@rickatk wrote: Is there tape, CD or phono RCA inputs (pair red and white)? Those are the imputs you will need to attach the equalizer? I beleive that infor is in the manual. @msg wrote: Yes there is, I was using the tape for my turntable though. Ill switch it to the CD ports. @rickatk wrote: I suggest a larger 16 or 12 gauge “in wall” rated cable. I suggest buying from a local AV store you trust or electronics installation, home theater type outfit. They usually carry new construction grade bulk wire. The wire looks like coaxial cable. Blue, Black or White, round jacket for easy travel and passage. Be absolutely sure the wire is rated for in wall. This is for insurance purposes. The heavier gauge compensates for the longer distance. @msg wrote I was wondering if 12 gauge was something to use? Ill definatley check around, wondered if Amazon had something that would work. @rickatk wrote: Yes, a little on the low end, the 901s like lots of power, they are tanks. Make sure your receiver is set to the correct ohms for the Bose Speakers. I don’t recall what ohms the 901s require. @msg wrote I think from what Ive read that the speakers can handle 300 watts. This is what Im most concerned about, getting the reciever paired properly to not damage anything. I wonder if underpowering with what I have is harmless, just not getting the most bang. @rickatk wrote: RCA patch cables should be fine depending on where you will seat the equalizer(not on top of the receiver). @msg wrote I have some RCA cables around, just wanted to make sure there wasnt a particular brand/type to use. So, would having the Active EQ stacked just above the reciever on the next shelf in the cabinet be ok? @rickatk wrote: You might still be able to order the custom 901 stands from Bose. They usually keep a good supply of legacy gear. You will have to phone directly. @msg wrote: I lucked out and the stands were included in the deal, so I have those already. @rickatk wrote: That is my two cents worth. I am sure others will dial in with some more advice. Enjoy those speakers! @msg wrote I appreciate the reply, thanks!
