Taiko Audio Extreme Router

Hi VPN,

I was wondering how you like your Zayin Suprareg vs the Plixir Statement for powering the Taiko Trio (Switch, Router & DCD).

Since I want to move my home router to a separate LPS, it's either the Zayin Suprareg or a second Plixir Statement. I'm open to both, also because they cost nearly the same.

Many thanks for your thoughts and listening experience.

... and of course pleasant Christmas holidays. :)
Having compared both in my system, my view is that both are great LPS. The Plixir is much heavier, probably with a larger transformer. In my system, I preferred the timbre of instruments using the Zayin, but this may vary depending on system and preferences. I am currently plugging Taiko Router, Taiko Switch, SSD NAS, and fiber modem, all in the Taiko DCD. At some later date I will take out the NAS and/or Fiber modem and use the Plixir to power them, reducing the load on the Zayin, and hear if it makes a positive difference.
 
Just migrated my library to a new QNAP NAS getting ready for Olympus delivery. Trying both LAN connection and Taiko Router connection from the NAS the Taiko connection is preferred (with Extreme and Roon)
So I'm a bit confused as to the best way to implement a static IP from my NAS to Taiko Router. Do I set the adapter in the NAS to static( this is what I'm doing now) or there appears to be a way to change a dynamic address to static in the Taiko switch software (which I have a feeling is the better way). Not wanting to mess up the router settings I am reluctant to get into without guidance.
Any thoughts or recommendations?

The Taiko Router will retain the IP address it assigned to your NAS indefinitely.
