Bose 901

Seems like a reasonable review. 

Oldschool , you must have in the Air Farce to have a system like that in
Germany !
We Infantrymen could buy them but seldom bought anything over 6 ounces .

The basic premise of the 901 is fatally flawed: to imitate the ratio of direct vs. reflected sound in concert halls. That idea ignores the fact that recordings made in those halls contain both direct and reflected sound---there is no way for the listener to separate the two. To then duplicate that ratio via the loudspeaker is to double the effect.

Very true, Eric.  In addition, the difference in time between the arrival at the listener's ears of the directly heard sound and the reflected sound is so vastly different in a concert hall vs. in a home listening room that the reflected sounds will be perceived entirely differently in the two cases.

Seriously..........who really cares for the sophisticato answer....Recently a poster  dropped several thousand dollars on a system and cannot play certain tracks because the sound is intolerable.

The 901s with Panache can play this track.
