The two-prong power connector found on a fair bit of Outlaw's gear (the big amps being an exception in general, as I recall) is pretty common for the industry. How many DVD players have you owned with three-prong plugs? How many cable or satellite receivers? Heck, my TV doesn't even have a three-prong plug.

As I mentioned I would think most of the niche Outlaw customer base would have upgraded to a similiar scheme at least for their home theater/listening room.
It is probably very common for Outlaw components to be plugged into outlets whose wiring hasn't been touched since the house was built 50, 60, or even 80 years ago. Having grown up in a house from 1927 and owned two houses from the 1950's, I can vouch for the cost and challenges involved in updating to a three-conductor dedicated circuit for home theater. I suspect that far fewer Outlaw owners have made improvements to their wiring than you might think.
