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.

Anyone have any thoughts on whether these would be a significant improvement over the Infinity R162 speakers? (the 162s are fine for movies where the center and sub make things shine, but I find them meh for music for some reason).
If they would be a noticeable improvement, will these blend okay with the Infinity 263 center?
Running a Yamaha 7850 avr, with bass management ("small"), if that's relevant.
Edit: for anyone considering these vs the r162, I take back my complaint about the r162 with music. My receiver had "enhancement" enabled on the airplay input. Once I disabled that, things are sounding great.

The only thing with that would make me hesitate is that I worry about the durability of the exterior finish. The finish appears to be a relatively thin wrap. This is going to be fine if you have a house of responsible adults. I don't think these would hold up to repeated lightsaber hits like my Polk Signature speakers have. The speaker still look great.

Ps: just realized that if you leave that page in your link open long enough, a 20% off coupon pops up. So, about same as Amazon.
