Most Shocking Upgrade to your System (LIFEPO4 Battery on Network Streamer)
Once your components, cables, speakers, and room are at a certain level huge upgrades in sonic performance are very rare, but this one was so profound I had to share with the community: putting my streamer on a LIFEPO4 battery was utterly stunning. After much research I’ve found the flagship 22k Aurender W20SE also uses LIFEPO4 batteries. If you want a shocking, simple, and inexpensive upgrade try implementing a LIFEPO4 battery on your streamer, there’s nothing else like it, I can no longer hear any audible quality difference between streaming on Qobuz and playing CDs. This one upgrade puts streaming ahead of everything, try it and you’ll see why.

Ok, I have some questions. I have a Sonore Optical Rendu streamer and on the Linear Power Supply led display it says it runs on 7 volts. So my question is do I need to find a battery that is 7 volts or will a 12-volt battery work? Also what happens when the battery becomes low or dies? Will this not harm the Optical Rendu?

I have 2 18ah for my optical optimizer transceiver and receiver, and a 10, and 15 ah for the streamer. (See my system by clicking on my profile.) I use the LIFEPO4 battery calculator, it will help you determine the goals you’re looking for size and time: https://micropowergrids.com.au/Calculators/1_LiFePo4_Battery_Calculator.html I wouldn’t want my 4 amp charger going into my delicate electronics, so I always charge detached. Oh I have 3 LIFEPO4 4 amp chargers for each of my 3 battery demanding parts of my HiFi rig. I cannot emphasize enough trying your streamer on a Lifepo4 battery, it’s truly remarkable. After hearing the clarity and transparency you can’t go back to AC. I really enjoy the ritual of new batteries for each listening session as well, feels like an offering to the Music God. :)
