Shielded speaker not required?DueN
Apr 23, 2001 2:05 PM
Guys, do I need a shielded center speaker if my TV set is a RPTV? I don't have an RPTV but am considering getting one in a near future.

I'm thinking that unlike the direct-view TV, the RPTV is shooting photons at the screen. So, the small magnet structure of the speaker shouldn't bend the light, right? (Ok, theoretically it does but is neglegible when factoring all other masses around, especially that of the earth)

Please enlighten me. Thanks.

I don't have (or need) a sheilded center for my RPTV. I have never had a problem with my center sitting on my TV. If you set the speaker in front of the tv, depending on distence it might be a problem.

I love my ACA too BTW, but that is no surprise to you.
Thanks. That confirms my belief. (nt)DueN

I have 3 nOrh 4.0s in front, one on top of my mits rptv. I ordered one of the 4.0s as shielded but when they arrived I was so excited that I did not notice which one was the shielded one when I unpacked them. So I just picked one at random and put it on top of the TV and I have not noticed any problems. So either I made a lucky guess or it doesn't matter.

You can simply check it by turning on the TV and putting each speaker next to it and looking for... oh well, we already know the answer. Thanks. :-)

Actually I was wondering if I could tell by bringing a compass close to the speaker
