thread for PMC owners


I'd love to hear from other PMC owners.  Twenty series, Twenty5, Fact, etc.

What model do you have?

What amp are you driving it with?

How are the speakers positioned within the room (space from front and side walls, etc.)?

What other brands/models did you audition before settling on PMC?

Any other tips or comments.

I don't have PMCs, but am strongly considering the Fact 12, twenty 26 or maybe the MB2SE as possible replacement for my Rogers Studio 1.  Would love to hear about your experiences!
Wow. I would have expected more responses. PMC three way design with their Volt 3 inch dome is very similar to ATC three ways. The Volt dome is a clone of the ATC mid range but with a less powerful motor and less useable bandwidth than ATC. The Volt dome has an Fs of 400Hz and useable bandwidth from 500-4000 Hz compared to ATC with Fs of 250Hz with useable bandwidth of 400-4000Hz.

Emulation is the sincerest form of flattery. The PMC IB2S sounds great and is used in many studios and by many artists.

My path to the twenty.24's is largely documented here.

Currently being drive by Cronus Magnum II.  They "come alive" a good deal more with the CMII than with the Ayre AX-7 that I previously had on them.


I've only owned the smaller towers but have been on the lookout for IB/MB models just to hear in my own room. PMC was the first speaker I heard back in the day that dramatically changed with the right amp, like night and day difference.
