Can speaker magnets damage equipment?

[Fullforceeventsltd]

This is a bit of an odd thread and you will probably think I am nuts but is there any equipment other than hard drives that should be kept away from speakers.
I know it’s not a good idea to store a laptop near a speaker as the hard drive could get corrupted and CRT screens don’t like magnets.
As I don’t have a huge amount of space things have to be stacked closely together and the last thing I want is a digital player or a controller dieing.
Sorry if this is a stupid question!

Obviously as you are aware speaker magnets from
Subwoofers and the like can cause damage to monitors and also been known to damage LCD stuff. Most modern electronic equipment is ok to a moderate magnetic field.

For example I have a playstation, xbox sitting next to a large home cinema sub next to my TV and there all fine. To get damage you would need one huge powerful and alternating magnet.

I concur , just keep your 8 track tapes and your cassettes away from your speakers and you'll be fine..

Well I don’t have any 8-track tapes so that helps.
Thanks your all the info, I think LCD can also be affect by cold temperatures?
