PreSonus Studio 5 Overview
Audio engineers, producers, and musicians looking for a professional studio monitor with a wide stereo image will be impressed with the single PreSonus Eris Studio 5, an active 2-way studio monitor that provides an expanded and highly accurate frequency response and a wide stereo field, thanks to the custom-designed EBM (Elliptical Boundary Modeled) waveguide, which provides a broad sweet spot. This compact studio monitor is well-suited for both home studios and professional mix rooms.
Two Class-AB amplifiers deliver 45W to the 5.25″ woven composite woofer and 35W to the 1″ silk dome tweeter, which offers a snappy, accurate transient response. The monitor offers a frequency response from 20 kHz down to 48 Hz for a full-range sound with plenty of volume (102 dB SPL). The rear panel provides acoustic tuning controls, including a three-position Acoustic Space switch that helps compensate for the boundary bass boost that can occur when a monitor is placed in a corner or near a wall. High and Mid controls help to further mitigate room anomalies, while a low cutoff filter makes it easy to integrate a subwoofer into your monitor setup.
