I can contact them again and ask for a price quote for the SLC. These people don't do audio at all. When I contacted them for my RE-1009/2T they couldn't understand how it was possible that any audio equipment could take any profit of their products. I had to explain about the DC offset on the preamp due to the voltage fluctuation. They'll laugh when I tell them that I want one of those battery regenerators for an audio system. The device reminds me of the big one we have by the operation theater in the hospital.
Looking at the specs on the pdf looks like it would keep harmonic distortion under 3% on the output, which who knows what looks like, and we don't know the order of the harmonics. It might result in some crest factor looking like the Kemp's unit. But that's provided the input electricity is still under 5% of distortion. They also state that that performance is under linear load, so it might be possible that using chokes or trannies loading it would change performance for the worse. The big drawback is that it seems to be working on by-pass mode and it would work on batteries only when the microprocessor detects the lack of current at the input. I'd ask them if that can be manually switched.
I don't have a distortion analyzer nor an oscilloscope, so I cannot check if my present Salicru unit is delivering a clean sinewave or anything else. I only have a multitester and that's why I know it keeps the delivered current in the 228-234 range. Maybe there's some software that I can download on the laptop to measure those things, but I guess I'd need some sort of adaptor, I don't think I can plug a 230V outlet into a laptop's soundcard input hahahaha.
