I meant this scheme. Have the converter start at 105v when turned on and increase to 120v as a nice soft start for the tubes perhaps. Anything is possible with such a set up. 

I do think that audio is/will benefit greatly from all the technological push toward electric automobiles. The new batteries are less deadly to the environment. There is no way I will install 200 kilograms of lead or 100 kilograms of the metal halides in my basement for example.

We are near the end of having to deal with the line noise. Just be sure to drink enough red wine so you live to see it.

Maybe the sound of the chemical noise of the PP's battery operation is the *good* thing you seek Romy. So maybe the PP used to operate in such a manner that the chemical noise of the battery operation was what you had even in the AC  clean up mode and they changed something so that the chemical noise was no longer the thing we are in contact with but was again the AC line generation noise. Or whatever. Battery (of the PP's type) noise may be the key... the *other* thing we don't know yet.
