[Sir Terrence the Terrible]

if youve been sipping yak urine for 20 years,and the taste doesnt change when you pour it into a different glass, then keep on sipping.

you ought to try a different drink though.

LOL, now this was a good one......

I know that fans of the 901 will defend their choice of speaker till death, and will bury their collective heads in the sand about its drawbacks. But as a person who has measured these speakers, it starts off bad right there, and gets worse after that.

I think the Stereophile review of that speaker pretty much sums it up. It is not a very accurate or impressive speaker, but it does add a pleasing amount of spaciousness to the sound at the expense of timbre and correct tonality. I am not sure I would give up those attributes just to get the spaciousness.
