Would placing things on top of monitors(such as lava lamps) affect the performance ?
thanks

Probably not — if you can't hear any rattling because of, for example, an uneven
lava-lamp base then you'll probably be fine. They do get quite hot though, so watch out
for that if they're active speakers because there's a slim chance the amps might overheat.
A more likely problem is that you end up staring at the lava lamp for too long and start
seeing the hidden messages. A cup of tea and a lie-down tends to solve that, though.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Danny! If you're at all worried by the possibility of vibration, just afix
your lava lamps with three small lumps of Bluetak  Martin

If the lava lamp uses a normal incandescent bulb then the bulb won't last as long thanks
to the vibration. James.
