Bose 901

I have a pair of the final series with a pair of Foster external tweeters and Klipsch 12 inch subs. I’m driving them with monoblock VTA Amps and they sound pretty amazing. My previous set up was AR MGC’s with an SAE solid state amp. Yes I’m a child of the 70’s and early 80’s audio. I’m quite satisfied with my 901s.

Fostex stupid spell check 🙄

........is an audiophile.

Back in 1982 I listened to 901 Series IV, I believe. Fun speakers! College dorm rooms. Mine were Boston Acoustics A70s. 

The 901s took up very little space, played to loud volumes, and did a nice job rendering detail without fatigue. Bass was tight, not boomy or overblown. AC/DC “Back In Black” was a favorite, from an Empire 2000Z cart. Billy Joel “Glass Houses” was fun. Michael Jackson “Off The Wall” and Thriller at loud volumes sounded pretty amazing!

i wouldn’t mind having a pair today! Great bang for the buck, if you’re careful! I would not reform; I would use butyl rubber surrounds.

I would also like having a pair.

Your experience similar to mine...
