i hav recently purchased a labtec speaker system consisting of a subwoofer and two satellite speakers.
the subwoofer is not magnetically shielded. it is about 1metre away from my pc. is this safe????
Im a bit worried that my pc might break down :smileyrolling_eyes:
It should be quite safe. Electro-magnetic interference drops off quite quickly.
My subwoofer is on the floor, under my desk which is probably close to a metre from my PC. It's been running like that for years without a problem.
The only adverse effect a sub can have on your pc is the bass it pumps out. But then again, its not exactly earthquake force bass so it wont be too bad
ok, thnx for the info cheers :smileygrin:
i now bought a creative labs 6700 6.1 channel surround sound speaker system. by subwoofer is lyk 15cm away from my sony rx305 base unit. is this safe??
I used to have my sub about 30cm away from the PC, it was fine, but I think it was a shielded speaker.

Sorry about the double posting agaian, damn servers
They were some generic things, OK, but not excellent.
Generally subs are best placed in a corner of the room - for most "boom" effect.
I had my Creative 4.1 sub next to my PC for 2 yrs - no problems.
I've also had a B&G sub next to my PC for a few months - no adverse effects (well not until I moved the sub into my lounge and lost any decent bass I had to play Unreal Tournament with :smileyrolling_eyes:
