speakers next to laptop, bad?

is this ok? am i going to fuck up my laptop because of the magnets in the speakers?

As long as it doesn't have an FDD or a CRT I think you're safe.

Love the bit of paper that just says YEK

I've seen two different laptops on one occasion suddenly develop issues (not booting, freezing during booting process) because they were situated close to speakers in a dj booth, I was playing a vinyl set and saw the guys playing after me having issues, I suggested they boot up outside of the booth and it worked strangely enough. YMMV, I guess.

i've heard that speaker subs vibrations can fuck up computers... maybe that was going on.

Get some proper magnetically shielded active monitors yek, besides not possibly sucking away life juice from the laptop internals, soundquality will improve. Shit is not that expensive anymore.

I'm just curious, but why put them there? Is it your only available option?

yeah, i'm quite cramped for space here.

I think you'd be better off spreading them a little further apart and angling them towards your listening position if at all possible, not because of the magnetism, for your listening pleasure.

That actually seems like a much more logical explanation.

so is my subwoofer next to my computer a bad thing? mind you i never have it turned up more than half way .
