Magnetism - Subwoofers / Hard drives

<< < (2/2)

patrickl:
Rubber doesn't stop a magnetic field.

I'd guess a subwoofer is shielded too. Unless you can see the woofers themselves. If you want to be sure you should test for magnetic fields (or maybe it's in the manual)

Besides, the HD is embedded in a metal box. That will protect the HD from any magnetic field outside.

Apollo:
Invest in some chicken wire, that is better than solid metal.

hyiu:
if you're using one of those computer speaker system, even with a woofer... I doubt they're strong enough to ruin a HD...
(even if you put them next to each other...)

unless you're putting like a 10+ in woofer right next to it...

even then... if you put the computer (with case...)
then it should still be ok...

but like previously said... if you have a EXTRA BIG woofer in there... and you like to turn it up and BOMB the whole place... The strong booming might actually shake the machine...

you'll need to have a speaker hole and might want to put some sound absorber around your computer....
