[net.audio] BOSE 901

I've only listened to 901s for a few minutes, they are "very interesting".
How good they are for serious listening I shall leave to those who
have listened to them more than I have.

However... The PA speakers in the 901-shaped cabinet are total
and absolute garbage!!!  I suffered through these during a couple
of Chicagofests.  Talk about distortion! <gag>  Radio Sluck AM
radios sound fantastic compared to these disasters.

Sure they get loud.  Big deal.  The sirens Tek uses for fire alarms
are loud (approx 5.6 x 10^19 dB) too.  And if I never hear those
things again it'll be too soon too.  Too bad the sirens don't blow up
as easily as the Bose do. :-(
