Bose 901's in an acoustically treated room?

Curious - has anyone tried the 901's in an acoustically treated room?  If so, your thoughts?

I've thought about trying out my 901's in my music room, but since it's got a bunch of GIK acoustic treatment throughout, I've never done it.  I think the Bose needs a more reflective set of walls behind and to the sides.  

But I think I'm going to give it a try soon and just wanted to see if anyone else has done the same (and are willing to admit to it publicly). 

Cheers.

I heard them a/b'd against the Large Advents I was auditioning back in the late 70's. yes, the Bose sounded you more with music at high volumes. But on normal listening levels the Original Large Advents sound a lot better.

Now some clarification to the surrounding with music. It did so because of the room reflections so it wasn't an accurate sound stage. it was more akin to Quadraphonic sound with sound bouncing around. but instead of 4 speakers it would do so with 2.
