Upgrading bose 301's .. the next step ?


I'm looking for a few suggestions on upgrading my bose 301's. They actually sound ok with my 1960 H/K A500 integrated tube amp. I am not looking to spend more than 1000. thanks for the input.

Don't use the B&W's with a great vintage tube amp, no matter what they say the cdm's and especially the matrix 805's are little power hogs, don't forget to factor in some long green for some sturdy speaker stands, the 602's can induce vomiting and wopuld be a criminal waste of good tubes. You need an efficient speaker like the beautiful meadowlark kestrel, easy to drive and will givw you a reasonable bass with a low powered tube amp. They are much better than the PSB's and sounstage like crazy. The Reynauds are french, hey viva La France but for bang for buck look no further than sunny California. and don't forget a tasty new SACD player. Sony 333es $550 at Oade Bros.............Hey have some fun!
