Shield speaker for PC

Gold_xyz · 9th March 2008, 04:34 PM

Hallo

I like to play my little guitar when I wait for the PC virus-scan
or other long-time PC services.

The guitar amp have a loudspeaker (10") with a big ceramic magnet
and I think that it produces a lot of lost flow

This could damage my hard disks

this way I have thought about replacing the loudspeaker with a different type with shield magnet.

- Shield ceramic magnet ... too much heavy
- Alnico vintage ... How much shielded ? And a little too much heavy
- Neodimium ... How much shielded ? Very Light

which is the best solution?
tnx !

Why not just buy some magnet shields. They are just steel cans placed over the magnets and they are available from a variety of sources, but the selection may not be that wide of range.

Still, it's worth a try.

As long as you don't stick your HD case directly to the speaker magnet, you have nothing to worry about.
