Well, with my unit, you are right under one condition. It does not matter if I am on the battery or the ac line as long as the unit is connected, it sounds the same but it does not perform good. However if I am on the battery and I disconnect the regen from the ac, either by physically taking the plug off the wall, or switching the interrupter switch off, then there is a great lowering off the noise floor. The unit performs great from just the battery disconnected from the wall. I emailed you about this but we could not find a solution. You thought, it was a fault off either ac or my system components. I checked and rechecked everything about my other gear, they have been checked by technicians too. For ac, I have direct dedicated line from the pole as well. Everything works silently without purepower connected. The ground has been checked by technicians and there was no fault...
In the end, for the last two months I took the unit out of my system and now it is a lot more silent. I can not have same sound everyday which is bad but the noise is really lower and this has become my preference. I wish the unit performed as if it disconnected from the mains all the time. I even thought about adding lots of batteries and listen through battery only. I can add 8 more batteries on top of 4 in my battery pack (each battery pack has 4 batteries) and my charger in the regen can still take care of it. It would mean about an hour of listening to music which is not so long as I listen to at least 2 hours and generally longer...
ps. I checked stromtank but it is too costly! and I do not have the chance to audition one at home...Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
