No, the magnetic fields from even very large speakers are too weak/large to cause problems with hard drives. The magnetic fields on hard drives are very very small. It takes very close proximity or very strong/moving fields to make them flip. The permanent magnets/voice coil used to actuate the read/write heads are very strong, inside the drive, and move a ton. Yet they do not cause problems. -- SuperQ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82576 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
