| Earth (isolated) ground vs. wall outlet ground. Interesting topic. I've been asking myself these same questions for years. My old sixty three year small house has all two prong outlets from an old fuse panel. The only ground is through the wall to the ground rod(I assume) buried to this pane... | |
| What new gear have you just bought? "Swiss Digital Fusebox" Hhmm? Is it designed so it can be opened or is it sealed in epoxy? Waiting for my new CHoco Sound · EMEI Integrated Amp. Had to give it a try. | |
| Does someone’s opinion affect your opinion? You used the term "someone". Is that someone a close friend or family? Maybe that someone was purposely being an a** , because of jealousy and wanted to knock you down a bit? I love the sound of my system and I'm the only human that has listen... | |
