i just bought m-adudio bx5 speakers and i dont have room anywhere on my table to put one of them other than next to pc box. is that bad for the speakers? (because of magnetism or something?
Speakers come electromagnetically shielded these days. so it shouldn't be a problem.
Speakers can pick up AC hum from devices. Putting speakers too close to electronic things can cause hum. It won't damage the speakers but the interference is annoying.
