Description

The PMC15 is a powerful large-format active reference monitor designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-end recording, mixing, and mastering environments. Drawing from the legendary BB5 and BB6 heritage, which has been a staple in world-class studios for over three decades, the PMC15 redefines accuracy, scale, and trust in professional monitoring. With its three-way Advanced Transmission Line (ATL™) design and a new in-house developed 15-inch bass driver-the largest PMC has ever built-it delivers exceptional low-frequency extension, ultra-low distortion, and effortless dynamics. This monitor is built for engineers who require absolute clarity and confidence in every sonic decision.

At the heart of the PMC15 is the custom-built Master36 amplifier system, providing 800W each to the high- and mid-frequency drivers and a robust 2000W to the low-frequency driver. It integrates digital crossovers, room alignment EQ, and protection systems via the SoundAlign2 interface over standard LAN. The PMC15 shares its high-frequency and midrange architecture with the acclaimed PMC10 and PMC12, including a 34mm hand-built soft-dome tweeter and the latest PMC75v3 midrange driver, enhanced by the n-compass™ waveguide for wide, smooth dispersion. Designed for both stereo and immersive setups, it supports vertical and horizontal orientations and can expand into a twin-cabinet XBD configuration or integrate with PMC15 SUB systems for additional scale and headroom.
