Description
The new upgraded Presonus E5XT studio monitor has received so many awesome reviews!
When we are limited by the space in our condo or HDB rooms, it’s great to be able to control the mix environment from our studio monitor. That’s why every E5XT studio monitor is equipped with controls that ensure the flattest response in your mix environment. Acoustic tuning controls allow you to configure the Eris E5 XT perfectly for your room. As a result, you can get Low-cut, Mid, and High controls, as well as 3-way acoustic space tuning. This allows you to easily compensate for the sonic consequences of speaker placement against a wall or in a corner.
The E5XT speakers have a smooth & accurate frequency response; powerful amplification with tons of headroom & acoustic tuning functions that ensure you always get the best sound. The narrow vertical dispersion reduces reflections from your desk. Silk-dome tweeters ensure snappy, accurate transient reproduction. As a result, better sound quality, better mix!
The familiar woven composite low-frequency driver still offers Eris’ signature tight, clear bass; plenty of punch and no flub. Eris E5 XT studio monitors sport a ported enclosure that is larger than that of their predecessors, allowing them to reach down to an astonishing 48 Hz. That’s 10 Hz below previous models—with no subwoofer required!
It’s easy to feed audio to your Eris E5 XT studio monitors from an audio interface, mixer, monitor controller, or almost any other line-level source. Eris E5 XT monitors provide balanced XLR, balanced ¼” TRS, and unbalanced RCA line-level inputs. You’ll have no problem hooking your Eris speakers up to virtually anything.
Suitable for both home recording studios and professional mix engineering, the Eris E5XT studio monitors combine sterling audio quality with the flexible tuning and connectivity you’ve come to expect from PreSonus. It’s Eris, remastered.
