Those be the ones. They sounded just like little bitty speakers to me.


Well, I am not promoting Bose by any means but if properly set up and
powered, the old Bose 901s could sound very good, IMO. The problem, I
think, is not too many people understand the concept of placement or the
power requirements. They also fell out of favor because of premature
failures of the foam surrounds holding the speakers in the early series.

901s are similar to electrostatics in the sense that they are very sensitive
to placement. 8 of the 9 speakers are facing the rear wall.

Did you say you had electrostatics? If so, you must be familiar with the
critical placement criteria.
