Question NAD d3020 for Bose 901 VI

[oscillate.wildly]

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for since it's been a while since I upgraded my setup and I'm a little rusty on the technical side. I'm wanting to upgrade my speakers from Q Acoustic 2020i. I have a Technics SL-1210 MK 2 with an Ortofon 2M Red. I listen mainly to rock, indie, classical, and singer-songwriter. I like a vintage sound - before I moved to the US I had a Thorens TD 125 with SME and Shure cartridge, can't remember which, maybe V15? I still have it stranded in the UK 🙁

I would love a more 'immersive' experience, like the music is filling the room (which is 10 x 11 ft).

There is a pair of Bose 901 V1's with the eq and stands near me for $600. I understand these are very polarizing speakers, but it looks like they would be a good option. I'll be adding an external input selector to deal with the tape loop issue e.g. https://a.co/d/5Pc8K6D

I'm reading mixed answers for whether my amp can drive these. Can anyone advise? I listen relatively loud but not LOUD. I am reading mixed things so thought why not ask strangers on the internet 🙂
