So I get a new 32" CRT TV and set it up and I get magnetic problems, Find out its my big stereo speakers.

So I spent 8 hours re-arranging my living room and in the process I have to move the computer desk 1 wall over no now its facing 90 degrees in a different direction. Now I am getting a wobbling picture:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Its not a refresh rate problem like where you have a vibrating picture, its a real slow wobble where the sides bow in and moves down the screen..

I have only had the monitor on for a half hour, anyone know if this will stop if I leave it for a while??????? I am assuming its doing this from changing the monitors direction, this apple studio display is F**KING hidious for magnetic distortion.

Please someone give me some insight for this monitor, will it go away and get used to the new direction? I dont want to have to buy another one. If I do it will have to wait for me to save up a bit more extra cash for a flat panel LCD, I am getting so fed up with CRT's.

PS, the monitor is even further away from the speakers, and the speakers before didnt really bother it, I am thinking its from moving the monitor in a new direction... right?
 
Wobble genearlly = ac current. Generally a unsheilded fan, but ac mains and the like running behind a screen have caused it before as well. And 32" CRT? Thats a TV :p

Thats what I figured,

The 32" is my TV, the monitor I am talking about is a 17" studio display.

Heh, I need to get more sleep, or do less statics/calc/survey while going without sleep. But it still sounds like ac interference to me.
