Bose 901 Review Well Done.

Apparently, they are re-releasing the 901's, they look so good!

Grew up in Boston, Bose speakers were everywhere. As a kid, the 901's were amazing. But at that time, all I cared about was loud, party speakers were my main speakers. In fact had speaker from floor to ceiling in my bedroom, that would only be played at concert volume. 

Still think they look cool, have been thinking about getting a used pair, as they show up on Craigslist all the time for $400-800

........didn't the BOSE corporation just buy McIntosh and Sonus Faber ????

Yes they did.

I am among the few that think the 901 is a very good speaker for the right room and electronics. My introduction to King Crimson was Lark's Tongues in Aspic through a very good setup cranked up very loud. I was completely unaware what lay in store for the first track.

With sufficient room and with proper walls and spacing, they are still excellent for medium to loud volumes. For moderate to low volume listening, I prefer other speakers.

Bose made some excellent, groundbreaking designs. Other manufacturers since caught on and have been re-defining what we consider good designs, but Bose deserves its spot in the pantheon of engineering excellence.

Here’s an awesome KC remaster that should send chills.
