Short answer: the Coda Audio G515. It ranks #27 of 76 15-inch pa speakers by sound quality, rated 3.7/5, at $2,845; the Electro-Voice MFX-15MC ranks #29, rated 3.6/5, and costs $3,170.67, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
Why pick the Coda Audio G515: A light passive 15 inch PA speaker with high sensitivity and rotatable coverage for flexible full range use. Watch for: The wide 3.8dB reference band means tonal balance is less even than the best 15-inch speakers.
Why pick the Electro-Voice MFX-15MC: A coaxial 15 inch stage monitor with loud peaks and a tight pattern for stage monitoring and short throw fill. Watch for: This is not self-powered: it requires an external amplifier and can run passive or externally bi-amplified, so it is less convenient than every conventional powered cabinet here.
Buy the Coda Audio G515. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Electro-Voice MFX-15MC and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
