Hello and "THANKS IN ADVANCE"
baylinor ... do they still make the 901s No, Bose stopped making them a few years ago. The 901s had a long run, though, even if many audiophiles didn't approve. I think @russ69 is correct has to how to connect both the 901s and 601s at the sa... 
Hello and "THANKS IN ADVANCE"
Unlike the Bose 901, I'm pretty sure the Bose 601 doesn't require an EQ.

LOUDEST Concert and Tinnitus
The Who. I always wore earplugs to rock concerts even though by buddies often chided me for it. (They're half-deaf now, or worse.)  But the earplugs weren't sufficient with the Who, so I actually had to walk out and miss the show. Not a joke.  
Pioneer PL630- upgrading the phono cable?
Having low phono cable capacitance is important with MM cartridges, but it's not likely to be an issue with MC, unless perhaps you're using some odd cable. As for RF, you may get better results by using a shielded cable, but on the other hand you ... 
How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is?
simao Why does Tidal Master quality streaming through my Oppo/Schiit combo sound so much better than playing a CD through the same combo? I'm talking of identical releases of CD and streaming selection.  They're not identical if the stream has...

Cartridge position on headshell . . .

Why Are We Breaking Our Brains?
mceljo I could track down someone that could recommend the most similar inexpensive wine and see if I could get my sister to pour him a glass of it on the down low and see if he would recognize that something was off. That would be a biased te... 
Is Imaging Worth Chasing?
dynamiclinearity Cleeds, it wasn't the Absolute Sound that started subjective reviews and made low distortion less relevant. It was Gordon Holt in the 50s in a magazine now defunct I can't recall. You are right, of course, and I never said oth... 
How does a speaker blow out?
chenaudiolab The maximum power a speaker can handle is an indicator of the full sound spectrum. When the sound is concentrated in only a narrow section of the frequency spectrum, a few watts of electrical power can destroy the driver. No, the ... 
Investigating if ultrasound is harming LPs
mahler123 How many times does one clean a given record this way?  I thought ultrasound was used once, and after only again if something catastrophic happened, like if the lp was buried in a mudslide in Turkey ... I have found that one clea... 
Investigating if ultrasound is harming LPs
lewm Cleeds, if you want to know whether your US RCM can damage your LPs, then you have to design an experiment to answer THAT question on the physical level. I shared my listening experience and have conducted experiments to my satisfaction. ... 
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
adasdad I think that any music lover’s solution to hearing their favorite songs should be easy, and seamlessly, integrated into their own physical environment.  Not much in high end audio is easy and seamless. Why should streaming be any diffe...
