Plixir Elite BDC Dual 12V: pure power for two hi-fi components
This dual linear power supply frees your digital components from nasty electrical noise and is the answer for anyone who wants to take their switch and streamer to the next level at the same time.
Benefits
- ✅ Symmetrical circuit design -> Eliminates electromagnetic interference -> A calm in the sound that lets you rediscover every detail.
- ✅ 4 amps of current -> Ample power reserves for hungry components -> Assured bass weight and more stable dynamics at any volume.
- ✅ Two isolated 12V outputs -> Powers switch and streamer without interfering with each other -> The reassuring feeling of a perfectly clean digital chain.
The Wädenswil perspective
In our workshop in Wädenswil, testing the Plixir Elite BDC Dual 12V, we found that this unit really shows its worth with audiophile network switches in particular. Many high-end switches ship from the factory with cheap plastic power supplies that pump more grime into the system than an ageing heater. The Plixir, on the other hand, delivers power as clean as spring water from the mountains above Lake Zurich.
A technical detail: the symmetrical design acts like a treatment plant for your power supply. Picture it like polarised sunglasses – suddenly the blinding glare on the water is gone, and you see crystal clear what's happening underneath. The Plixir does essentially the same thing to your sound: it takes away the electrical "glare" so the music can flow.
There are plenty of hi-fi clichés, but the idea that power has no influence belongs in the fairy-tale section. We're being honest here in Wädenswil: if you own a cheap plastic system, you'll barely hear the difference. The Plixir is a tool for systems that already have potential. And yes, this thing weighs over three kilograms – if you prefer featherlight, stick with the standard plug, but then you'll also get standard sound.

Frequently asked questions
Which devices is the Plixir Elite BDC Dual 12V suitable for?
For hi-fi components that need 12 volts DC – typically audiophile network switches and streamers. The two isolated outputs power two devices at the same time without them interfering with each other. Check your device's voltage and current requirements beforehand: the Plixir delivers 12 volts at 4 amps output current.
What connectors and cables come with the power supply?
Two DC outputs as 4-pin Aero Grade connectors, plus two DC cables with a 2.1 mm connector diameter and a power cable for the IEC C13 inlet. If your device's plug doesn't fit, or you're unsure about polarity and voltage, just ask us before buying – that's quickly sorted out.
What does a linear power supply offer over a standard power supply?
It delivers power with significantly less noise. Instead of a cheap electronics board, the Plixir houses a massive toroidal transformer with a symmetrical circuit design that eliminates electromagnetic interference. You hear this as calm in the sound: details emerge more clearly, the bass gains weight, and dynamics stay stable at any volume.
Is the power supply worth it for every system?
No, and we say that openly. The Plixir is a tool for chains that already have potential – on a simple plastic system, you'll barely hear the difference. But if switch, streamer, and speakers are all up to par, the power supply extracts the last bit of calm and cleanliness from the digital chain.
Why does the power supply weigh over three kilograms?
Because the housing contains a massive, handmade toroidal transformer instead of a cheap electronics board. With linear power supplies, mass is often a direct mark of quality: it stands for stability and power reserves. The 3.2 kilograms are no accident – if you prefer featherlight, stick with the standard plug, but then you'll also get standard sound.
Why buy the Plixir Elite BDC Dual 12V from HD Zürisee?
Because we'll tell you upfront whether it's worth it. In our workshop in Wädenswil, HD Zürisee has listened to this power supply in real systems instead of just reading out spec sheets – industry roots going back to 1993 help with that. We'll sort out plug, voltage, and current requirements with you: shop@hdzuerisee.ch or 076 534 22 00.
