Anyone Using Bose 901 speakers In A Home Theater?
Mitch4t, just go ahead and do it. Your situation is somewhat unique and nobody on this forum can truly guide you. I once owned 901s, liked them and think they would work very well for you, but what do I know? Let us known how it sounds.

What Does Holographic Sound Like?
