    Why are people buying up Bose speakers on Craigslist?

    They are more room-dependent than most speakers, but it is really hard to beat a pair of 901s in the right room. Room-filling sound with a very wide sweet spot. Honestly, they are pretty fantastic if you give them enough power. Here is a review of some modern 901s that may surprise you...

    Calling All Yamahas. Time to Post Your Pics

    Love my CR-1020 Man I love the sound. It is driving Bose 901 Series II, and I've recently swapped the turntable for a Technics SL1200 MK2. For digital, I just have an old Airport Express pumping iTunes to the Aux. I'd love to re-veneer the speakers and recap the receiver (all I've done is...

    Heard Bose 901 VI speakers and really like them ! Any 901 fans ?

    To each his own. Maybe my 40 year old ears just can't hear the very upper registers.

When a guitar player slides his fingers on the strings it is like he (or she) is...

    CR1020 output meters

    Sure, deep listening requires eyes closed. But I figure, if the meters are there they can do something. I'm guessing the above mentioned cap is leaking. I have really inefficient speakers (Bose 901 Series II, with active EQ). I can't imagine 1 watt is driving these above normal listening, but...

    CR1020 output meters

    Not sure I follow. So you are saying that since it is a common problem, you don't believe they should be set with the adjustment pots?

    CR1020 output meters

    When I first got my CR1020 I thought the output meters were busted. The right one worked fine for signal quality, but they didn't seem to be saying I was putting output to the speakers. Now that I've had it awhile, I realize they aren't broken: they just don't say I'm putting out power until it...
