BMD740/750 Series 2 Anyone?

If the series 2 are equal or better than the originals then they should be adequate for most situations. I think that they are better than the 1”450s, a pair of which I have sitting on a shelf. Given that the CP850Nd is £426 compared to the BMD 750’s £82, one would expect the former to be better.

I’ve got a couple of cabs with the originals in and with the proviso that I don’t push them hard the sound is not bad. Yes the one inch drivers are smoother at the top end, but it is difficult to make a direct comparison because I can’t use the same horn and 1” drivers generally sound equal or better than 2” drivers at the top end anyway.

No one yet has ever complained or asked why I use them in preference to my other cabinets because they don’t sound as good.

The comparison drivers in my other cabs are:

B&C 250, RCF N-450 and the BMS 4524

The datasheet looks very good, titanium diaphragm.

It suggests the BMD 750-2 has "flatter" response than the mighty B&C DE85.

Previously was Void/ProAudioParts, now its BlueAran. As far as I am aware the series 2 BM-D750/740 are the cheapest in their class by a mile and for the money are frankly excellent, the rest of the new comp driver range are proving to be just as good. Anyone wanting quantity or trade prices just needs to know who to speak to... (...ie PM me)

That quote was from a time when PAP just disappeared of the map.

Yes , I can confirm After they have been taken over bu Harman they have been a MASSIVE Pain in the arse to deal with.

We payed in advance and two months later they haven't been able to find the money in their bank accounts. This is purely their stupidity because thay have given us a Brasilian Bank account and some idiot in the accounting department keept looking in the US  bank account , after we already sent them a few "happy" e-mails in which we kept telling them that the account they gave us was in BRASILIA.

Idiots.
