Sota Comet Grounding question Wow, almost all my outlets are two prong in my old NYC apartment. Guess I should contact the landlord about that. I’ve had to use a power strip for the amp and preamp because I only have the one three prong outlet near my audio rack | |
Sota Comet Grounding question Great, thanks for that! I’ll give this a shot before I mess around with tonearm wires. Just curious if it make a difference if the wall outlet accepts two prongs versus three of I go this route? I have two different outlets near my rack and have b... | |
