To work passive monitors you'll need to buy a seperate amplifier. Active speakers have an amplifier built in so you don't have to get a seperate one. Also in active monitors the amp is matched to the speakers perfectly.
So, I think you should get active, thats what I'm getting (hopefully eventually) |

The Dynaudio acoustics BM6 are really something
About the BM15, I am not not so sure but M1 supposed to b really good ( and extremely not cheap )

I have just bought the M-Audio BX8 monitors 2 weeks ago, and they are great. I like the way they sound much better than the event ps6 or the tannoy reveal. |

U r confusing it with the BX5 (or the older SP5) the BX8 are 8" and they are really powerfull (u can ask my neighburs ...  )
The monitors also have some parameters U can configure by yourself in order to adjust them exactlly to your working env. (like if they are position in a corner or close to a wall or that your room is small etc...)
