6V is actually pretty common - depends on what chemistry you want. But a regulator is a better solution. > Yes, audiophile mucking about - switching from mains power to battery > definitely makes a small improvement. Sighted listening, I assume? For digital devices, batteries are usually a worse solution than a properly designed mains-powered PSU. In a digital device, the main source of noise is not the mains power, but internal switching noise, and a mains-driven PSU has a lower internal resistance than a battery, and is thus much better at dealing with the switching noise. Anyway, I guess that part of this discussion belongs in the "audiophile" section. "To try to judge the real from the false will always be hard.
