    Corner located TV & dipole speaker

    I have a 50" plasma across the corner of the room and have a pair of left & right open baffles utilizing 53 year old Wharfedales. I recently found another 12" full range Wharfedale and plan on locating it below the plasma.
    I have two concerns:
    First:Will the 20 lb. magnet affect the plasma? I don't see any effect, in a trial placement, but I wonder if there may be any damage to the TV.
    Second: Will locating it a few feet away from the corner on a minimalist baffle create any sound problems? I'd like to get the benefit of this group's advice before a trial & error installation.
    Incidently, I'd never advise anyone to go the route I did with old speakers. They are too fragile. The aluminum voice coil & the wire extensions to the speaker connections break very easily. The eyelet that pierces the paper cone also breaks out extremely easily (brittle varnish?).
    Miller Sound (millerspkr@aol.com) was the only one I could find that would undertake the repair of one of my speakers. Bill Miller did a great job.

    The corner placement might have some sound issues.

      I got the newly finished sub in the house last night and even though I didn't corner...

      I'd like to have this DVD but can't find it. DVD Search came up with nothing and neither did search engines.

      Rotel 1060 Video connection with 1098/Plasma.

      Dear Rotel enthousiasts,


      Yesterday I bought a Pioneer plasma screen to complete my Rotel setup
      After concluding all the (required) connections I found out that there's a problem displaying (progressive or not) an 1060 image on the Plasma screen.
      I really hope...
