Are these speakers magnetically shielded? And with Plasma and Led Tv's does it even matter anymore.

I was just researching this myself (as I own these speakers). I'm surprised no one's answered you by now! My best answer is that I don't know if the speakers are shielded, BUT it apparently doesn't matter with plasma & LCD TVs, because unlike the old CRT's, they do not have the same magnetic properties which caused the distorted images & discoloration.

Well shielded cables should prevent that. I use these and have no problem.http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001UJEKZ6

I have not heard any humming over the speakers. I'm pretty happy with my purchase and I have a Bose Cinemate surround system.

Yes, it is shielded. I have mine inbetween a PS3 and Dish DVR, both with hard drives and have experienced no issues. Here are the specs: http://www.klipsch.com/rc-42-ii-center-speaker/details

Mine is. I'm using it between my desktop and Onkyo receiver connected to the plasma for playing Call of Duty with no problems. It also sends the sound for in game surround. What didn't know was that it also seems intent connection through it.

That is what I am using them on. Just watch the power pass. Cable from the box to the box has power the other cable goes on the shielded side.

They will work.For an idea of the sound quality see the many reviews of this product - many from advanced audiophiles. They only have 3.5" woofers so you can't expect them to do a whole lot with deep bass, however, in my opinion based on the TVs (CRT, Plasma & LED) I've owned they will be able to out perform most TV built in speakers. I enjoy them for surround speakers in 7.1 systems (not for Left right or center channel) where I also have a Subwoofer, and I like them very much.

Magnetically shielding of speakers is a carry over from the days when video monitors used CRT technology. The magnetic field of the speakers would deflect the path of the electron beam in the CRT causing picture distortion. This is not an issue for today's LED and LCD video technology. Need proof? Hold a magnet up to your screen. Nothing happens. Doing that to an old CRT video monitor would badly distort the picture.

I can't tell if it's shielded or not. You'd need to get that info from the manufacturer I guess. But it is heavy duty and there's no 'hum' from it and no A/C interference. It's a very good cord. We're using it for music equipment.

I checked and they are separate cords. You will be fine with these speakers

I have had no trouble with my speakers. They are great for such little things. I personally would return them to Amazon.

BEatlefanI am driving a pair or Polk T15 Bookshelf Speakers that sit on my desk. They get quite loud yet still remain quite clean :)) . If your TV has RCA outs should be no problem

They should work with the audio out connection. I got these speakers for my laptop and they work great. That's a big TV you have though. For it I'd consider bigger speakers although wouldn't know what to recommend. Something more in the home theater line perhaps. To provide the surround sound effect you are most likely wanting.

I don't think so but am no electronic whizz. I just turn the TV sound to mute and then no one else is bothered by what I am watching. Have had them for 5 months and use them almost daily and still LOVE them.

My set was magnetic. These are coated with a magnetic layer and once it wears off it loses that property. My set lost the coating through usage and was not eligible for warranty replacement.

I have heard no noise, buzz, or interference at all on these speakers. They are sitting on my wife's desk a) within 1/2 inch of each side of the 23" LED monitor, and b) within 6 inches of a Dect 6 AT&T wireless telephone handset. I would not be concerned about buzzing issues with these speakers themselves However, your existing setup could have a bad audio cord or some other problem with your signal source (like, for example, some old tube TVs have very bad 60 Hz buzzing in their audio, even coming through their 'earphone' port) and these speakers would not be the cause of that.

yes the speakers are built in, my tv is a 58" and l must listen at a very low volume setting, 1 to 5 or get blasted out of the house. Most TV's normal listening volume settings are from 10 to 15. Toshiba people that I have spoken to, approx. 4 of them say they have never heard of the problem
