Thanks, Jim.
I've never been able to figure out how to navigate through long threads at AA in an efficient non-confusing manner :-), and in trying to do so in the thread you linked to I just encountered a lot of disagreement and arguing.
In any event, my point is that while good sounding equipment can certainly be designed and built without making circuit ground and safety ground common, the fact is that many designs do have them in common. And I would expect that modifying an EXISTING design to isolate the two grounds from each other might not be simple to do, and may have adverse sonic effects.
Best regards,
