PreSonus Eris Studio 5 5.25-inch 2-Way Active Studio Monitors with EBM Waveguide

I've been using these PreSonus Eris Studio 5 monitors for a while now, and they've been an excellent addition to my setup. The audio quality is incredibly clear, with crisp highs, detailed mids, and clean, controlled bass that lets you hear every part of the mix without sounding muddy. Everything sounds well-balanced, whether I'm listening to music, editing audio, gaming, or watching videos. One thing I really appreciated was how easy they were to set up with my subwoofer. The connections were straightforward, and I had everything running in just a few minutes without needing to troubleshoot or make major adjustments. Once everything was connected, the monitors blended seamlessly with the sub and produced a full, rich sound throughout the room. The build quality also feels very solid, and they look great on my desk without taking up too much space. Even after using them for extended periods, the sound remains consistent and enjoyable without causing listening fatigue. For the price, I think these monitors offer fantastic performance and are a great investment for anyone looking for accurate, high-quality sound. I would definitely recommend them to anyone building a home studio or simply wanting a significant upgrade over regular computer speakers.

Ordered two of these to use as rear channels in a multi (15) channel setup for my virtual pipe organ. They're about 20' from the organ console and used for the reverb or ambience channels, so I'm not listening to them as critically as one might if they were being used in a typical near-field installation. Nevertheless, they sound fine and serve the intended purpose. When I'm not playing the organ, I often stream Sirius XM through the organ's audio, and they also sound fine there as well. One issue, not directly related to the speakers is that one of the speakers was used. The package was not factory sealed, the documentation was missing (no big deal) and the rubber feet had been affixed. This was clearly Amazon's fault, as they tried to obscure the original purchaser's shipping label with two big black "Amazon" labels. Since I paid for a new unit, I expected a factory sealed unit, not a potentially defective return. To their credit though, Amazon sent me a new speaker and a prepaid shipping label to return the used one. A bit of an inconvenience, but I'm not going to get all bent up over it. Also, unlike someone else's review, the speakers came packaged in an outer box. There was no padding between the inner and outer boxes, but I suppose it adds a little bit of protection, nonetheless. I think the Styrofoam packaging in the inner box is sufficient to protect against most types of shipping damage, although I really hate that they use Styrofoam. All in all, I think these are a good value for the money.

Overall and in general, these are absolutely fantastic monitors. However, the system I bought them for has a terrible hum issue with them, likely due to my Nvidia GPU. Some programs and especially games were absolutely unbearable and had to be used with all of the audio turned off. That hum was easily handled by adding a cheap Pyle hum eliminator, which is only $20 here on Amazon at the time of this writing. My final setup meant running the interface to the hum eliminator, then to the sub, then to the monitors. Your system may be different. I think the price was a little high, but obviously not enough to stop me. In the end, it's still worth it. These really do sound amazing for every purpose from casual listening to final mixing, but keep in mind that they are not meant to be used as a whole-area set of speakers. They sound best from very specific distances and angles, but that also doesn't stop me for blasting them for a single, large room. They don't take up too much space, but they are also not small. For desktops, you'll want at least 4 feet across for an average video monitor and these to sit together. While these are great speakers that perform exactly as intended, keep in mind that they do have proper and improper ways to be set up, and your results can vary greatly depending on your setup and expectations. The sound is clear and clean. If you've never listened to your favorite songs through a professional monitor or headphones before, you'll often be blown away at the music's hidden sounds you never heard before, even after decades. These are no different and will absolutely change how you hear things.

The is my first use of reference monitors with my Studio One set up. Installation is easy. I haven't really had a chance to work with them in depth but I am excited to get to it. One critique that caught me off guard but can be worked around. If you plan to use these on a book shelf be aware that the power plug sticks straight out of the back side and I recommend 90 degree input TRS cables. A shelf is not the ideal environment for proper set up I concede. ( in my case they are on a top shelf of my desk which only sticks up about a inch or so but the power plug is in they way. The desk itself is at least a foot forward of the wall behind it.) I have ordered some isolation pads for underneath which will solve the issue but just wanted to let others know. A 90 degree connection for the power cord would be a good change not to be picky. I have also purchased a Atom, a Faderport and previously owned a Audiobox 44vsl just replaced with the new Quantum ES4 interface. I have used Studio One Artist DAW since version 2 (not that I am any good at it but it's a hobby for me.) What I want to mention is the EASE OF INTEGRATION with Presonus devices. Everything I have has been mostly plug and play. My issues have usually always been with the dummy holding the plug if you know what I mean. ;-) Great sound and I look forward to getting the most out of them.

Despite the fact that the product title is: “PreSonus Eris Studio 5 5.25-inch 2-Way Active Studio Monitors with EBM Waveguide” It is in fact just ONE monitor, not monitorS. I did not check “what’s in the box” before I ordered. My mistake. :-( I haven’t tried the product, but it seems to be well built and I’m sure it works fine.

Excellent speakers for the money. You'll need to adjust the audio settings in the speaker's rear to achieve the sound you desire. Every room is different, so the default settings might not satisfy your ears. The good news is that you can adjust the sound.

Por el precio, tiene bien definido el audio

Excelente producto

La PreSonus Eris Studio 4 de segunda generación se presenta como una opción excepcional para entusiastas del audio que buscan una experiencia sonora de alta fidelidad, ya sea para la producción musical, el entretenimiento multimedia o simplemente para disfrutar de una calidad de sonido superior en el escritorio. Este modelo resalta por su capacidad para ofrecer un sonido detallado y una representación precisa de las frecuencias, característica que lo convierte en un referente dentro de su categoría (sobre todo por su tamaño). Uno de los aspectos más destacados de estas bocinas es su excelente calidad de sonido. La respuesta en frecuencia es equilibrada y detallada en todo el espectro, lo que garantiza que tanto las bajas como las altas frecuencias se reproduzcan con claridad y sin distorsión. Esto se traduce en una experiencia auditiva rica y envolvente, ideal para los aficionados a la música que buscan captar cada matiz de sus pistas favoritas. La ausencia de ruido estático o zumbidos, cuando se conectan a través de cables TRS a una interfaz de audio, es otra de las cualidades que distinguen a las PreSonus Eris Studio 4; yo particularmente la tengo conectada a una Scarlett Solo 4. La performance en solitario de estas bocinas es sobresaliente, demostrando una habilidad excepcional para reproducir las respuestas en todas las frecuencias de manera precisa (aunque si quieres los bajos más profundos, definitivamente tendrás que añadir un subwoofer). Además, su capacidad para ofrecer una escena sonora amplia y una excelente separación instrumental mejora significativamente la experiencia de escucha, haciendo que cada instrumento y voz se ubique de manera clara y distinta dentro del espacio sonoro. Al agregar un subwoofer, estas bocinas escalan muchísimo, ampliando su rango de bajos de forma que se vuelven aún más aptas para el consumo multimedia. Esta combinación es especialmente ventajosa para los usuarios interesados en videojuegos o en ver películas desde el escritorio, proporcionando una inmersión sonora que puede rivalizar con sistemas de audio de mayor tamaño. Su capacidad para ambientar una sala mediana, a pesar de ser diseñadas primordialmente para uso de escritorio, es un testimonio de su versatilidad y potencia. Esto, sumado a su sonido neutro y sin colorear, las convierte en una opción ideal tanto para el entretenimiento como para la monitorización de audio en entornos de producción. Mi uso particular de estas bocinas es para consumo multimedia (videojuegos y películas) cuando no quiero escuchar con audífonos. Sin embargo, no todo es perfecto. La experiencia de tener que devolver DOS UNIDADES debido a problemas de calidad, una con daños físicos y otra con fallos de funcionamiento, me hace plantear ciertas preocupaciones respecto al control de calidad de PreSonus y a los procesos de envío y manejo por parte de Amazon en EE.UU. Aunque estos inconvenientes pueden considerarse casos aislados, afectan la percepción general del producto y podrían hacer dudar a potenciales compradores sobre la fiabilidad de su adquisición. Finalmente, después de superar estos obstáculos, la satisfacción con el producto es tal que justifica el esfuerzo adicional. PERO ESTO NO DEBERÍA SUCEDER. En fin... mi decisión de insistir en su compra me dejó satisfecho por poder disfrutar de estas bocinas. En general: las recomiendo mucho =)

Trae un TDA7265 que limita su calidad de audio. Es un diseño antiguo: Es un amplificador Clase AB diseñado hace décadas para minicomponentes, televisiones viejas y bocinas de computadora de gama media. Distorsión armónica (THD): A baja potencia se comporta decentemente (alrededor de 0.02% THD y 25w reales por via), pero en cuanto le exiges volumen o picos dinámicos, la distorsión se dispara rápido, ensuciando precisamente las frecuencias medias y altas. Pero en lo que cabe suenan decente y traen ya su interior forrado para amortiguar ecos indeseados.

El monitor funciona muy bien pero esperaba el par, no está muy claro en la publicación que solo es una unidad
