Bose 601

I bought a pair of Bose 601 series II at a yard sale. The PO had replaced the woofers with Magnavox ones. I have a couple of pairs of junk Bose 301's around. Are those woofers the same as the 601's?

Don't think so. Pretty sure the 601s (my brother had a pair way back in the day) were quite a bit larger.

I could be wrong, and I'm certain there are a lot of Bose fans here who can give a better answer than me.
 
I dug into my junk speaker pile and found a Bose 301 Series II. Yes, the part numbers are the same so they will work fine.

I took apart a Bose 301 Series III and it has the same woofer also. Same part number anyway. So, maybe they are all the same.
 
IMO the 601s are the best sounding Bose speakers ever made! Nice find.

+++1 The 601 II is an excellent speaker, especially with jazz and classical. A PERFECTLY placed 901 with a monster amp will give them a run, but for all around performance, my money is on the 601 II for top Bose.
