Non shielded speakers and LCD monitor

As no one on another forum seems to be able to answer this (or is it too obvious?).
Is there any danger to an LCD monitor of putting unshielded speakers near it?

I know this is a no-no with CRTs but assume LCDs are not worried about magnetic fields.

It should be a non-issue, as LCDs don't use magnetics to steer the non-existant electron beam.

The only danger might be if they produce a large alternating field, as this could induce currents in nearby wiring. Given that they're speakers, rather than motors, I doubt that'll happen.
