Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: ToneAudio Magazine REVIEW on the BOSE 901's will be coming out this Saturday!

I don't think we will find out how some modified 901's sound like I'm been raving about on these forums.

I told Jeff about these mods I did to my 901's and he thinks these mods will not improve anything to these speakers and he is not going to try any of these mods so the review is only on "stock" 901's only and they sound nothing like my modified 901's, so maybe someone on these forums will try these mods and let us all know what they think about them.

These 901's have grilles that are made out of fiberglass and these 901's have a much more direct sound to them and they are way less colored after you remove all four grilles.

On the backside of these 901's they are a lot plastic parts sticking out, the ports and other plastic parts and these plastic parts colors the sound and after you covering all these plastic parts with teflon tape you don't hear this anymore.

Another thing I tried was using some RCA to XLR Adapters so I could use my CD Balance inputs on my Yamaha a-s2000 integrated amp. I have my Bose equalizer between my CD player and my Yamaha integrated amp's CD Balance inputs. After adding these adapters my modified 901's really opened up big time and they really SING now !
