can I install these close to a tv or near electronics? I am assuming these speakers are not magnetically shielded...

yes I used mine as a center channel speaker about 6 inches directly under the center of tv. no problems

Not sure if they are magnetically shielded but I have mine installed directly above my tv which is mounted to the wall and don't have any issues. Hope that helps

I also used this speaker as a center channel 6 inches below tv with no problems.

These would not be good speakers for wall mounting as all the connections and controls are on the back. Also, they were designed to be listened to from up close. If you mean like for computer monitors but on the wall, I guess you could mount small shelves on the wall and place them on the shelves.

I have heard no noise, buzz, or interference at all on these speakers. They are sitting on my wife's desk a) within 1/2 inch of each side of the 23" LED monitor, and b) within 6 inches of a Dect 6 AT&T wireless telephone handset. I would not be concerned about buzzing issues with these speakers themselves However, your existing setup could have a bad audio cord or some other problem with your signal source (like, for example, some old tube TVs have very bad 60 Hz buzzing in their audio, even coming through their 'earphone' port) and these speakers would not be the cause of that.

I am sorry that I may not have a perfect answer about wall mounting these speakers but I would suggest contact JBL. I would be sure about mounting these little guys since they are quite heavy. I hope you are able to achieve mounting these speaker. I have had mine for a while now and they are excellent speakers with wonderful sound quality. Goo luck

Yes, this sub is magnetically shielded. I have the sub right behind my tv and havent had any issue with it.

You cannot connect these speakers directly to your tv. They require an AV receiver to power them.

Ultimately they should be mounted slightly behind the listening position At ear level (for a 5.2 system) which would require speaker stands.However if for some reason this is not practical I would suggest using the side wall

No provision. Space them as you would normal speakers. I had mine installed where I wanted them and the installer said the same thing. The audio just carries into more dead areas.Dennis

Wow, so many wrong answers!! These are passive speakers. They don't plug into a wall receptacle; they must be powered by an amp.

Teresa - these speakers are not self-powered in any way, nor do they include any wiring. These are meant to be connected to an amplifier or HI-FI receiver, not to a TV directly. However, if you plug your TV into a receiver, then you might be able to use these.

These are passive speakers, not a stereo system. Must be connected to an amplifier or receiver

Technically, they can, but as they are not powered through USB, you'll need to plug them into your television or sound system.

They should be shielded well enough but the cables/wires may not be. Touch light put a small electic field on items. A disturbance in the field is what enables a touch light to sense 'on/off' touches. Make sure the speakers and cables are well away from them and that should resolve problem (IF that is the problem). Otherwise i like the speakers alot.

Yes, you won't have any problems. They don't have a very high impedance. You will be fine.

They will not be powerful enough to give you any kind of quality sound from a TV. Good for a computer, not so good for a television.

I don't have much room for the center channel. I have it just behind the plasma kept on a stand. I don't see any interference, so assume there is no problem due to the shielding. I might be missing little on the sound, since the speakers are behind the TV, but these sound really good for its size.
