i was playing along to a cd (with my dvd player) and i set my amp beside the tv to reduce noise going downstairs.
all of a sudden, i noticed this weird red glow on the tv screen...

will this do any damage to my tv/amp? its never happened before and im asking just in case something breaks or blows up or something...

i dunno if this should be in tech support or musicians section or whatever...
i posted it here anyway...

theres probably no reason, they probably just throw one in there to ruin tv's so you will have to buy new ones, its a big government conspiracy.

Yea, it's magnets. It does that to computers too.

I think it will eventually go away because this happened to me and over time it went away.
