Yes, it is an interesting idea. There are a few uncrown points
in there. The lithium iron phosphate are fine as a storage but how they impact sound?
If you look at the experience of the people who use batteries for grid biasing
then you will see that each battery’s topology has own impact to sound. I am
sure that iron phosphate has it is sound, not that it is better or worse then led
but the sonic property of led batteries is kind of known…
The price is another point. The $35K per unit? Hm, this is
kind of way out there. Any IT regenerator of the same class will be around $5-$7K.
The fact that they put more expensive butteries in there would do great for automobile
but I am not sure that it is necessary for audio regenerator. I am not so huge
in the idea to run playback from butteries. If you do run it from butteries
then do not need any regeneration but run your electronics directly from butteries’
DC. You do not need any generation of sinusoid, amplification the voltage, transformers,
rectifiers, filtering and the rest of crap. If we do use AC then I would rather
prefer the generator would not have any sonic difference if it work in connected
or disconnected mode to mains.
The third thing is that comment they have in their web site.
They said that they lower distortions by real time harmonics correction and
this is a bit problematic. To notion is not new and it looks spectacular what
you measure but the reality is a bit more sinister. To implement the harmonics
correction there is no other ways then to introduce a low pass stunt capacitor
at input. There is no other options topologically. The presence of the parallel
capacitor at AC die if killing lower bass, no matter what you do. This is my
observation at least.
