Could my new speakers hurt my LCD TV?

Hey guys

Me and the GF bought a new LCD Full-HD TV a little while ago. Now I wanna get some speakers to go along with it. However, through most of my life I've tried to be careful with speakers as they have magnets in them. I'm guessing most of us know what magnets would do to older CRT sets. Discolouration was a potential problem.

I know LCD and CRT is not the same technology and I can't see why liquid crystals should be affected by speaker magnets .. but then again I'm not 100% sure and I'm loathe to do anything that might risk the health of that nice full hd picture.

So, my question : let's say I get some speakers and they are not protected. Can I put them close to my LCD TV? Like right next to it or less than a foot away?
