I use a circuit breaker (surge protected) power bar with an on/off switch, and plug my two MS60S powered speakers and Tyros4 into it. I then leave them all switched on, with volumes at playing level, and power them up using the switch on the power bar. No issues whatsoever in the many years I've been setting up this way, and no popping noises.
