disco2k3 · 29th November 2005

I've used BM15p with a Hafler P4000 for the last three years. That combination offers plenty of juice. I've never compared them to another speaker in my room, but I can say that they have worked very well for me. I've found that the bass is a bit tubby and it takes some getting used to, in a funny way it helps me get the bass in my mixes tight. The highs don't seem fatiguing to me, but I never really monitor very loud, they are definitely less fatiguing than Mackies. I feel that they accentuate harsh treble, in a way thats revealing not annoying. There seems to be something a little funny happening at the crossover, but its never been a problem. They may not be the most linear monitors, but I personally like the way they sound and have been getting good results after I "learned" them. Like others said, you should have a well treated room to use 15s, especially in the low mid/bass department.
