Which Recievers can I use with My Bose 901's ?

Oh, yeah. One more thing. If you have 901 Series III or IV, you can connect them to a very rare Bose receiver, and use the third speaker cable connection which will allow you to play games with the spatial perspective of the speakers.

Far as I know, ONLY the Bose receivers were equipped to take advantage of this third terminal, and when Bose quit making receivers, they quit putting the third terminal on the Series V and VI speakers.

Mine are used with a $1 (plus shipping) eBay receiver. It's a JVC JR-S201, 35 wild animal watts per channel into 8 ohms.

I never get manage to get the volume slider more than about 1/2 of it's travel, or the neighbors in the houses next-door would complain. They're in a 1000 sq. ft. garage and of course the overhead door is usually open...

Yes, plug the equalizer into any tape loop if you don't have a pre-out/main-in connection. The equalizer should have a tape loop built in, to replace the one you're using on the receiver.

Thank You Jabyo and Bbro for your
input.

I drove a pair of series III 901's for many years (in my younger slightly more rockin' higher volume days-early 1980's) with a Marantz 2270 receiver (70 watt/channel which had pre out's main in's), with great success. I also later drove them with an Adcom GPP555/GFA 555 200watts per channel combo and the Marantz gave up very little to the Adcoms. You can ocassionally find a 2270 for $300-$400 on Audiogon in good shape and you will have a nice vintage piece to boot.

they will work with any receiver that has a tape/monitor function also. a nad, denon, outlaw or harman-kardon (or any integrated or pre power combo with lots of power will drive them......enjoy, they are classics
