[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 130784, member: 126"] Re: Opinions on BOSE 802 Series II (2) PROFESSIONAL LOUDSPEAKER ??!! My home hifi speakers back in the '70s were a DIY scaled up version of the 901s with 16 drivers per box. They got suitably loud, but no amount of HF EQ was going to make mid-range drivers act like tweeters. If you had enough power amp headroom the bass (using EQ) was OK for living room duty, but I ended up adding real tweeters to get the rest of the music. JR [edit] the Bose drivers may have had slightly better top end than the stock CTS drivers I used, but at the end of the day they are not tweeters. [/edit] [/QUOTE]
