Soundstage Confusion
After overlooking the real problem for several days, I walked away from it.  Today, I figured out my problem.  I'm embarrassed to say, it was me.  While moving my NAD out of the old rack and placing it on the floor, I somehow moved the Bridge swit...

Guys, I appreciate the help.  I'm a techie by trade and I recognize that when troubleshooting, you only change one thing at a time.  Silly me, I didn't expect that adding a rack would cause this kind of issue when two amps play fine in the same po...

Bose 901
Back in the late 80's while stationed in Germany, I went to a party in Shape, Belgium where the DJ was blasting a pair of 901's that sounded like crap because he was using an EQ other than the Bose EQ.  I asked him why; he said he did not need it ... 
Bose 901
In the early 80's while stationed in Germany, I purchased a pair of original 901's with the EQ and chrome stands.  At the time, my system consisted of a Pioneer SPEC-4 power amp, SoundCraftsman SP-4001 EQ/pre amp, Technics SL-1600MK2 TT, Pioneer P...
