Sound quality will be worse when running off the UPS but shouldn't be
effected the rest of the time. (its only not a sine wave when running off
the battery) So is it ok to have bad sound during a power outage? (i.e. it
shouldn't do any damage to the hardware making it a requirement)

I would certainly recommend true-sine wave because you need as your AC-DC
conversion to be clean and linear and since the power supplies in them are
designed with that in mind, it's good practice and ensures a clean sound.
This is the reason why you still see more phat transformers as opposed to
switchmode power supplies in the AC-DC conversion process.
General rule of thumb is if the power supply in the device is linear, your
UPS should be a true-sine wave. And for the record, our massive UPS
systems
used in the IBC at the Olympics are all true-sine wave as well.
You could still use any UPS you like, but the sound and image will reflect
just how good the UPS really is.
Adios,

Subject: [H] UPS for home theatre
When you put a UPS on home theatre, do you need a pure-sine wave or
something like that?
