Anonymous | I have a dilemna that I can't get a decent answer for. I have a pair of Bose Series V 901's with equalizer and a pair of 601's. My dad gave me the 901's and they have hardly been used so please don't suggest new speakers. I want the 2 set of speakers on different floors in my townhome. The problem is finding the right receiver. The Bose help line people tell me I need a receiver that has either a tape monitor or pre amp out/main in. I have been searching and calling all different manufacturers help lines and I can't get a decent response to save my soul. Can anyone help me with a suggestion for a receiver that won't cost me a fortune. Thank you |
