Back in 1981 I bought a pair of Bose 901s. I auditioned them against a pair of Tannoy Big Red monitors and the Bose were smaller and better.

I’ve moved 5 times since then and they have been stored in the basement/loft of the last three as the wife didn’t want them intruding in the room (they are reflective and need to be located in fairly precise location x amount of feet from the walls in order to work properly).

For their size they were pretty awesome. I have never heard any other product of theirs sound even remotely as good. I think once they got a name for themselves they invested most of their revenue in marketing rather than development.

Do you realize pretty much everyone here disagrees with you on the 901's?
Civil War reenactment is LARPing for people with no imagination.

Dont care... I know what I heard....

.....driven by a pink Triangle turntable, an  RGR pre-amp, and a Carver Cube power amp.

The only thing i would say was that placement was very critical...
What do you mean you wanted it on the other wall - couldn't you have mentioned this when we prewired?
