'video shielding' safe for TV? (1 Viewer)

Hey all, I'm moved into a new apartment where my roomates have a nice 30" Samsung widescreen TV. I'm replacing their satellite HTIB 5.1 set up with my JBL N-series set up. currently there's no way to mount my N-Center and its sitting on top of the TV. The box says the N-Center has video shielding, so does that mean the TV will be safe, or will it be harmed by having the speaker directly on top of it?

magnetic interference only affects CRT displays. DLP, LCD, Plasma, wont be affected by the magnets.

The majority of newer TVs are sheilded also.

If it's already sitting on top of the TV and there's no visible distortion, then I guess it isn't a problem. You would know immediately if there was, providing it is a CRT.
