PMC Prodigy 5
The Prodigy 5 is a compact yet high-performance floorstanding speaker from PMC that brings studio-monitor accuracy into the home. Thanks to its advanced transmission-line design and wide-dispersion technology, it delivers clean, natural vocals, an open treble, and impressive bass control — all from a surprisingly modest cabinet footprint.
PMC Prodigy 5 Floorstanding speaker
- Brings studio-grade sound into the home with PMC’s pro-audio heritage.
- Slender floorstanding design takes up little more space than a bookshelf speaker on stands.
- Wide dispersion “sweet-spot” – open treble, transparent vocals, natural instrumentation.
- Uses PMC’s Advanced Transmission Line (ATL™) bass-loading and Laminair™ vents for deep, controlled bass and reduced port noise.
- Room-friendly and placement-flexible: designed to perform well in a variety of listening spaces.
- Easy to drive – works with quality amplifiers from modest power upwards, yet scales with better electronics.
- Stylish finish (Silk Black) and minimal footprint ensure it fits modern interiors without dominating the space.
- Excellent value proposition: the performance punches above what the size and price might suggest.

I spent a very enjoyable time revisiting an old favourite in Fila Brazilia’sLuck Be a Weirdo Tonight, a synth based British band who made some particularly nice sounding albums. Here the prodigy5s dug down surprisingly deep into the bass and delivered the pacy percussion and squelchy bass line of Van Allen’s Belt, surprising me (again) with just how low they could go. Contrasting this with the performance from a bigger yet slightly less expensive alternative made it clear that the prodigy5s are very clean and have impressive transparency, both of which make the music more emotionally powerful.

One of the keys to our legendary natural, uncoloured sound is our Advanced Transmission Line (ATL) bass-loading. ATL uses energy generated by the bass unit in a much more intelligent and efficient way than speaker designs based on ported or sealed boxes. Our Laminair airflow technology further enhances ATL and improves definition, timing and eradicates unwanted air noise.
