Speaker's magnetic field and pacemaker

PM member jadem6 or write to him through his cable company Jade Audio. He has a left ventricular assist device which I imagine is also v sensitive to magnetic fields. I know he has continued to remain active designing and building i/cs and speaker cables so I imagine he knows the ins and outs of this issue.

I agree with one half of what Albert just posted. I don't know squat about magnetic fields and pacemakers. But I agree that some of the album pics of my favorite lady artists make my heart skip, like Linda Ronstadt's pic on Living in the USA. Linda's wearing shorty-short roller skating shorts. What a babe in the day and a truly versatile artist to boot.

I don't thik that anyone with pacemaker would go as extream as leaning against woofer. 2' away is safe.
consider placement of your rig at the safe distance from speakers or start playing music quiet and than adjust with volume control

In the Emergency Department, we use magnets to temporarily turn off pacemakers to see what the patient's native heartbeat is doing. Only briefly, of course. The magnet has to be held directly over the pacemaker. So, keep the pacemaker at least a foot away from the large magnet. This advice does not apply to internal defibrillator-pacemakers.
