    Re: Bose 901

    Well, I did download the files onto my machine, but I did so for the day I will actually have a good sound card in my machine. I only have a laptop at the moment and no external speakers (lol!). I love Clair de Lune, and would love to hear your version of it, but it will have to wait until I have a means to do it justice.

     "Thread jacking" is a long accepted practice around here. Many times there is valuable information within the jack, sometimes not even audio related, & the thread will eventually get back on the original posters topic. Amy runs a pretty loose forum, thankfully. Keeps it from being sterile.

    Not attacking you just didn't know if you've been here long enough to notice the pattern.

    Re: Bose 901

    I remember my first time hearing 901's..thought they had toilet paper stuffed in them...of course I came from a home w/Khorns and a Heresy center. I just figured Bose was an east Coast thing. In all fairness, speaker taste is like anything else, there are objective measurements, the industrial series (802 III) will do 91 db 1 watt 1 meter, but they are less than impressive, which is a subjective measure. My RF-52's are objectively better than my HII's but now with the HII's out of the picture, I can't wait to get them back and unload the RF-52's (I'm keeping the center RC-52 and RW-10D sub woofer, but my HII's sound better, a subjective measure. Go figure, all this time advocating for the advancement of technology and I am waiting for new crossovers to restore a pair of 22 year old speakers, that were an uncontested part of my divorce. I still want to skipper an SOC-R

    Enough Klipsch products, which only leads to the desire for more.

    How are your 901s, Kevin?  As I recall you finished them very nicely.

     How are they?  --- They are pretty much the same as they were in 1971, with new walnut cabinets.

    Why do you ask?
