| Most "Accurate/Realistic" Sounding Speakers? If you like the "snap" or "slam" of the snare and cymbals, you may consider adding a dbx 3bx III or 3bx DS (or the holy grail - the 5BX) component to your system. While it may or may not add "color" it will likely provide the realism you're lookin... | |
| Bose 901 Series ii I had 901's as did many of my friends while I was in high school and early college. The best match for the 901 speakers I heard then were Marantz preamp paired with Marantz power amp. Very "tube-like" and delicious mids. The overall presentation... | |
| Bose 901 Series ii Oh, and rather than stack the 901's, I'd place one pair on the floor with the Bose 901 stands and hang the other pair from the ceiling. (901's MUST be used with the Bose active equalizer - it would be near impossible to replicate the active eq as... | |

My Klipsch's are bi-amped with 100W p/c to the tweeter and 200W p/c to th... | |
| Anyone Using Bose 901 speakers In A Home Theater? Bose products are not about accuracy, but rather musicality. They are not designed for critical listening, but rather casual enjoyment. I had owned 301's as well as 901's in the past and I was very satisfied with the amazing soundstage they provi... | |
| Recommendation for a power conditioner My basic premise is to look for a conditioner that does not use chokes or limits its application. Whenever chokes are involved, it limits current and seems to color the audio signature of your components - especially, if your amplifiers are high c... | |
| Bose 901 series VI & Yamaha A-S2000 I know this is an old thread, but I'm posting my 2 cents. BOSE 901 series is actually a decent pair of speakers. I currently own a pair of 901 Series VI. They hang in my dining room/kitchen area and reproduce music very musically with their unique... |
