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.

I agree with Tmsorosk, I have dimmers and hear nothing audible through the system.
Good recommendation Al, I have Lutron Maestro dimmers and do listen with them dimmed most of the time....maybe I have tin ears, LOL, but I do not hear any difference from all the way up, dimmed, or off.
Sonofjim, I agree...love my dimmers and have zero interference that I can detect.
