Not bad to look at either with the dual rows of led's. Just be careful moving it as those exposed heat sinks would slice your hand open
The big Bose power amplifiers were very serious and capable pieces of hardware indeed.

I recall experiencing a pair of 901s at high volume in off-base housing in England back in the early 1980s when I was a teenager. They left an impression.

Dave R.I.P. had the Bose 901 continental speakers. I believe the cabinet was different compared to the regular 901's. He OF COURSE hot rodded the snot out of the EQ module. Dave built a good career out of working on those, he knew his stuff.I remember Dave @westmassguy was particularly fond of his 901s. He had some kind of special edition, though I don't recall the specific model.

If it can still move under its own propulsion in that condition, it just might be the world’s toughest automobile ever.
That would actually be the Toyota Hilux that Top Gear attempted to destroy, several times before success.

And they (901s) didn’t image well in the vintage sense of the term either, when I first heard them decades ago.
