The Eris E5 XT by PreSonus is a substantial update to a lauded classic. The Eris XT studio monitors have been outfitted with a new EBM (Elliptical Boundary Modeled) wave guide, resulting in a superior high-frequency response and wider 100-degree horizontal dispersion to create a broader sweet spot ideal for group listening and collaboration. Suitable for both home recording studios and professional mix engineering, the Eris XT studio monitors combine sterling audio quality with flexible tuning and connectivity.
Every Eris-series studio monitor utilizes a woven composite, low-frequency driver. With three different types of audio inputs, it’s easy to feed audio to your Eris monitors from a mixer, an interface, a media player, or almost any other line-level source. Eris-series studio monitors are used worldwide by audio engineers who need to hear every detail of their recordings.
