Yes, that describes it. This is THE characteristic noise when there is a defect in the Pure Power unit. As far as I know, nobody knows exactly what electromechanical manufacturing flaw causes this. As you remember, i also had this issue. Then, my Pure Power failed completely. Then after a lot of effort and time, I got my replacement, which has been completely silent. It's a bit of a roll of the dice until Damien and Richard figure out what is causing this.

If you are wiling to invest more space and money into more batteries then get rig AC part from your amplification and go fully disconnected DC power.

This would be fun. I often have fantasized about this, but it would be a lot of work modifying all the circuits around the rectifiers, etc. After all that, it will certainly affect the sound, but will it be a positive or negative change?
