RE: Project for the long weekend - WHICH battery to use?

Hi Rick,

I recommend Powerex D Size NiMh battery. Once, I did a HiMh batteries comparison for use in my DAC. Sanyo(poor self discharge rate) and GP sounded poor. Energizer and Uniross were good sounding. Powerex was the best during my tests, with the lowest internal resistance hence good frequency response & overall SQ, very low self discharge rate.

I have not tried the IMEDION and don’t know whether it would be better than the other.


For h55m-ud2h running battery powered memory, 2 batteries in parallel will offer longer listening time, use a ram that will boot up at the lowest voltage.

When dealing with the battery holder and wiring, try to make the wire in direct contact with the battery terminals. Used good quality wires, preferably AWG 16# -14# (1.3mm or more in diameter). If you can’t or don’t want to stick the battery holder onto the mb, put it in front of the P24 socket.

Wish you a successful trial and nice weekend.
