The BB5 is the largest in the range, featuring a striking 15” Radial™ bass unit that complements PMC’s ATL™ (Advanced Transmission Line) bass-loading principle. This allows the speaker to handle music with the widest dynamic range with absolute ease and confidence. Despite its size and power, the BB5 isn’t just designed for the loudest works; it reproduces subtle acoustic material with all the dexterity and delicacy of a compact design.

PMC’s active designs take loudspeakers to another level; the amplification is precisely tailored to the specific designs and power requirements of the speaker, and is directly coupled to the drive units for superior control and a more efficient transfer of energy. This results in increased headroom and resolution, improved transient performance, and a life-like, natural-sounding, and more powerful speaker.

Additionally, active systems can be adjusted to suit customer taste and the individual listening environment by means of frequency controls. To guarantee optimum performance in situ, they are always tuned by our factory-trained installation engineers.
