BATTERIES
The LS-1 Linestage is unique. All of its primary audio circuits are powered by battery. The
SmartSupply™ unit installs between the LS-1 and the wall socket and controls charging of the
batteries and the supply of certain non-audio voltages when the unit is playing. The LS-1 is
shipped with the batteries installed and is ready to play out of the box. All aspects of the
batteries and their charging are transparent to the user.
There are 6 main batteries for audio power in a dual mono configuration. These batteries
are a Lithium type and require no service in their lifetime. In addition, there are 6 smaller
“AA” type rechargeable batteries which provide bias current for our UltraBias™ circuit.
Replacement batteries can be purchased from Veloce Audio or from other reputable battery
suppliers.
Typical life of the supplied batteries will be quite long and is expected to easily surpass 12
years. These batteries are commercially available and can also be supplied by Veloce Audio
or your dealer. The specifications for these batteries are:
Six (6) 12 V K2 Energy 12V7 LiFePO4 Batteries
Six (6) 1.2V NiMH “AA” Batteries
Maximum “ON” time is programmed into the LS-1to protect your batteries from accidental
deep discharge and provide for the longest battery life. A timer will shut the unit off after 16
hours of continuous use. Impending shut down is indicated by flashing lights on the front
display. This is NOT the run time of the battery supply from full charge! The unit can be
immediately turned on after this programmed shut down MULTIPLE TIMES for longer listening
sessions. Further, the rapid charger, designed into the SmartSupply, provides for short
recharge cycles. A listening session of 3 to 4 hours may result in a charge time (after shut off)
of 10 minutes or so!
