Different batteries may behave differently but ALL batteries are identical in one respect - they all have a polarity !! You cannot have a battery without it has a positive and a negative - i.e a polarity - irrespective of what substance it is made of or it's size or it's shape !!
The same with magnets. ALL magnets have a polarity, you cannot have a magnet without it has a North and a South !! It does not matter whether it is a horseshoe magnet or a round magnet (for loudspeaker drive units) or a long bar magnet polarised end to end (with a North at one end and a South at the other end) or a long bar magnet polarised through it's depth (with a long North face and a long South face at the rear) - ALL have a polarity.
And, in our opinion (and experiments), it is our (human beings) reaction to these polarities which prevent us being able to 'sign off' our environment as 'safe'.
And, yes, the different substances which different batteries are made from will have an effect on the sound but these different substances will be affecting the environment in which we live (and listen) and therefore our reaction to those different substances will be different.
Nicads will sound different to Alkaline which will sound different to Zinc which will sound different to Lithium batteries - and YOUR reaction to each of those substances will be different and you will react more adversely to some substances than to others whilst at the same time reacting to their polarity !!! 'Treat' them and you will gradually lessen the different adverse effects.
