Bose 901 Review Well Done.

There was a kid in college that had a pair hanging in the corners up near the ceiling.  Phase Linear amp.  I was totally jealous. It definitely cranked.

@sls883 , I remember back in the early '80s when I was in the Air Force I had a buddy who had a pair matched up with some big Japanese amp and we all thought the same thing.  These crank and they are great!  When he had outdoor parties at his place, he would move his system outside, and I do remember that his system would broadcast!  

Holy Shxxxt ! The comments page exploded as expected.

Just go to my channel and find out what I think of Bose (not Boze White People).

All Highs, Sweet Mids, & Deep Bass....It Must Be Bose !

Every speaker I have ever heard brought something unique to the show. Sometimes better, sometimes worse. Sometimes wow! But they all let you hear the music from a different perspective. That being said, my experience with the 901’s was in the barracks in Germany when one of my buddies had to have them (because of the hype) and my experience was not good because he had no clue how to set them up properly and if he did there was no way to do it in a dorm room! I always wondered what they would’ve sounded like if they were properly set up. I did find the EQ colored the sound but that was expected but you can color the sound with a paint choice. I’m sure that would be the case with something that mostly bounces the sound off of the walls. I’ll bet if you set them up properly they would sound cool in their own right. They most likely would be a novelty item for me but fun to play around with nonetheless! Most importantly, ETM!  Cheers
