tl;dr: You don't need magnetically shielded speakers for PC use.

I think somewhere along the way you got it mixed up what the magnetic shielding in loudspeakers is intended for. It's not to prevent audio quality distortion from outside in the speaker itself. The signals within the speaker are high power and the internal magnets are very powerful, so external magnetic field impact on them is negligible. What the magnetic shielding is for is to prevent the powerful magnets in the speaker from affecting the CRT-based displays (either home TV or PC monitor), which are sensitive to external magnetic fields, and in the worst case, a part of the display can become permanently magnetized, distorting the picture quality even if the external source of the magnetic field is no longer present. That's what the built-in degauss feature is for that some CRT displays have.

But since we no longer primarily use CRT-based displays, magnetic shielding in speakers is no longer that important. The magnetic field from speakers is also not strong enough to be a problem for HDDs either in case you're wondering.

I have these in my living room. Got them for MSRP unfortunately, but I really enjoy them. The midrange is incredibly good with percussion and other elements with fast transients. I'm also quite pleased with the imaging. Bass is just okay- not the tightest (I use them with a sub so no biggie)

I think most people would enjoy this speaker's sound signature, but as is the nature of subjective experience, not everyone will be into it. At $350 I think they're a great choice.

These speakers are great, and I love their funky design. Plus they're front-ported.

He's going to need an amp as well. The AD18 is a phenomenal "budget" amplifier/dac with bluetooth to boot. Mine is powering a VERY low sensitivity RB42 and it can get loud as F.

Here's the AD18:
