after market battery power for DAC

I'm looking for someone that can replace the AC power plant of a DAC and hack in a battery powered solution. I'm thinking of doing this with either the SlimDevices Transport or the new PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC.

Any ideas?

Talked to both Vinnie at Red Wine and Kyle at Reference Mods. Vinnie isn't going to do one due to the complexity of the different voltages in the unit. Kyle is going to give it a shot, but warns it might be pricey.

This is looking more complicated than I had hoped.

Why not go for the battery dac like Isabellina DAC or Altmann Attraction DAC?

Mariusz, I want the integrated file based playback to avoid having to have a separate source/transport device. The PS Audio gear gets me the sound I like with plus the capability of high res, and it does it all without ever taking the data out of I2S format.

That said, if Vinnie ever adds equivalent features to the Isabellina, I would be all over it.
