However, encouraging one to make modifications to the wiring
in his home (owned or rented) that violates code and safety
regulations is well outside the purpose of this group. Nobody
in their right mind would recommend building an amplifier with
exposed high voltage ... nobody should ever advocate converting
the neutral wire in home wiring to a line and/or tying neutral
and ground together at any point other than the entrance panel.
Modifying the electrical wiring in a home to violate code could
conceivably void all homeowners insurance and be very costly
but even worse tying the safety ground and neutral together
could cost someone's life in the event of a failure. Is saving
a few $$ or making a few more watts worth the risk?
