Scored a pair of series 3.I refoamed all 18 drivers bought a EQ on eBay sent it in for re-cap and upgrade then hooked them up to Pioneer SX 1250.Ha ha heaven. Reviewed Nov 21st, 2018 by Artfrobadoo My buddy has a pair of supposedly original 901s which I have suspicions of being fakes. The wood does not match. There is no labeling. The terminals are crude. He thinks they are the cats meow. So I searched craigslist and I found a pair of 901s for 200 dollars.http://fiscconsulting.com/userfiles/bosch-maxx-wfl-2260-manual-download.xml Then the guy throws in a beautiful working Kenwood KA 7300 amp. I like my Bose 301's better then these 901 VI. Perhaps it's the amp I have the associated speakers to what. Reviewed Nov 02nd, 2018 by OzDaddyBear I have 901 series VI and there i a plug between left and right termina, there is nothing in the manual to advise what this is fot. Any ideas?l Reviewed Jun 12th, 2018 by Mrsteve I have owned two pair of these. The first pair a series IV, the Second pair a Series VI. I took advantage of the Bose Trade-in program some years ago when they still offered it. There are several companies that offer the drivers, and replacing them for both pair is around 560.00-Plus the time involved.I need to do a repair on the equalizer. I cannot find the Series III Service Manual. Thanks To be use for PA system or Karaoke. Any suggestion for an appropriate mixer. I'm looking for resources to help me troubleshoot and repair the equalizer. I don't have much experience, but I would like to learn, and this seems like a fun project. If anyone is willing to help break things down as simple as is convenient, or could help guide me in this process, I would be very grateful. We all have to start somewhere. I refurbished the speakers myself, and would like to say I did the same to the equalizer. Due to purchasing from a second hand store and not really knowing enough about them I consequently now own two right hand speakers. Not sure how this will affect the speakers. While it might well be quite possible to fix, I would be more interested in feeding the speakers from another signal source. The cable from the preamp connects to the speakers via a five-pin 180 degrees DIN plug, and so I think it should be quite possible to connect to some other signal source, the same way I have used a pair of Philips MFB speakers. Am I right or am I right. Anyone have any experience of the 901p active speakers. Or of other Bose Lifestyle 20 substitutes for them? No need to attend a live concert anymore.https://www.becompta.be/emploi/bosch-tankless-water-heater-owners-manual With Two Pair in the proper positions you've got your own live performance!

Michael 5.0 out of 5 stars Backed by direct quotes from Consumer Guide The twice-as-loud level, with this as a reference, was confirmed at 100 dB SPL for 25 watts input. Another doubling of apparent volume brought the sound level up to 110 dB with the amplifier showing about 250 watts per channel into the system. At 23 Hz it was down by about 5.5 dB but still evident and containing a good deal of fundamental bass signal. Midbass was very smooth and well defined, with no booming but with ample power. Middles and highs extended to beyond audibility, with a roll off starting at about 16 kHz, but with energy still evident in the 20 kHz region in a very wide angle about the system. Response through the entire treble range was remarkably smooth and even, with no annoying peaks or dips and with excellent dispersion. On normal program material, the Series IV system produced very satisfying music reproduction that was wide-range in terms of frequency span and dynamics. The performance of the system is characterized by fullness of tone, balanced musicality, excellent transients, and very clear definition combined with the ability to convey the effect of massed instrumental power when applicable. Stereo imaging was superior, both laterally and in terms of front-to-rear depth. The 901 Series IV did not favor one kind of music over another; it sounded equally realistic on small ensembles and on the largest orchestral and choral works. In our opinion, it will please classical music lovers, rock fans, and people with any type of listening preferences in between. The most current Bose 901 once again proves to be a highly preferred speaker system.I have had the for about 40 years and have never had a problem. I do agree however that it is very difficult to find an amp or receiver that is compatible with the active equalizer.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again. Other than using a green sharpie to get better CD sound, or that guy that calls you on the phone and osmotically makes your system sound better, no greater myth exists in audio today than that of the Bose 901 speakers. Much like Bigfoot, have you even seen a pair of Bose 901 speakers or, better yet, heard them? My Fiat 500 Sport has a Bose sound system, and yes, it possesses admirable bass extension (so there!) and a wide stereo image from the driver’s seat. I also experienced Bose on a recent trip home from Spain, where I sampled the new Burmester sound system in the latest Porsche 911 Cabriolet, and Porsche was kind enough to fly me home first class. The latter experience came with a pair of Bose Noise Canceling headphones (another product I’d never actually used, but about which I heard plenty of scuttlebutt). I’m thinking of investing in a pair before my next European trip. So that’s two strikes in Bose’s favor. My last memory of the speakers harkens back to a jazz club in my hometown of Milwaukee that actually had the speakers installed into the ceiling by their pedestal bases and powered by a Marantz 4300 quad receiver. Another area venue had their ceiling-mounted 901s powered by a large stack of McIntosh gear. Both systems were pleasant. Not to be outdone, another bar owner installed Magnepan MGIIs from the ceiling, which, coincidentally, ended up being destroyed by a ruckus started by the Milwaukee Rugby Club after a hearty victory. And so it goes. Sure, I love my Maggie 1.7s, but they don’t produce a lot of bass, either, and really need a lot of juice to give their best performance. And don’t even get me started on single-driver Lowthers. Been there, done that, too. Are you thinking mythbusting? Me too. I bought a random pair of 901s via the Web for retail price. I initially tried to contact Bose to see if we could get a review pair, but no one at the PR department would return my call. Hence, there will be less historical data accompanying the review, which is unfortunate, as the speaker is now on its sixth iteration of development and changed somewhat since its introduction in 1968. Unless we get a phone call, this will remain an unresolved question. If I must have a pair of 901s, I can special order them or go directly to the Web site. I do the latter, and about 90 seconds after getting to the home page, a pair of walnut 901s with pedestal bases is on its way. Six days later, the 901s arrive on my doorstep, safe and sound. Next, the listening begins. Will the speakers fall off their pedestals. Stay tuned for Part Two. An Eames lounge chair and an old copy Playboy is all that’s required for the full-on Austin Powers effect. Groovy, baby! However, using them with the metal bases requires wood screws. While the holes are predrilled, you probably won’t utilize them more than a couple times without causing permanent damage to the speaker base. I can’t imagine a company as large as Bose wouldn’t be able to add threaded inserts without raising cost. Yet if you are considering using your 901s with any kind of upgraded cable, don’t permanently attach the bases until you make a cable commitment. I employed Radio Shack’s 16-gauge speaker wire for the majority of listening sessions. The second involves the Sooloos Music Server feeding Wadia’s new 121 decoding computer to the Unison Research S6 vacuum-tube amplifier. At the very end of the sessions, the Pass Labs XA200.5 monoblocks were employed to see just how loud the 901s could play. Because the majority of the drivers face rearward, placement is the key to fine-tuning the imaging performance. If you are used to the sound of traditional box speakers, 901s—when tightly placed in room corners—sound much larger than life and boast an exaggerated soundstage. They feel like the remnants of a hallucinogenic experience. The 901s’ modest size encourages experimentation, which proves equally successful in my smaller 11 x 17-foot living room as well as in my 16 x 25-foot dedicated room. Placed about eight feet apart, eight feet from a couch, and about five feet out into the listening room appeared perfect, and allowed the sound from the front-firing driver to anchor the presentation. Exactly like every panel speaker I’ve used in the room, the 901s were much more interesting on the long wall. Traditionalists, before you cry foul, think of the popularity of DSP-based speakers these days. Bose achieves a similar, if less sophisticated and considerably less-expensive effect with a passive EQ. The manual states the EQ can be used with series V 901s, but earlier models require the proper box. The supplied pair of three-foot RCA patch cords gets the ball rolling. The EQ features a two-position button: position one offering a flatter response, and position two adding a slight bass bump, not unlike the loudness button on a 70s receiver. Finally, there are two sliding controls for mid-bass and mid-treble, the latter claiming the most control over the overall tonal balance. Fortunately, audio pack rat and contributor Jerold O’Brien still has a mint pair of MGIIs to which I listened for direct comparison. Sure enough, they enjoy a softer, more relaxed high-frequency response, just like the 901s. The current MMG we reviewed possesses a bit more treble extension than the original MGIIs, but does not throw as large a soundfield. And, both Magnepan models need a ton of power to get up and go. A suite of Joni Mitchell tunes from Court and Spark, Hissing of Summer Lawns, and Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter captures her voice in the same approximate place as it’s found in my reference system. Sampling a wide range of solo vocalists reveals the importance of the mid-treble slider. Push too much for treble brightness and the vocals become grainy—not unlike when adjusting toe-in with a conventional speaker. Ted Nugent’s “My Love is Like a Tire Iron” from Intensities in Ten Cities equates to an impressive experience when cranked to brain-damage levels. Nugent’s band is spread-out between and beyond the speaker boundaries, and never diminishes in intensity when I get up off the couch to grab another beer. These speakers rock. A quick listen to a handful of bass heavy tracks from Pink Floyd, Genesis and Yello proved highly convincing and again, way more powerful than a number of small stand mounted speakers that I’m very familiar with. Its incredibly wide dispersion comes in a close second. The Bose 901s sound great anywhere in the room, and what you might give up in terms of ultra-focused, sweet-spot listening, you’ll gain in spades when you have a room full of people. These could very well be one of the world’s three or four best party speakers. Again, compromise: Would you like a pair of speakers that you just listen to in your listening chair for private sessions, or do you do most of your listening in secondary mode while hanging out in the house cooking and entertaining? Precious few include components sporting any better quality. I’ve heard a handful of speakers that check a couple more audiophile boxes than the 901s, but I’ve heard many more that sound much worse. Much as I hate audiophile cliches, the “sins of omission” has never been truer than with these speakers. They are so smooth and musical, it’s tough to freak out about the missing detail. When the keyboard enters the first verse of Joni Mitchell’s “Trouble Child,” it’s subdued, as are the bongos at the beginning of “Jericho.” Again, I suspect information is lost in the EQ and through the stock cables. What the 901s sacrifice here, they make up for on a broader scale via the ability to play really loud and without strain. Turning up Ace Frehley’s “Genghis Khan” from Anomaly at a level that hits 100 db peaks proves effortless. Other than plasma tweeter designs, I’ve had my hands on almost everything over the past 35 years. Quad 57s are more beguiling through the midband, the MartinLogan speakers carry more extension at both ends of the frequency spectrum, and the Magepans lie somewhere in between. But they cost more and present greater challenges to a room and system. I found the most lifelike sound came via a configuration slightly counterintuitive to that suggested by the manual. Indeed, my audiophile buddies that I bribed into my listening room with IPAs are still shocked at just how good the 901s sound. As my wife likes to say, “What if Bigfoot is really a nice guy?” Consider this myth busted. But—and like Pee Wee Herman likes to say, “Everyone has a big but”—the 901 gets the essence of the music right. The crossoverless design does a fantastic job with pace, which is what always draws me to single-driver and full-range electrostatic designs. Add a better source and substitute a great tube integrated, and you’ll be shocked at the sheer musicality of the combination. Considering that this model is aimed more at the mass market than the audiophile, the 901s possess more than enough virtue to be considered an excellent value. They are certainly one of the most fun speakers I’ve had the pleasure to hear. Isn’t that what this is all supposed to be about? So forget all the folklore you’ve heard about the Bose 901s, these are serious speakers.But how do they respond to the usual tweaks applied by audiophile to practically every other speaker? For example, it’s very easy to note the variation between the Pioneer SX-424 and Cambridge 740 amplifier, as well as the distinction between tube and solid-state amplification. Again, just as a traditional speaker benefits, the 901s profit from solid speaker stands that are spiked at the bottom. The Sound Anchor stands also make it much easier to take advantage of upgraded speaker cable, as it must travel down the center of the Bose pedestals. Those planning on using audiophile-vetted cable will have to get handy with a large drill bit to modify the stands. There’s no way you can pair Nordost Odin speaker cable with the 901s and the stock pedestal stands. Don’t even think about it. My spirit of investigation encouraged this tact, but it was not my favorite position. There’s slightly more HF extension, but the big, expansive soundfield that makes the speaker so enticing simply disappears. These speakers have been a blast to listen to with every kind of music. While they yield decent performance with a low-budget receiver, they are worthy of journeyman-level components and a modest cable upgrade. Advanced hobbyists could probably uncover even more performance by modding the EQ’s passive components, but doing so is well beyond the scope of this review and definitely voids the warranty.

The active equalizer helps to balance out frequency outputs so that you can enjoy a more concise, natural balance and tone. The Acoustic Matrix enclosure minimizes noise within the chamber so that you can hear low frequencies that are well defined and accurate.This iteration of Bose classic speaker systems boasts an internal structure Acoustic Matrix made of molded plastic. This allows the unit to churn out giant sound even with minimally powered amplifiers, receivers, and other accessories. It is flexible when it comes to handling a wide range of wattage. The cabinet and pedestals are compact and light enough to be easily moveable. This makes it easy to find the right location to take advantage of the sound range and fully engage these speakers' full power.These floor-standing speakers come in a pair and include an active equalizer that allows you to customize the sound before it goes to an amplifier. The speakers can be anchored to a shelf, wall-mounted, or placed on the floor atop the included stands. These black devices allow you plenty of options to match the aesthetic of any room space. A single speaker can often be enough to produce the results that every audiophile is looking for. The design makes the Bose 901 series a great choice for listening to vintage records, DVDs, or home theater. This broad, space-wide resonance is called Stereo Everywhere. These speakers are designed to have a nominal power level of 10 watts but can handle up to 450 watts with the right wiring and setup. They look as powerful as their performance levels, measuring 21.1 inches high, 12.8 inches wide, 21 inches deep, and weighing in at 35 pounds.With the placement of these Bose speakers and other electronics and components of a surround sound system in the room, you can turn any space into an arena. These speakers allow you to hear how TV or music sounds are supposed to be experienced. A calling card of these speakers is the projection of booming bass and clarity of crisp treble. These aren't diminished when the room is crowded. It's helpful to have the experience of many years of use and the first-hand experience of thousands of stereo aficionados in choosing a speaker system that has served well. The Bose reputation for quality is upheld with the Series VI speaker system. It is excellent when used either as a component to a home theater system or for music alone. Series III to VI - Vintage BOSE 901 driver for speaker replacement. I wish for more vibrant highs (tweeters) and a better stereo image. I was skeptical about the low octaves and BAAAMMMMM, I saw my heavy remote falling to the floor from the sofa. I am serious about calling these units subwoofers, they don't create any chuffing sounds from the ports. I know that the adcom 565 monoblocks that I have powering them are NO JOKE too.but these speakers are not big and they vibrate the floors, walls and the whole room.including me.I am giving them a 30 day trial still and they are only a couple hours old in my system. My daily speakers are dynastats by speaker lab. I just had to try the 901s for myself. I miss the stereo image of the dynastat but love the mids and bass of the 901s. I figure the little woofers added together give a greater surface area too. I have about 28 days to go given the shipping transit time is accounted for in their trial time. Speaker placement is key, because a 3in distance in my setup was the difference between muddy vocals and stupidly low bass octaves. I am using 12ga speakerwire from blue jean cables. The speaker wire is a tight fit with spades but worth it. The equalizer comes with crappy rca cables, lol, I don't think so, I am using monster m1000i, I like their flat sound, so I have kept them over the years. The eq is thrown into the mix by the preamp out from my passive pre-amp and the eq feeds the 565 monoblocks by adcom. Good Luck with your 901 speaker placement, mine was easy but my room is rectangular and somewhat bright from the hardwalls. I also have the eq set neutral for midbass and midtreble. I purchased my bose speakers almost 30years ago. At the time I had them set up in my bedroom and I must admit I was not impressed. The space was cramped and there was little room for them to display their true abilities. I have the impression that many of the negative comments are the result of the speakers not being properly situated. When I moved to my present location I had the chance to place the speakers in an more advantageous area. TheI stayed up half the night listening to music I have heard many times before. At present, the 901s are part of a multichannel system featuring a paradigm center channel and a pair of smaller Polk speakers in the rear. Th e low end is covered by a Hsu Research VTF15. Music and movies are breathtaking in their clarity and power. Amplification is provided by an Onkyo Integra receiver and a vintage Soundcraftsman 2 channel amp. The 901s are powered by the Soundcraftsman giving each of them 175 watts of dedicated encouragement. The center channel and the rear speakers are powered by the Integra. I haven't hooked them up yet. I have to repair the rear speak covers stays. Because I listen to music somewhere around 200 watts per channel, the rear covers blow off. No biggie. Been designing and building Professional Sound Systems 30 years in the Entertainment Industry so I am positive that I can improve the design and update it with present technology. I can hear things that I couldn't on my old speakers. I've had a lot of different speakers in the past years. These Bose have a unique sound. They lack the deep bass which can be obtained with the use of a separate sub woofer if your listening style requires that extra punch. The clarity on these are amazing. I can hear the bass guitarist sliding their fingers on the strings and the vocalist take a breath before the next line. I finally 30 years later bought a pair of the series VI with eq. These speakers are amazing. The highs, the mids, the lows all come to life as if your at the show. Only thing is to make sure that you place them properly. 80 of the sound comes out of the back of the speaker so place at least a foot and a half away from the wall. If you can place them in a corner even better with a foot and half away from all walls. Its as if you have surround sound and boy can these things crank.
