B.M.C. PureVox
An Advanced Speaker System by B.M.C. Audio
The PureVox is a balanced build speaker with bipolar architecture and it is unique in a number of ways.
The PureVox delivers an amazingly realistic sound-stage which isn’t possible utilizing conventional speaker concepts. This is because the speaker doesn’t seem to be the source of the music but instead the music is just semmst to be "in" the room. Every musician on this virtual stage can be pinpointed as if one were at a real event.

The PureVox also delivers more dynamics and power than expected given the size of the speaker.
A deep and defined bass, a perfect tonal balance and transparency and reproduction of details, puts the PureVox into the range of top high end speakers.
Design & Function
Our repeatedly awarded industrial design is also reflected in the PureVox: A tasteful eye-catcher with high grade materials and build quality, which combines perfectly acoustical and design requirements.
The PureVox is available in 2 colors:
- B.M.C. Silver - cool and modern
- Blue Titanium - slightly bluish Titanium color
Bipolar Speaker
Most conventional speakers have good depth of image in the
center of the sound-stage, but much less so at the sides.
Responsible for this lack of realism are the distorted frequency responses outside of the speaker axis. By walking around any speaker it is easy to hear how the sound balance changes.
The PureVox’s quasi-bi-polar design dramatically improves the
sound-stage’s depth impression at the sides, making the soundstage more complete and realistic.

Multi-Layer Cabinet
The body of the PureVox’s cabinet is made of a single piece of extruded aluminum, with a varying thickness to reduce internal resonances. Several inside layers of a molten-in damping material and stabilization bars at the remaining resonance points make the cabinet perfectly quiet.
Its stiffness and the low internal energy loss are far better than any wooden cabinet construction.

The PureVox is also free of the effects of humidity and aging, and 27.2 kg (60lbs) per speaker is a statement of build quality.
The cabinet is sealed, eliminating the bass-reflex resonance that can sound like blowing air into an empty bottle. The power of the drivers and the cabinet’s low energy loss more than compensate for any loss of oomph in the sound.
Drivers by B.M.C. Audio
The PureVox is a quasi-balanced speaker, which means the same driver set is on the front as is on the 45-degree angled rear of the top.
This includes two 6.9-inch Kevlar/fiberglass bass/midrange drivers in a quasi-bipolar configuration.
The PureVox’s configuration also includes two powerful AMT tweeters, with strong motor / weight relation for superb acceleration and a high sound-pressure capability without compression effects.
Terminals & Adjustment
Beside the traditional binding posts the PureVox also offers a
professional SpeakON terminal, which is safe, reliable and convenient to use. Speaker cables with a SpeakON plug are also available from B.M.C.

A small switch allows slight variations of the sound balance:
To top: It adds a little “air” for rather damped rooms or “darker” sounding electronics.
To bottom: It adds a little more “warmth” for low damped rooms or rather “cool” sounding electronics.
