What's The Big Deal About Battery Powered Preamps?


.
What advantages do battery powered preamps have over the traditional plug-in-the-wall preamps? I just read recently where Red Wine Audio is coming out with a battery powered amplifier.

Batteries can have a lot of "juice". Actually, that's where they're best. How many amps is your car battery rated for?

Had the original battery preamp, the Mission 776 from the 80's, and it was more dynamic and without the bloated bass of the dual chasis SFL2. Preferred the Mission. If it had XLR, might still be using it. Now, gone passive with no power at all. With a healthy source, there's no shortage of dynamics with that either.
