Most consumer electronics come with this warning in the manual, including DVD players, game consoles, and of course, computers.

But what exactly can be defined as a “strong vibration?” Obviously turning up the bass volume on a large subwoofer and putting a device with a HDD next to it would be unwise, but what about the television set itself?

I’ve been reluctant to turn up the volume on my TV in the fear that it could adversely affect my DVD recorders, game console, and other connected/nearby devices.

Could turning up the volume on your television (internal speakers, only) increase the magnetic field being emitted? Or could it also create strong enough vibrations to do damage to the devices you have connected?

Or are the internal speakers of a television already shielded to prevent these kinds of damages? It would seem like if you buy a television, then naturally you would also buy other electronics to connect to it. So I would assume that the manufacturers would have taken that into consideration.

I guess what I want to know is … if I want to crank up the volume on my TV (w/out any external speakers being connected), do I have to worry about damage done to my nearby devices?

   The warning is thinking of devices into their car and turned them up so could not very many watts and could hear them where they were in tv speakers and driving offroad with them up so could not very many watts and driving.
