Well, I beg to differ.

There is a HUGE difference in SQ between AC and battery with my new 230V model. The AC is edgy and sharp (pretty much unlistenable) whilst the battery is smooth and harmonically rich.

I can only concur, though other improvements in my system made it less sensitive to AC noise. Well, this needs clarification: the AC noise can be heard much more easily, but I do not find it unlistenable. Running on battery is however tremendously better (better timbres, rhythm and more relaxed).

Meanwhile, I continue to enjoy the PurePower through its battery... though I agree 100% with Romy that this should not be the final solution and certainly not what I paid for.

I can no longer do this. In the past I could hope for around 45 minutes on battery, now it dies in about 10 minutes. The battery goes quickly from 86% to about 20% and then cuts. When going back on AC, the display shows the battery at 75% right from the beginning. Maybe I'll find this amusing one day.
