Does it have a proximity sensor on the power screen? If it is only a second screen, I can see an easy curtain hack.

They don’t have a power ground to prevent hums. There might be a marginal risk if something comes loose in the amp, but your modern electrical cabinet would have a differential switch to save you in that case. I remember my audio engineer degrounding one of my audio components when in had the issue.
My guess for the audio ground is that older turntables had poorer electrical isolation and power lines were more noisy. For more technical explanations we need an old school audio engineer.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Antenna ground needs to be used for signal to be read properly.
Turntable audio grounding (different from electrical power grounding) may help prevent hums when the common 0V grounding passes by the power ground.

It amazes me that people who can’t distinguish between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ are allowed to manage people
Don’t. In this case yes, but overall there are dyslexics who are great managers. And on a more sober note, I’d rather have a manager who is shit in grammar but works for the team rather than a PowerPoint manager.

- Comment on Don't throw away your old PC—it makes a better NAS than anything you can buy 3 months ago:
A desktop running a low usage wouldn’t consume much more than a NAS, as long as you drop the video card (which wouldn’t be running anyways).
Take only that extra and you probably have a few years usage before additional electricty costs overrun NAS cost. Where I live that’s around 5 years for an estimated extra 10W.
