Eris E8 XT : Very impressed - First studio monitors
I use these studio monitors for multimedia and some casual music production. I am willing to buy a synthesizer so it will be at a good use.
Pros: Clear sound, crisp highs, good mids and great bass (I wouldn't have thought that it will have such detail in sound - it is a new level for me, since these are my first studio monitors, no wonder I am impressed by them :)
Very powerful speakers, I am using them on approx 10% volume with an M-Audio Air 192
4 (every knob set to middle on each speaker).
Love the front power indicators, they have a nice blue color but not that distracting at night.
Cons: A little bit tall speakers. Other than this nothing to complain about.
Each speaker comes with a power cable and 4 little pads on which it stands.
Probably the power consumption is higher compared to other speakers with Class-D amps, because these come with a Class-A/B amplifier, but this does not bother me.
Using the TRS connectors with balanced cables, all good.
I do not recommend the use of RCA connectors, because they are unbalanced and anything can interfere with the signal, which results in a heavy white-noise.
