If you insist on grounded outlets, I'd recommend wiring only the plugs you intend to use for your stereo (one two-plug box should do it in an apartment). Doing so will reduce the cost, and keep relations positive with your landlord.
New House, Old Wire
Hi,
I just moved into a new rental house in San Francisco and some of the rooms have grounded outlets and some don't.
The room I want my hi-fi in doesn't have them. The landlord wants to know how bad I want grounded plugs in as the wiring has to be replaced.
My answer to him will be, "REALLY BAD!"
However, before I give him that answer what options do I have to ground things myself, if any?
I'm a hi-fi newbie with the following rig:
Plinius 9200
Focus Audio F68 SEs
Nottingham Horizon
Satori Acoustic Zens
Thanks,
Jon
