Why don’t all audio companies use high-current, low-resistance batteries in their products?
While the use of batteries offers tremendous amounts of instantaneous current and eliminates having to deal with grunge from the AC power, making use of battery power requires the audio component be designed with battery operation in mind. Most manufactures likely did not give consideration to our approach when their products were initially conceived, so in some cases batteries may not be a good fit – especially for products that run on high voltage rails.
