Default Noisy leads

Manufacturers do go about the whole power supply cords the cheapest way possible regardless of what these other guys are saying. The reason they have three pin leads is because they use standard jug (kettle) chords that every musician carries, (Speaker and desk power leads) and are available anywhere. It has nothing to do with earthing the power supply blah blah blah just because it's there. They have three pin leads because they are the cheapest and most common lead in the world. If you feel the need, get yourself an old power supply and take it apart and see what is connected to the earth pin. The best thing you can do is look yourself and stop taking advice from people who have nothing better to do all day but sit on a computer putting largely unqualified advice on forums!!
