Bose 901 Review Well Done.

OP, thanks for the link to review.  I’ve never heard the 901, but from everything I’ve read or heard, it surprises me that a reviewer really likes them.  

When I was a kid, I would dream about 901's from all the ads in Stereo review. Thru the years I thought about building a vintage 2nd system and finding a pair. 

One thing, never dismiss vintage components (assume everything is working). People and reviewers back then knew what sounded good too. 

I went vintage with my speaker cables and found a mint pair of MONSTER M 2.2 series. I love how they fit in with my system. Good cabling is good cabling

Back in the day, my Army days, the PX had these brand of speakers. Bose, Polk (new on the scene) Klipsch, Cerwin Vega, Infinity, JBL, Technics and Pioneer. Maybe a few others. Ahhhh... those were the early days.

Many bashers here on this speaker. Its a unique sound which is not for everyone.  It has spatial direct reflecting sound. Not for me, but its a product for music listening that got marketed so well.
