Presonus ERIS E5XT 5.25" Studio Monitor
Our best-selling studio monitors just got better.
With their smooth, accurate frequency response;
powerful amplification with tons of headroom; and acoustic tuning
functions that ensure you always get the best sound... it's no wonder
that the original Eris
®-series studio monitors have been a
runaway hit since their introduction. The Eris E5 XT is a substantial
update to a lauded classic. Deeper lows and a wider, more controlled
sweet spot (thanks to its new EBM wave guide design) mean that our
best-selling studio monitors just got even better.
Studio speakers with a wide sweet spot.
We outfitted the Eris XT studio monitors 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’s ideal for group listening and
collaboration—while narrow vertical dispersion reduces reflections from
your desk. Silk-dome tweeters ensure snappy, accurate transient
reproduction.
Lows that go lower.
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!
Set up your studio monitors for your room.
We know modern recording studios can be anywhere from
a spare bedroom to a multi-million dollar facility; that's why every
studio monitor we make 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—you get
Low-cut, Mid, and High controls, as well as 3-way acoustic space tuning
that allows you to easily compensate for the sonic consequences of
speaker placement against a wall or in a corner.
Studio monitor connections.
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.
