thanks to you for your answers

but that's not what I asked .. I didn't ask what turns off before.. .the amplifier or the Linto..

. I would like to know who has the LINTO mc phono if when he turns off the phono without turning off first the amplifier hears the noise bumb in the speakers.

 Thank you. Luigi

Dear @luigilamarca  :  I think that the precise answer could comes by Linn directly:

because maybe the problem could be between the Linto and the line stage where is connected , I don´'t know. In any case is better if you make the direct Linn contact:

The answer to your question is -

Nobody knows, because nobody would turn a phono stage off unless they either muted the preamp/amplifer, changed the input, or turned the preamp or amp off first.

I you change the input selector off of phono, and you get a thump the Lingo is putting a spike into the system on turnoff which should not happen in a competently designed component.

I do not know if the Lingo is competently designed.

All phono stages should have a readily accessible mute switch which should be used whenever manipulating the tonearm. If you have a mute switch on your preamp, that can be used in stead but, every system that plays records needs that mute switch. 

It sounds to me that the Lingo does not have a relay on it's output and the OP is just hearing the power supply run down. If there is no noise in normal operation i is not a problem at all.

Luigi only wants to know whether other owners of the Linto have had a similar experience to his. Since my dear mom often used to call me Luigi, I am empathetic.

Personally, I’m a belt and suspenders kind of guy. I mute the preamp and then I always shut down amplifiers before preamplifier.
