Der originale BOSE 901 stellte bei seiner Einführung 1968 die HiFi-Welt auf den Kopf: eine Sensation! Die Fachwelt war einstimmig begeistert. Der Nachhall dieses Ausbruches trifft uns noch heute: es gibt keinen vergleichbaren direkt + indirekt abstrahlenden Lautsprecher. Der 901 hatte ein Holzgehäuse, Material Spanplatte und Multiplex. Alle neun Driver teilten sich ein geschlossenes Gehäuse.
 
  
Die ersten Driver hatten einfache quadratische Magnete. Sie wurden aber bald durch größere, runde abgelöst, die sich bis zum Ende der Bauzeit der Serie II hielten. Die Membranen waren graugrün. Der Equalizer hatte einen Netzschalter. Der 901 war in den Versionen "Ebony", "Walnuss" und "Standard" erhältlich. Die Serie I erkennt man am fehlenden BOSE Logo auf der Vorderseite des Lautsprechers.

Description[edit]

  • The original BOSE 901 turned the hi-fi world on its head when it was introduced in 1968: a sensation! The professional world was unanimously enthusiastic. The reverberations of this outburst still affect us today: there is no comparable direct + indirect radiating loudspeaker.
  • The first drivers had simple square magnets. But they were soon replaced by larger, round ones, which lasted until the end of the Series II's construction. The diaphragms were grey-green.
  • The speakers include an equalizer with a power switch.
  • Series I can be identified by the lack of a BOSE logo on the front of the speaker. <
  • The type belongs today (August 2016) in the USA still to the Bose program.
  • The 901 was further developed first to the 901 Series II, meanwhile (2015) to the state "901 Series VI", see also link hifimuseum.de.
