Bucking magnets arrived today!

Big thanks to SpyDIRmaN and his sister!!

My bucking magnets are here. Now I just have to figure out which way to put them on my speakers. I guess reverse polarity means I need to glue them on.

Thanks again!

Cool, let us know how you get on with them, I avoided putting larger speakers in my cabinet because I was worried that they would affect the monitor and I couldn't find shielded speakers that were suitable but bucking magnets may be an option

HK was getting interference on his crt from his speaker magnets.

Bucking magnets are supposed to go on the back of the speaker to sheild this.

I assume

Yep, here's the original thread: Speakers causing discolouration on monitor

Hey Kaze, please let us know if they work. I'm building a juke and need to consider this. Thanks!

Hey HK, haven't been on in awhile (so many other pressing matters in my life to deal with that the EMU project went on hold for a bit. lol)..

So did the magnets do the trick? or are you still having the distortion?

I don't seem to be getting distortion from regular use, but I do still get discoloration when I crank up the volume for long periods of time. So it seems when it's cranked loud (these are kick ass car speakers) it will get slight discoloration. But I just plug in my deguass wand to remove it, no big deal.

I just want to say a BIG THANKS again for this!! And if you can pass on another BIG THANKS to your sister and give her a virtual kiss on the cheek for me. Say I look like Brad Pitt in real life or something

I've been looking at this 20" LCD screen lately and I'm seriously thinking about getting it. It would take alot of weight off the machine and probably give as much viewing area as my current 21" CRT (they include the glass behind the plastic on CRT sizes).
