botrytis Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 hmm - battery power to your audio system.... Stromtank. Designed by the gent who actually designed MBL speakers. He sold the company and went into alternative energy and started working LiPO4 batteries and they are perfect for audio. Current: Daphile on an AMD A10-9500 with 16 GB RAM DAC - TEAC UD-501 DAC Pre-amp - Rotel RC-1590 Amplification - Benchmark AHB2 amplifier Speakers - Revel M126Be with 2 REL 7/ti subwoofers Cables - Tara Labs RSC Reference and Blue Jean Cable Balanced Interconnects Link to comment

I listened to the Stromtank at the LA Audio Show (one of those in LA anyway) in 2018 or 2017. It was the big one, and I forget the rest of the system...I was pretty impressed with the sound. Of course the problem with such systems is that of course they're going to sound great so I didn't know how much to attribute to the Stromtank. I remember explicitly thinking that battery isolation from mains was the best way forward, just not at THOSE prices. Link to comment

While you're in the business of telling me on what I can and can't do, how about advising me on how many times I can go to the toilet during the day, and how often I must change my underwear - surely life is not worth living, unless there is a rigid set of rules that determine everything ... eh? 🤪. That's bullshit Frank. You should read the online news more often or get up to date in this area.! These days you can't even toot the car horn even once as you arrive or leave .without risking a fine. No, I don't agree with some of the powers the Police have in these areas, however many of these powers have resulted due to accidents involving children. It would appear that I have upset you by pointing out that the Inverter you purchased is really only suitable for short time use when away from mains power and was never designed to do what you require of it. How a Digital Audio file sounds, or a Digital Video file looks, is governed to a large extent by the Power Supply area. All that Identical Checksums gives is the possibility of REGENERATING the file to close to that of the original file. PROFILE UPDATED 13-11-2020 Link to comment
