wah u bought Z5500! congrats!

z5500 subwoofer can near to any electronic things ??

Not mine , hahaha , i wont buy Z5500 if i wan a 5.1 Edifier S750 is my target if i wan

i think so. nowadays almost any computer speaker is magnetically shielded. except some altec lansing products are not.

hahaha, i also dont really like Z5500. although i like the remote control part, and some said they offer up to 3 years warranty, which is unique.
either way, if got edifier S750, surely pawns liao... hope also, it passes creative S750 spec. Creative S750 offers much more power than Z5500. just woofer is smaller... if edifier can combine power amp with large + passive woofer, its the winner between these.

then z5500 subwoofer also magnetically shielded ??

99% yes. like i always said, u can google : z5500 magnetically shielded.
it will give u more precise answer.

i search already, most website write z5500 is not magnetically shielded .

And i got picture of the z5500 subwoofer :

oh then my mistake. but for a large subwoofer, it has large magnets, thats y it may not magnetically shielded. but who cares? who want to put subwoofer very close to a TV anyway?

i'd place my subwoofer nearer to wall as to spread the bass to the room.

if the subwoofer near to my pc , what will happen to my pc ??

im not sure. but i used to place my old M3300 just exactly beside the PC tower. no known effect till now. and remember, most things that are magnetically shielded may apply to satellites, but not woofer.

for today, i place a AIO printer on top of ifi sub. and the sub is about 60cm from a CRT TV! its not even a LCD TV! but nothing happens.

im not sure about the z5500 reviewers that being scared the EMI (electromagnetic interference) may affect the power line. i dont think it's that fatal, unless u have alot of tangling cable around your subwoofer.

anyway im also not sure, Z5500 is a "near-field" or "far-field" speaker.
if it's far field (like how it suppose, cause its huge), no point placing near PC.

anyway, i got something to show you, Edifier S550D, rival to Logitech Z5500. he placed his sub very near to the CPU. but i dont think he got problem with that. see the video on youtube, search for "edifier s550 razer"

the vibration from the sub will damage your HDD

if not magnetically shielded, i think it will cause damage to electrical device like monitor or HDD also, you know last time those CRT monitor?? when you put magnet near it the colour will "lari" i dont know LCD have this problem or not since i've never tried it after i changed to LCD.

HDD itself is very sensitive to magnet and vibration

what things can do to prevent the subwoofer damage my things

are u kidding me? i cant believe that question comes out...

well subwoofer just vibrate and has strong magnet inside. but its not so dangerous, lethal nor fatal until it K.O. any appliances.
remember the name, its a multimedia speaker, which also meant to be used for computers. if they are dangerous, they would not be allowed by FCC to even come out to the market...

those magnet shield things are for pre-caution only... i have not heard any major issues with it. as for LCD, i dont think LCD is going to be affected by any subwoofer. as for instance, Z5500 and S550 control unit has LCD display. if subwoofer kill them, they wont exist together. im not sure about LCD monitors but i dont think it will be affected as well.

please take a good look at this video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X928YKClop8
and also do some youtube views about Z5500, Z2300 all those computers speakers which are popular on youtube.
so many people place their subwoofer near to CPU and i did not see anyone posted a video about how a subwoofer kill their system silently.

at the very least, u can just put the subwoofer far from everything.

but seriously, all my handphones, mp3 player, cd player, all those things did not spoil although placed near subwoofer.
just dont be too paranoid about these things. try google and youtube.

if i put some metal or magnetic near subwoofer , will the subwoofer broken ?

What's the point of placing smth like that near the subwoofer at the first place?

i oso duno why he ask. thats y i wait someone to reply...

He like to ask every single detail include the unlogical one. But i do hope he will buy a speaker after spending so much time for asking that many question.

and i do hope he got the correct one, thus no more question after that.

maybe u can put floor cloth, carpet or sponge on the woofer to absorb vibrations.

What about the pricing? any comments?

for now, HCS is on top of my list...at least until i audition the M3300sf...
