I just moved and the new house is right by a cell tower, it's causing interference with my monitors (Yamaha HS7) so I'm looking for advice on monitors with magnetic shielding. I've plugged the HS7s into different outlets in different rooms and all with no input cable, everywhere sounds like this with varying degrees of loudness. (Studio room is naturally the worst one...) Don't really feel like opening them up and adding copper shielding or whatever other answers I've read about online. We won't be in this house forever, maybe 3-5 years. I have tried my hand at mixing and it hasn't clicked for me so future music I will end up hiring someone to mix/master anyway. So they don't have to be perfect, just sound pretty nice, not cost a fortune (likely to grab used on reverb or ebay), etc. Anyone have recommendations?

With that said I do have an old pair of Behringer MS16s which are supposed to be magnetically shielded and I plugged them in and they still have some of that noise as well so maybe it's hopeless. Or maybe those are just garbage.

 

Yamaha MSP series have magnetic shielding, they are very reasonably priced second hand and there's chance you end up keeping them instead of HS series on the long run.
