While I've never heard the 150s, I have listened to some of the models on their lower end (the SCM50 among others). It's interesting that there's such a strong divide between the speakers renowned among audiophiles and those the pros use. I won't speculate on the reasons - but I will say that the ATCs I've heard are simply superb. And furthermore that active monitors are inherently superior to a passive design, both for solid engineering reasons and by audiophile-approved logic.

On the other hand if the designer likes MBLs I reiterate that he should listen to the Linkwitz Orions I mentioned earlier. The characteristics of the sound are not dissimilar, but in fact I think the Orions are superior - and none of the speakers on your list are going to come close to that type of sound.
