Stereo Receiver For Bose 901

I have Bose 901 speakers which require an active equalizer so I need a preamp power amp combo. I have a Marantz 5 channel receiver to drive the center and other channels and this works great with the receiver to drive the 901s as the front speakers. B&H shipped this unit quickly and there were no problems.

Easy to set up and great sound, reminds me of my old stereo system with a receiver and Bose 901s

The best stereo receiver I’ve ever owned! If you want the best, this is it!

This stereo receiver was one of my better online purchases!

I have been listening to Bose since the 70's with their 901 speakers through their Bose Wave technology. Time to update to Bluetooth and put away the CD's and IPOD. Great sound quality as expected. Play it loud.

I already owned the older model of this amp, and i bought this one for my wife's computer. Teamed with a set of older Optimus bookshelf speakers that are great sounding (yes, I'm still kind of an analog guy), the system offers a huge step up from the stock Dell speakers. This hardly taxes the capabilities of the PTA2 of course, and just for fun I hooked this guy up to my Bose 901 Series VI speakers and played some heavy classical music through it. I was amazed at the clarity and bass handling ability. Yes, it clipped when things got really loud, but it was blowing us out of the house by then, and the Bose 901's are notoriously power hungry. I'm not using the Bluetooth, so I can't comment on that feature, but for a small to medium sized system on a budget, you can't go wrong here.

Really impressed by the full sound and the sharp vocals, This speaker truly reproduces the sound of the music, I have not cranked these up yet and nor will I likely, these speakers are ideal for a small venue such as a wedding, or church service, I was most impressed by the dynamics of this speaker at low volumes, and when I turned it up, it was remarkable that the sound was loud and absolutely smooth. When I started as a DJ I started with the BOSE 901's and then the 802's Music evolved and I went to folded horn designs from Klipsh, JBL, and Peavey, as horn speakers got smaller I have been favoring Peavey, and recently I have switched to powered speakers by EV, wanting to expand upon this I ventured back to Bose, and just as the BOSE 901's excited me all those years ago, I find myself once again elated by the sound of the BOSE F! 812!!!

As you know, we now have 4 of the Revolves and there is simply nothing to compare them with. They are in a world unto themselves. Simply the best all the way around! HA. We had 901’s when younger. They are party animals. Much to our chagrin they are no longer available. Dr. Bose would be unhappy. Been happy consumers of the Bose experience for 45 years & excited about new technologies to come. If you need help reviewing a new Bose speaker please keep us in mind. We have 4 keenest ears. Satisfied consumers-Ross Whitlow

Have them connected to Bose 901's. Great sound, good power. I have no complaints. This is my 3rd year with it. Very very low hissing noise. Not noticeable at all.

I use it to connect my tape deck to the stereo receiver.
