BMS 4555 is a powerful 1.5" professional compression driver
that delivers excellent sonic quality in a small package. The
BMS exclusive voice coil technology employs a light weight
Copper Clad Aluminium wire wound inside and outside of the
Kapton™ former to improve the heat dissipation, dramatically
increasing the acoustic output and reliability of the driver
while minimising the power compression. The BMS 4555 – 1.5"
compression driver is designed for a wide variety of appli-
cations including budget projects requiring 1.5” driver of
high sonic quality. The 4555 offers all the benefits of the
patented BMS compression driver in a 1.5” format, but at
much reduced cost.
