I have two loud speakers a half a foot away from my pc. Big No No?

I work in a sound studio and I must know this answer...

Well I have a pc and on the floor we have two loud speakers that pound loud music. Now is this bad for my hard drives or pc? Can this damage my pc at all?

I've had them there for a while now but I must know before I do any damage. One thing I know is that hard drives shouldn't be by static or whatever. I hope whatever is used to make speakers (I believe magnets are inside all speakers) doesn't ruin my hard drives inside my pc. I also heard that hard drives are suceptable to vibration or something. Hmmm Please help me before I do any damage....

 

Can't help you with a technical answer, but you could try setting your PC on a rubber mat, the thicker the better. That should dampen HD vibrations. Bazza

I have a couple larger speekers quite near me and all seems fine, but once I turned one around so I could listen to tunes in the other room and it made my monitor goto rainbows...I turned it back quick (was the same distance away).. good question. Also, what would be a safe distance?

 

Magnets and monitors/TV don't go well together since they both use EMF to do their work. As to the speakers, there is only so much vibration that they can take as those speakers will vibrate the case along with the floor, walls etc. I have no proof but I would move one or the other.

 

CRT monitors and Floppies use magnetic fields (EMF) to do there job, HD/CD/DVD's use Magnetic fields to move the read/write heads, most fans are brushless and use Magnetic fields only to run (actually seen a strong Magnetic Field stop a fan).

Having said that will it harm the Comp, don't think it will if it hasn't yet, but I would move mine
