Subwoofers and TVs

[Jewish Rabbi]

One of my buddies swears that putting large speakers/subwoofers will mess up LCD and Plasma tvs, however, I thought it was just the old CRT tvs that are effected by that. Anyone have an answer?

Your buddy is not telling you the truth.

Your buddy is not telling you the truth.That's what I thought...Thanks for your help, I'm moving into a fairly small apartment, that will help with my speaker placement.

Your buddy is a moron.

If you had a tube TV, the magnet from the sub could affect the picture, creating a gauss-like effect (big purple blotch, screen distortion).

Plasma and LCD TVs don't have a CRT, thus, no problems. Same reason why you can wave a magnet around an LCD monitor and get nothing but it effs up an old CRT.

Yeah that's what I thought but I didn't want to take the chance and throw away a thousand dollar tv.

Anyone have an answer for this? Because one of my friends is pretty addicted.
