My Ack Dack runs on very large batteries provided by Reference Audio Mods. I don't know the name of them (I believe there are two of them). They did some mods of my Dack 2.0 and then later I had them make me a battery pack (in a oak box) that connects via a short umbilical to my Ack.

I've listened to four dacs in my home- Ack, Benchmark, Lavry, Monarch M24 - and my Bolder modified Squeezebox (via analog outs and upgraded power supply). None of them is as good as my modded Ack Dack with the upgraded batteries. It sounds very full and incredibly natural.
