I know this sounds crazy but I'm designing a 45 liter pair of speakers to mount on the end of my waterbed and.... I want to pirch my M500 mono blocks each on top of each speaker. crazy? The cabinets are going to be made of one inch MDF so with alittle padding uner the amps I'm not very concerned about vibrations, or should I be? But what about the Fostex
206 magenet in the upper part of the cabinet? How strong are they? I probably should have ordered the sheilded version?
As far as the tube amp is concerned, which end of the amp is more sensitive to an external magnetic field? The end with the tubes of the end with the transformers?
I figure that with my current design the magenet of the Fostex fe-206 will be within 8 inches of the MJ300B tubes? Is this a problem?
I could of course buy some Mu metal to place under the amp, but do you think this would be needed? Thanks for your input, Pete
