I'm using the BM15's (passives with a Hafler P3000 amp). They are a great monitor. They are VERY picky about placement. Be prepared to spend several hours tweeking their location. Also - they are run-in dependent. They advise 100 hours of run in before real use. I would say that 24-48 hours of straight pink noise at 85-90dB should suffice.
All that being said - they are excellent for near or mid-field monitoring. Perhaps the best sounding speakers in anywhere near their price range.

I will add that they are the most non-fatiguing monitors I've sat in front of. Your ears don't bleed at the end of a session unlike 1031's.
I'm sure you'll love them.....I do.
