Hi,
 
    Why is it that a majority of Blu-Ray players and DVD players have 2 pin AC power plugs, without Earth (Ground) terminals?
Most premium CD players on the other hand have proper 3 pin power plugs with ground terminals.
I have noticed that using a non-grounded disc spinner with an amplifier sometimes introduces a hum in the audio signal.
Is it advisable to connect a Blu-ray player with a 2 pin AC cord to an amplifier? Will it degrade sound quality by introducing electrical noise?
