Presonus Eris E8 XT Reviews

Good sound and quality monitors. A value for money speaker set for the studio.

I recently ordered these monitors to our country Tajikistan, I am already working on them in my studio, I use them for arranging and mixing, they sound great, I generally wanted to buy a Yamaha hs8 first, listened to a comparison of both monitors and came to the conclusion that Presonus xt 8 sounds clearly denser and more original than the Yamaha hs8, even compared to the 5-inch monitors of these both manufacturers, you can hear from the sound that the presonus gives a crisp low and clear high frequencies.The quality of the workmanship of the external material was a little upset when my hand accidentally brushed the surface , a piece fell off the surface layer of the laminate, but of course everything suits me, and I advise everyone who sits and thinks to order Presonus)).

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.
