I'm not totally certain, but I do believe that's the most original question on this site in quite a long time. The reason you want to avoid magnetics is that the PM's and ICD's have switches which when activated allow access to the set-up and shut down of the devices. The switches are activated by a magnetic field. So in answer, it would not be a good idea to test the theory of operation at Magnetic Cove. The action would likely suspend proper operation of your device.
