silence with most inputs, but of course still a little noise from the phono (I am hoping the new Spectral phono will be dead quiet as well); by contrast, in my most recent visit to the dealer, their set-up clearly had a lot of noise. The results are also audible with music, as jet-black backgrounds and exceptional low-level retrieval. I feel it's a bit of an art to kill noise all around.
Great!
Can you share the way you get youre system silence?
I thought that i know all in and outs about connecting the gear.
But it is def. Not silence.
If you have tips and tricks i'll be glad to hear that.
