That would be great if you're only listening the other half of the time. :/
Asking for a constant voltage from a constant current device bothers me.
Perhaps it only bothers you because you don't understand how it functions.
In your approach, you're trying to take advantage of the voltage and current relationships in an inductor and a capacitor to improve performance. But that's precisely what a choke input supply does. The choke works in conjunction with the reservoir capacitors to provide a constant voltage with dynamic current capability at the node between the choke and the capacitors.
Other than that Pi-filters are nice.
Why is the inline choke in a pi filter any better than the inline choke in a choke input supply? Or are you referring to pi filters on the AC line rather than the power supply?
I'm trying to advance beyond that.
Great. However I don't see the advantage your design would have over a choke input supply.
