Car speakers and their effect on TVs??
paigeoliver:
I killed the green in my old Turbo monitor using a car speaker. The 12" sub was completely eaten away from the edges of the speaker (every turbo I have EVER seen is that way), so I replaced it with a 12" car sub.
Well, the monitor INSTANTLY lost the green in a nice diagonal gradient towards the sub (with NO green closest to the speaker, and full green furthest from it). Over time it lost the green altogether. Luckily Turbo was mostly red and blue in the color scheme of things.

Paige, Wow! A very scary story, but I'm assuming the magnet on your 12" sub is about 4 times larger than the ones on teh 5 1/4" car speakers I'm planning on installing. Still, I'm becoming more and more concerned about how to handle this situation! There must be dozens of people on this bosrd who have used car speakers, and nobody is replying?!? Where are all the experts!?! ;)

I use car speakers that are running off of a 120 x 2 amp sitting directly above a D9200 with zero interference. I'd say they are a good 6 inches away. If you set the cabinet speakers isobaric (reversed mounting...can't see why anyone would want this look for a cabinet) then the monitor would interfere. I would not recommend setting a subwoofer inside your cabinet that will be a disaster. The high powered magnet from a sub can seriously screw up the monitor and your computer hard drive for that matter.
Here are a couple pages I made that will help in this area.
