Older home & 2 prong outlets, Help No Ground?


A good friend is moving to an older home with all two prong outlets!

Of course, stereo, computers, etc all run with three and are for grounding, yes?

How does one prevent the exposure to electrical surges without grounding? Doesn't it need to be grounded to be safe?

Clearly confused,

I don't know whether there are safety issues to be truly concerned about, but, honestly, your system may sound better with nothing grounded.
