I just scored a pair of Bose 901's with the BOSE EQ....for 200 bucks off of craigslist.
Heard them, loved them.
I want to use the 901's for my Home Theater Fronts AND I want a new A/V Receiver.
I want power, power, power AND Clean Movie sound and music and I want to be able to control the volume on the 901's from my Harmony remote..of course.
BOSE Documentation says...
For Home theater use: Must have "PRE AMP OUT" / "MAIN AMP IN"
I have been using a Sony A/V Receiver Sony STR-DE985...ready to replace it. It does not take it when I crank the sound up. So it will be a bedroom Amp with the 201's.
I have been using
Bose 301's mounted on the ceiling as fronts. (Going to be rears)
Bose 201's mounted on the ceiling as rears. (Going in office or Bedroom)
Bose Center Channel as a Center. duh.
JBL Sub. Works fine...Base is acceptable.
Harmony Remote - LOVE it.
I am committed to my Bose Speaker 'Kit' do not slag my speaker preference. I would not expect my woman to be to everybody elses liking and my speakers are much the same. I love em and they are mine.
How do I need to configure this?
What Amp/s under 1500 bucks will give me what I am looking for?
What Amp/s under 1000 bucks will give me what I am looking for?
I will be buying by the end of the week.
Thanks in advance.
