Placing a Desktop tower on top of a subwoofer?

[tomashen]

i was just wondering today what if i took my subwoofer out of under the desk(in corner) and put it on top of my desk(in middle of room) and put my desktop tower right on top of this subwoofer?

Corsair SP2500 audio system.
and custom built gaming rig.

would it be perfectly fine?
or would it damage my system somehow?

NOTE: i do like to turn the bass up for some nice kicks and punches. however i hate rumbles. i only turn bass up for clean kicks and punches.

DO NOT DO IT. The vibrations will damage the computer. Also, the magnets if they are not shielded properly can also cause random reliability issues, loss of data or worse.

ok thanks ! glad to get an answer so quick .

i have no idea where to place this sp2500 subwoofer... cables are very limiting. logitech x530 was no issue.. i could place any speaker at any place in my room...

now my sp2500 is rumbling so much i hate it .. cant get clean kicks 90% of the time

Why the difference, from kicks to rumbling?

i dont know. i have tryed all EQ settings.. all SP2500 Pod settings... nothing helps.. bass is either rumbling or not working at all.. cannot get nice kicking punching bass. using msi z97 gaming 5 mobo .

Is that why you thought of putting the computer on top of it? Perhaps to weigh it down?
