Below I have pasted Ken's announcement of this product. I am using it with the Sony D25 and am just thrilled with the combination. The build quality on the battery pack is excellent. I am surprised to find that it ups the volume output of the player. Why, I have no idea, but it helps since I am using a passive preamp with 0 gain. I have not had an occasion to try running it for 12 hours straight, though a couple days ago I accidentally left it on all day with no apparent ill effects. Currently my only source for music is CD, so it is a welcome relief to finally be completely off the AC grid. My amp is the RW 30.2, a superb product. Vinnie Rossi clued me in on the existence of ALO audio, the availability of the D25 (since I told Vinnie I was using a fairly recent Panasonic portable CDP as my source) and the fact that he was helping Ken develop the battery pack (after I asked him advice on how to hook the player to a SLA battery.) I have terrible AC here, and after years of using one brand of Power Conditioner after another, a long and sad experience, the last being a PS Audio PPP which worked to a certain extent but not near well enough, I got the 30.2, the D25 and sold the PPP, my two mono block power amps, and a very expensive CDP. The Sony may not have the refinement of the one I sold, I miss SACD and remote control, but I don't have to plug anything except the chargers into the wall which makes all the difference. Anyway, I am tremendously satisfied with my Red Wine/ALO products. ( I am convinced that much of what is called digititis, lousy digital sound, is the fault of poor AC.)
ALO SLA Battery Power Plant Box This is a Sealed Lead Acid battery that you can run your and 12v PCDP AND or 12v headphone amp off of for 12+ hours. Then recharge. This is being made for our NOS Sony D25s CD players but it will run anything 12V. I am including several DC power jacks out, a changing unit for any country. The box is going to be very nice, extruded aluminum anodized black with a red charging LED lamp. We are in the process of building these but are still waiting for the anodizing to be complete.
