A different, multi-band stereo EQ (probably active) may help boost original 901 drivers better than the stock EQ.
Or, that, plus, possibly adding two or three high end tweeters. 1 up front and 2 on the rear panels. Balancing this modification and 901 location is critical.
My listening area is 30 x 30 feet. When I toed-in the RF-7's in mono as a dual-centers, the difference was huge compared to the smaller RC-7. It corrected driver height problems and smaller soundstage problems common with smaller center channel speakers (usually placed above or below the screen on a stand).
I started looking at other "front mains" for surrounds. The 901's design simply jumped out. Proper placement is tricky.
I prefer a very full, lush, clear analog sound. My fronts have sealed 15's, three 6 inch mids and six tweeters in each cabinet, perfectly balanced, powered by built-in 300+ watt amps.
My smaller, in-ceiling surrounds are definately lacking equal depth and spaciousness throughout the room.
Comments or suggestions? 901's overlooked by audiophiles as surrounds? Thank you.
