Please, can anybody compare these 2 in terms of :

(a) speed
(b) control
(c)  feel
(d) dwell time
 
What I know only is that BT555 is varnished.
 
In addition, is Avalox P500 = Nittaku Runlox-5 ???
 
Thank you very much.

Haven't seen the BT555, but I can compare to the BT550.

The BT550 is similar speed to p500 although rated a little slower. Control is very good on both blades. Feel on the P500 is a little harder than on the BT550, but is fairly soft on both. Dwell time is quite high, making them excellent looping blades.

I believe that all have a light coat of varnish. Yes the p500 looks pretty much identical structure to the runlox-5.

@ Haggisv, thank you.

From your comment, it seems that BT555 is faster than P500 then, if P=500 is about the same speed as BT500.

One difference between the P500 and BT555 are the ayous and limba top plies respectively.
