Hi jmone,
The battery is different because of different voltage requirement. It also takes less current to keep the N2 going for 9 hours.

Thanks Ian. The wireless models are indeed amazing and I didn't think about their full value until I set up my 2.1, audio only M5/Pioneer system. With the 4-in-one, and the built-in amps, the need for a receiver diminishes.
They are not battery-powered though and being MDF, they're not ideal for lugging around. I think I just need to get over my incessant need for holography. I've got to be willing to give that up for the sake of portability. I also realize such a product would be very expensive and would appeal to a razor thin niche market.

Thanks Ian - ordered an N2 and Batt. I like the look of the buttons on the Top of the unit and the connectors on the back instead of how it works with the N3.
Is there still a "Tinkerers Door" to get to the Pi? and what Pi is it?

SRoode, you can trade in your Air for LFRs.  I think I'll go for an N2 as well. I gotta get over this soundstage hang up I have and maybe the N2 will help.

There is a door on the bottom that gives access to the Pi and the the mother board. It is the Pi 3B+

Folks, I purchased an AA during the original kickstarter release. It has been mostly idle from day one apart from the occasional tune into wireless radio (I have a non-jail broken Android phone). I couldn't listen to Pandora, I don't have a home NAS, so it's applicability to my music listening habits was quite limited. I was quite disappointed, and since I"m a die hard Axiom Audio fan, kept hoping that this 'dream' of high fidelity music in a portable package would one day come true.
That day is finally here. A couple of months back, with Ian's super focused attention to customer service, he personally helped me navigate the upgrade to the latest firmware, and even with a serious setback, created a customized update, which I burnt to the internal SD card, and brought the unit back to life.
Music on spotify, pandora (through BT), and web radio sound powerful, clear, and room filling. Thanks Ian and the Axiom team!
