I can't recall how close was "too close". Can anyone enlighten me? I suppose the same problem exists for video tapes and VCRs. How close can one place the speakers to a VCR without messing up the tape in the machine? The tapes will be stored at least seven feet away from any speaker. Is that far enough?
