The PMC15 is a three‑way ATL™ active reference monitor delivering unrivalled accuracy, scale and confidence for demanding professional studios. Design and Build The cabinet measures 1040 mm × 432 mm × 790 mm and weighs 97 kg per unit, providing a solid platform that minimises vibration and enhances acoustic integrity. Its aluminium chassis houses a double‑stacked magnet assembly and a three‑layer, 3‑inch voice‑coil bass driver, the largest ever created by PMC, ensuring immense power handling and ultra‑low distortion. Driver Configuration The high‑frequency section employs PMC’s hand‑built 34 mm soft‑dome tweeter, while the midrange uses the acclaimed PMC75v3 dome coupled with the proprietary n‑compass™ dual‑profile waveguide. This combination guarantees smooth, wide dispersion through the crossover region and a stable, precisely focused soundstage across an expansive listening area. The new 15‑inch bass driver extends low‑frequency response, delivering a vast bandwidth that meets the rigours of modern large‑format monitoring. Amplification and Power Each cabinet integrates PMC’s bespoke Master36 rack‑mount DPS/amplifier system, supplying 800 W to the tweeter and midrange and a formidable 2000 W to the bass driver. Precision digital crossovers protect excursion limits and preserve transparency, while the system handles analogue and digital inputs up to 192 kHz. Digital Integration Standard LAN connectivity enables configuration via PMC’s SoundAlign2 browser‑based interface, allowing engineers to apply full‑DSP room‑alignment EQ, manage digital crossovers and fine‑tune the monitor to the acoustic environment with ease. Scalability and Immersive Monitoring The PMC15 scales effortlessly for stereo or immersive setups. Engineers can expand to a twin‑cabinet XBD configuration, increasing system scale and low‑frequency headroom without compromising coherence. Why Choose PMC15 Unmatched low‑frequency authority – the 15‑inch driver and 2000 W LF amp deliver depth that translates mix decisions accurately. Transparent sound reproduction – low distortion across the spectrum ensures what you hear is exactly what was recorded. Flexible integration – LAN‑controlled SoundAlign2 and 192 kHz‑capable inputs fit any modern studio workflow. Future‑proof scalability – twin‑cabinet XBD option grows with your monitoring needs, from stereo to immersive formats. Heritage of reliability – builds on the BB5/6 lineage, a benchmark for over 35 years in elite recording environments.
