PreSonus Eris E5 XT
Building upon the success of the original, the PreSonus Eris E5 XT Two-Way Active 5″ Studio Monitor offers the same robust connectivity options with an updated driver combo and a larger ported enclosure. The Hugh Sarvis designed EBM waveguide delivers a wider and more controlled sweet spot, ideal for group listening and collaboration. The E5 XT utilizes 80W Class-AB biamplification to power the 5″ woven composite woofer and 1″ ultralow-mass, silk-dome high-frequency driver, which combine to deliver up to 102 dB of continuous SPL
The Eris E5 provides a balanced XLR, a balanced ¼” TRS, and an unbalanced RCA line-level input. Dial in the acoustic tuning controls for a flattened frequency response and an accurate mixing contour. The acoustic controls on the rear panel include Level, HPF, LF-Trim, HF-Trim, and Acoustic Space. The PreSonus Eris E5 XT ships with a power cord. It is 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 1/4-inch TRS, and unbalanced RCA line-level inputs. You will have no problem hooking your Eris speakers up to virtually anything.
The Eris XT studio monitors is outfitted with a new EBM (Elliptical Boundary Modeled) wave guide designed by none other than Hugh Sarvis of WorxAudio, the mind behind our award-winning CDL loudspeakers and lauded R-Series monitors. The result? A superior high-frequency response and wider 100-degree horizontal dispersion to create a broader sweet spot. It is ideal for group listening and collaboration‚ while narrow vertical dispersion reduces reflections from your desk. Silk-dome tweeters ensure snappy, accurate transient reproduction.
