Well my tv is a 32" Cathon-Ray-Tube TV and the manuel says that the axiom subwoofers are (for whatever reason) unshielded and can cause interference to CRT tvs. I asked a friend about that and he said its weird that axioms are unshielded. My room is aprox 10' wide, 10' long, and about 7.5' tall. Also I live in a house...there are no industrialed sized equipment here to screw it up like that.
