I don't like the Speed Passion V3.0's built in connectors, but otherwise in a Bmax they are a better choice than an X12. They aren't as aggressive (which I'd say is a good thing, but others might not) and critically they run a lot cooler.
X12's can take the heat, but they need to be able to, as they get very hot. Given that Bmaxes make pretty good ovens anyway, I'd prefer a cooler motor.

In a Bmax, Novaks just can't take the heat, LRP's are just too hot. Speed Passions can hack it, but they have daft connectors that sometimes come out. The best motor I've had in mine was an Orion. They seem a little out of fashion, but it didn't get too hot and coped well, whilst being a teeny bit quicker than the Speed Passion I replaced it with.
