Default My equipment review of the Bose 901

[snip]
Bose states that the 901-VI was engineered by passionate music lovers.

This
fact is so highly obvious once you give the speaker a listen in an
appropriate setup [and the Bose Store may very well not be the best!]. It
seems like no other speaker system delivers powerful accuracy quite like
this one!


To avoid being a laughingstock, I suggest you emphasize that the above is
your own opinion.

Virtually no one would agree with you, and the impression you made on the
stereo salesman was completely in your own mind.

When these speakers were originally designed, little was known of modern
acoustic theory, which firmly established that bouncing 89% of the sound off
the room walls may be intended to be a beneficial effect, but is actually a
severe degradation.

The 901's do not conform to modern theory or practice, and are notably
inferior to practically any modern speaker sold at more than a moderate
price point.
