3.0 out of 5 stars Nice units but!, December 9, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Royal Machines 29297W WES 600 Wireless Stereo Speaker System (Electronics)
My hearing is getting bad and to avoid turning the volume up substantially on my TV set, I wanted to place speakers closer to our sitting stations. Plus, the speakers on the TV leave a lot to be desired anyway.

Initially I was very pleased for ease of hook up, sound etc. However, for the speakers to work as desired, the control volume needed to be turned up to max. volume. In this range the speakers had a distinct background sound (unsure how to describe). I guess this is typical of low wattage speakers when running at max. volume.

They in fact improved the sound volume but the background sound/feedback was more than what we expected. Its not like there not tolerable, to others, this may-not be an issue.

The price is reasonable for the speakers, their size leaves a small footprint and are nice looking for the price. All the necessary accessories/hardware is include to connect (except batteries), each speaker has its own power cord... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Trashoed old AR wireless - Love these!, September 30, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I had purchased a pair of AR wireless speakers and after about a year of inconsistent sound quality and constant static, I finally threw them out. I really wanted a wireless speakers that worked, so I took a gamble on these. They are great. While the distance that they can be away from the transmitter isn't quite as advertised before you get static, it is nothing compared to the AR speakers. I love Pandora and have a Bose companion 3 in our family room. This system allows me to listen in the kitchen as well by adding on to the computer with the Bose system.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great sound with little cost and no wires, November 25, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Royal Machines 29297W WES 600 Wireless Stereo Speaker System (Electronics)
I wanted to use these speakers in my office to play music and white noise that masks traffic sounds on the adjoining busy road. So I bought two pairs of speakers and positioned one speaker on each side of both windows. They work great. Very simple to set up. Good sound quality, provided nothing causes RF interference. I used one transmitter for both sets of speakers. There is an AC line for each speaker and the transmitter. But other than that, there are no cords or wires. Altogether a good experience.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy and they do NOT stick up above the speakers., October 2, 2007
By 
This review is from: Bose WB-3 Wall Brackets (Pair) Wall brackets for Bose 201 and 301 bookshelf speakers (Electronics)
I have these brackets also and they do not stick up above the speaker as one reviewer has stated. If you read and follow the directions included with them then they will not stick up above your speakers. I installed them myself and they are somewhere around the middle of the speaker in the back. There is no way in the world that you can say that they stick up above the speaker unless you did not follow the included directions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect solution, February 21, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Bose WB-3 Wall Brackets (Pair) Wall brackets for Bose 201 and 301 bookshelf speakers (Electronics)
When I ordered the WB-3 brackets, I had no idea how they attached to the speakers or wall. Upon opening the package and reading the simple instructions, I was impressed by the overall design. So far, I only went as far as attaching the brackets to the speakers, a simple job using 2 screws. However, presently being in a foot cast, I've not yet attached the brackets to the wall. That also seems like a very simple task. All screws and hardware for different wall constructions are included.

This review is from: Bose WB-3 Wall Brackets (Pair) Wall brackets for Bose 201 and 301 bookshelf speakers (Electronics)
a little finnicky in how they mate with the speakers (have to drill a hole into a spot in the speaker which I wasn't too thrilled about, but once attached correctly they hold the speakers firmly on the wall. make sure screws are tight into a beam to avoid rattling.

Bose 901 Direct/Reflecting Speaker System - Walnut


Customer Rating :
Rating: 4.4

List Price : $1,398.00 Price : $1,258.00
Bose 901 Direct/Reflecting Speaker System - Walnut

Product Description

The introduction of the revolutionary Bose® 901® speakers in 1968 redefined the phrase high fidelity. For the first time, a speaker was capable of reproducing music with much of the impact, clarity and spaciousness of a live performance. Today's 901 speakers incorporate some 350 enhancements over the acclaimed original. 901 speakers work by reflecting most of the sound off walls and other flat surfaces, instead of aiming all the sound toward you, as conventional speakers do. With Direct/Reflecting® speaker technology, anything you listen tofrom the latest DVD audio to your favorite vintage recordsacquires lifelike realism, because the speakers reproduce the natural concert hall balance of direct and reflected sound. The result is what we call Stereo Everywhere® speaker performancestereo performance that is clear and lifelike everywhere in the room, instead of in just one "sweet spot." You'll experience balanced sound throughout the listening environment, no matter where you sit or stand. Just as you enjoy beautiful music reproduction from these speakers, you can also experience thrilling home theater effects from your home theater components. These speakers are an appropriate choice for use with your surround sound receiver, and can be used in conjunction with other Bose home theater speaker options.


  • Our best speakers for movies and music. Only live sounds better
  • Nine full-range drivers for each speaker
  • Free-standing active equalizer for smoother, more natural balance and clarity

3.0 out of 5 stars Not for everyone, May 28, 2008
This review is from: Bose 901 Direct/Reflecting Speaker System - Walnut (Electronics)
I owned a pair of 901s in the early 80s, they are excellent speakers in term of dynamics and their ability to fill a room with sound. Back then I used Phase Linear equipment to drive them. Phase Linear was designed by Bob Carver and were considered entry level high end at the time. Paired up with the 901s they produce some of my best memories of music. As I grew older and purchased a home with an open floor plan their limitations started to become more apparent. These speakers use reflected sound waves to produce a wide sound stage and excellent imaging, in an open area this effect is loss and you experience what others have called no highs or lows. The equalizer can compensate for some of this but not entirely. My advice is to carefully consider where you will use these speakers and if they fit the environment they can sound spectacular. They are not everyones cup of tea but they just may be yours.

5.0 out of 5 stars They last, October 6, 2005
By 
This review is from: Bose 901 Direct/Reflecting Speaker System - Walnut (Electronics)
I have owned this model of speaker for about twelve years. I would add to the above review that if you have a good equalizer in addition to the active eq, you can make these speakers put out unbelievable bass. Basically, the speakers accurately reproduce the sound on the recording, nothing more or less. They have the capability for lots of bass, as several of my present and former neighbors can attest to.

The 901s do take a lot of power and generally aren't as loud as other speakers would be connected to the same set-up. Loss of stereo separation is only an issue if you are unable to set them up properly. They don't go right in the corner or right next to each other, and they don't sit on the floor. The stands, unless you can build your own or intend to suspend them from the ceiling, are necessary.

If you plan to listen mainly to music and have a powerful component system, these are great speakers. Bose used to make a matching center channel speaker for... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Bose flagship speaker system, December 4, 2007
probably some of the best speakers availiable to purchase, in the past I've owned a pair of 501's and these 901's blow those away. Note that the active EQ included with this set is not compatible with all receivers.
