Dynaudio BM15A

The Dynaudio BM15A is a powered nearfield studio monitor from the 1990s. Paul White reviewed it in Sound-on-Sound-UK (September 1996, p.242), and that review is about all that's documented. The tweeter is a 28mm Esotech soft dome, crossing over at 1.7kHz to a 240mm bass/mid driver. The claimed top end is 21kHz. Each cabinet weighs roughly 19kg, and the front baffle is held on with ten cap-head bolts. The review said that unlike many nearfield monitors, the BM15A had a smoothly extended bass response that showed what was actually in the low end. It also kept consistent stereo imaging when you moved off-axis. The sound was detailed but non-fatiguing, suited to long sessions in smaller studios without extensive acoustic treatment.
