Grounded Speaker Cable
I've never heard of such a thing. Who makes this cable? It sounds like it could be an issue with some amplifiers that do not share common grounds.

Half-Speed Masters - are they worth double dipping?
8th-note Half-Speed Mastering by itself does not increase the dynamic range (DR) of a vinyl record. Of course not. It’s just a manufacturing process. The same is true of CD - a CD itself is no guarantee of dynamic range. I have never see... 
What is the lowest voltage acceptable ?
This is governed by your state’s utility regulatory agency, such as a Board of Public Utilities. My state respects the ANSI C84.1 guideline, which calls for a ± 5 percent regulation of the nominal 120VAC service, or 114 volts minimum.
