Is a dimmer noisy when it's turned OFF?

Friends, my wife wants to add a rheostat to the dining room ceiling lamp. I know that dimmers are big sources of electrical noise, could will it have any effect on my listening room power when it's turned completely off? Just want to be sure.

Zero crossing dimmer is key. Cheap dimmers cause all kinds of noise. Here is what I learned posted in a non audiophile forum...
