Sub-woofer quick question

[Dio1080]

I have a sub-woofer near a printer, would that mess the printer up? I would like to know before i hook it up.

 

[peterhuang913]

No it won't. The sub-woofer should be magnetically-shielded.

 

[Dio1080]

I forgot to mention that, its not shielded.

 

[peterhuang913]

How many watts? How big is the driver?
It really doesn't matter though, because your sub probaly is too weak to cause damage to anything.

 

[Dio1080]

35 watts, but if you say so, i'll go ahead and put it together.

 

[peterhuang913]

lol 35 watts, that's too puny to affect a printer.

 

[Dio1080]

lol, ok

It's ok for it, to be near the printer. I heard it's not ok for it, to be near your computer tower. But 35W is pretty weak.

I think the tower metal case repels or absorbs the magnetic field.

it's not lead. your enclosure should be sufficient enuff to distance the little magnet away from the printer. glue another magnet backward
(it's hard) on the previous one if you want to shield it. this cancels the magnet effects
