Dave sounds like a terrific addition to your excellent line of offereings. best of luck.charles
Another thing to note is that this basic unit can be used for ANY 12V piece of battery powered gear to increase headroom and dynamics in the target component.
I guess that you didn't make it to AXPONA, either, huh?
It reminds me of my little HD black box. Remember?No sir!
Sorry, man. I thought that i made myself clear about the BatteryBUSS being a separate bit of gear from the battery. My bad.Another thing to note is that this basic unit can be used for ANY 12V piece of battery powered gear to increase headroom and dynamics in the target component. Dodd battery power owners take note: the BatteryBUSS will provide increased dynamic contrast, soundstage and flesh out the harmonic texture just a bit more. The output impedance of the battery is a wee bit too high to deal with instantaneous current demands. With the tube gear it is not as big of a difference as it is with SS gear, but it is there to be sure.I guess that you didn't make it to AXPONA, either, huh?Thanks for the pictures, Rich. You are a good man.Dave
Hi Dave,I have a Dodd Battery Pre. How would I integrate the BatteryBUSS into the Dodd Battery Pre?Thanks,Doug
Doug, if you are talking about Gary's full size preamp with the batteries on board, I'm not sure. I will have to talk to Gary to see if it is even feasable. Now, if it is the Battery Buffer, you would just use it between your existing battery and the Buffer. I would supply it with a mating PowerCon on the output cable.Gary's battery powered gear is the biggest reason that I designed the BatteryBUSS in the first place. He and I have been talking about this concept off and on for a couple of years. About two years ago I approached him about doing a battery powered MacMini, but supplying 7A @ 18.5V was too much of a hassle. Now with the plethora of battery powered gear on the market (especially DACs) including the 2010 MacMini that is happy on 12V, this was a no-brainer.Dave
Hi Dave,I have Gary's full-size battery pre-amp. If the sound can be improved on this already great-sounding pre-amp, I'd be interested. I just wasn't sure how the BatteryBUSS would work with the Dodd since the batteries are already onboard.Thanks,Doug
Dave,I pm'ed you about stuff, but this might negate that I have a Battery power supply that has an input for the charger, and 4 outputs for components. Long term these 4 will be...1. Dodd Audio Battery Buffer (Already running on the supply)2. Class D Audio SDS-254 Amp (Will be running on this supply soon)3. Alix PC Linux Music Server (Currently building the cord to run this, requires 7-20V)4. TPA Buffalo 32s DAC (Not even built yet)I want to have as clean and dynamic a power source as possible, so what do I need? 4 BatteryBusses? The Dodd and Amp have Neutrik inputs, and the Battery PS has all Neutrik Powercons...If this would be easier over the phone, let me know Ted
Is this something that would improve the battery supply on my Two.2? It, of course, uses two 12v, 5 amp batteries in series for around 28 volts on constant charge.
So it could run both my amp and the smaller battery on my Warpspeed? How much improvement do users typically report? I know your other busses are very highly regarded, obviously, but wasn't aware of this one.
