The best speaker you ever heard?

The responses you have received in this thread and many others should make it clear to you that most of us are not interested in your ploy.

If you are not a shill, you are plainly misinformed about where the Bose 901 belongs in the audio hierarchy. Nine table radio speakers in a disarray contorted by a deep smiley graphic EQ has only so much potential. And that potential maxed out back in the 1970s.

Hifiguy,

If you want to have a prayer of convincing others here the new 901s are in teh same league as some the best out there, I think you need to offer up some details as to how you reach this conclusion. What are you comparing to and what similarities or differences are you hearing that leads to your conclusion?

My gut tells me it might do pretty well in the midrange as you indicated if set up well, but am hard pressed to understand how it can handle frequency extremes as well as better designs in that regard.

Not everyone cares about those things though, so with that caveat in place, I might see where some think these are the cat's meow, but one should really offer up some facts or details to support one's conclusions, especially when perhaps as surprising to many here as yours.

I remember going in a Bose store years ago and sitting through the demonstration using the BIG speakers on the wall. I did wonder why there were not using Bose speakers until they took the grills/shells off of the walls and exposed the cubes hiding behind.

Is it possible that the new version of the Bose 901's that are seemingly so wonderful are really just a shell around another brand speaker?

Macrojack, the topic here is about...The BEST speaker YOU ever heard. To my EARS, the latest BOSE 901's right up there "among the finest sounding speakers on the market" and that's all that matters !....

It doesn't seem to matter what the topic is as long as you can find some way to intrude upon it with your uninformative, unconvincing and unremitting Bose claims.

The 901 is a bogus design, a con, that has shown remarkable longevity in the face of common sense and common knowledge. Give it a rest.
