Bose 901 VI flat?


I purchased a pair of Bose 901 VI speakers recently and a new Sony STRDH190 receiver.  I have wanted these speakers for years and finally got them.  Problem is, they sound flat and weaker than expected.  I adjusted the bass and treble to my liking but that only helped a little.  I have the Bose EQ that came with the speakers but i'm not using it due to new receiver technology.  Am i doing something wrong? I know these are great speakers with a great history.

I owned a few pairs of them just couldn't stand them Bose no highs no lows.

I'll stick with my JBL 4311s and my L150s

A few pairs? You must be a slow learner.

I bought a pair for a hundred bucks at a flea market where a parrot chewed up one of the grills I think the other pairs given to me I just bought them to resell them I only listen to them to test them. A fast learner who's made a lot of money in the audio business
