Forget the musical equipment. The whole place needs to be rewired with proper safety earth and 3-prong outlets. Don't worry about ground loops and hum. Your problem is going to be killing yourself with your toaster, or Television, or a lamp, or any other electrical accesory.

But I thought there's gotta be someone on the list who knows about electricity! Or maybe it is related. I'm asking about "ground" loops.... Anyway, hours ago I just paid the deposit on a new apartment. It's old and beautiful and I just noticed....all the outlets in the house, every freaking one, is 2 prong!! I'm freaking out now because one of the many rooms in this beautiful old house is intended as my music studio. Yikes! I'll try to refrain from using my gear while standing in a pool of water, but is this an unworkable situation for a musician with loads of gear? Do I have to move out before I've even moved in?? Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much, Zoe the cellist ________________________________________________ Message sent using UebiMiau 2.7.2
