I just picked up some BM5A's and I love them. I noticed the MC15, but couldn't quite figure out why it was $300 more. There's not nearly as much information about the MC15 online. Does it have a centralized volume control that the BM5A's don't? Or is the price difference due to the smaller size?
The MC15 have a (simple) RCA inputs, which are more of a traditional cables for home audio, instead of a XLR inputs which are professional/studio based inputs.
When i had my speakers, i had the Chord iChord. Very fast sound, if at the cost of bass, but good cable all the same;

But the other difference if my memory serves me right, is the overall specs. The BM5A hits a little lower, a little deeper and its a bit bigger.
I do miss my MC15, but the radiator on my car went at 147,000 miles and i had to replace it. I would say that I would buy a pair of Dynaudio's again, however i'm going into car audio and i'm learning about acoustics etc for my business. So i've switched from headphones, my site fakeheadphones.com (but not giving it up) and I'm going into the car audio scene, and I know the UK distributor for Dynaudio car speakers. In the car audio world Dynaudio are seen as near unbeatable in terms of performance and SQ (Sound Quality) .. SQ being a car audio term.
However I'm learning from one of the best car audio engineers, and i've dedicated a site to him (peteybox.com), and when he can do this with a 4" speaker (see link below) I'm struggling to justify why i would need to buy a pair of speakers again. But if i had to, it would be Dynaudio!
Headphones on!! Listen to the sound when 'SuperSteve' is talking.
