When the subject of where the speaker is made came up, Ken replied, “From across the world. It’s hand-assembled in the US, but we source components from China, Serbia, Indonesia, and Taiwan. When you buy our speaker, you’re supporting the GDP of five countries.”

The BMR’s sensitivity is rated at 86.5dB/2.83V/m, a figure Ken said was conservative; he puts it closer to 88, 89dB; we’ll see what JA’s measurements show. As for the speaker’s lowish 4 ohm impedance, Ken said it’s very linear and smooth and shouldn’t present a difficult load to the amplifier. He suggested a minimum power requirement of between 40 to 60Wpc, adding, “we know people who use 300B amps with it and are happy, so it really depends on how far your listening distance is and how loud you play your music.”
