My Reference Standard...For The Right Room!

by   sam-pro ,  Jul 9, 2003
Pros: Detailed powerful reproduction of sound. Curved and contoured cabinets. Pleasure to behold visually and sonically!
Cons: Very picky about amplifier characteristics! Sound can change substantially from one room to the next.
The Bottom Line: No speaker is perfect but this one approaches that ever so elusive speaker designer's dream of capturing the "LIVE PERFORMANCE" perhaps better than anything else!
Review: In 1968, I took an old Philco record player and turned it into my first hifi record player by installing a Shure M3D stereo magnetic phono cartridge and then adding a preamp and low powered amp and sealing the entire deal by building these gigantic ...

A Lifetime of Listening Enjoyment

by   Bruguru ,  Jul 15, 2000
Pros: Wonderfully rich sound, stereo from almost any angle
Cons: Not suitable for surround systems
The Bottom Line: I've never heard better.
Review: Let me start out by admitting I own a pair of Bose 901 Series V speakers, not Series VI. Epinions doesn't have a category for these speakers that have served me so well over the years, but that's ok. Many of the observations I am about to make will apply ...

Unsurpassed

by   jkantor ,  Nov 9, 2004
Pros: No other stereo speaker system at any price can compare with it.
Cons: Needs clean, decent power (150W peak per channel minimum) and requires proper room placement.
The Bottom Line: Unsurpassed by systems at any price for reproducing lifelike acoustic music from stereo sources.
Review: If you have the room and the power, there is not speaker system made that can compare with the 901 series for stereo reproduction of acoustic music. (If you listen to heavy metal or heavy rap, you'll probably want front-firing speakers.) Be warned: these ...

The best speakers ever

by   setatenken ,  Nov 27, 2002
Pros: Amazing sound, Relatively simple installation.
Cons: Nothing
The Bottom Line: I am just really happy to have these speakers
Review: These are the best speakers ever. Everything sounds good on it. The highs are clear and bright. The mid-range is clean, and it has sufficient bass.

It does cost a lot, but if you have the money and you want exceptional music reproductions,...

Still an amazing advisari in the tech-world of speakers

by   mistrmn ,  Jun 23, 2003
Pros: Bulletproof power-handling Unbeatable sound for the price
Cons: Set up can be tricky but one is well rewarded by doing it right.
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this unique set up only to those who have a large room. Having set the system up properly, you cannot get better sound for the price.

Another converted Bose fan

by   mutare23 ,  Sep 9, 2002
Pros: Full sound. Good value. Bullet proof
Cons: Set up is critical
The Bottom Line: Fantastic speakers, but make sure you set them up properly. If you do this the thrill from their performance will last for years and years with awesome factory support.
Review: For many years I had listened to people advance the highs and the lows of Bose equipment. A friend has had one of the earlier sets of 901s seemingly forever and I found that I always used these as the bench mark for anything that I listened to from the...

Bose Stands Behind their Products

by   DGodesky ,  Mar 27, 2001
Pros: Long lasting, long term support; top quality sound; you can't break them.
Cons: High price.
The Bottom Line: Bose is a company that will support you for the rest of your life; sound isn't everything when you are investing this much in speakers!
Review: There is not much more to say about 901s that others have not already offered. These speakers are top end, top notch speakers in every way. What you may not know is how well Bose stands behind their products. Our experience has proven that buying 901s...

Pros: Superb sound for the enthusiast.
Cons: None.
The Bottom Line: Nothing sounds better at this price. A must-have!
Review: After several days of careful reconsideration, I settled on my perennial favorite speakers, the Bose 901 Series VI system. There is a tremendous amount of controversy surrounding these speakers, with a very wide range of opinions as to their actual ...
