The PreSonus Eris E3.5 active media reference monitors are the introduction model of this company’s line of reference monitors. They are great if you’re only starting your music production adventure or an audiophile. Similarly, they might be what you’re looking for if you want some real punch while you play on your video games. Furthermore, they have the same technology as their big brothers, but in a compact model. For this reason, they’re great if you have limited studio space or if you’re music production nomad. In short, these reference monitors offer great sound quality with a smooth and accurate response.
Eris E3.5: Features
One of the great features on the Eris E3.5 is their woven composite low-frequency driver that delivers a great overall sound and bass. Moreover, its 3.5-inch woofer results in a constant dispersion of pattern through the frequency range. As a result, the sound is clear which is very pleasant. The equipment comes with a one-inch silk dome tweeter, which produces some smooth and refined sounds. Also, it delivers high-frequency accurately and without any flicker. Therefore, the tweeter transmits a radiant, clear, sound in a fairly wide pattern. Consequently, the Eris E3.5 become particularly interesting because it makes for a larger sweet spot (or optimal listening area). In other words, this means that you can move around and still have a great reference of sound. Similarly, if you’re mixing with a partner, you can both enjoy the good reference.
For their dimensions, the Eris E3.5 reference monitors pack a great punch thanks to their onboard 25watt side power amp. They may seem small, but they can really get loud and, at the same, time deliver clear and accurate sounds. But remember that placing your reference monitors in a correct location is key to get the most out of them. For your convenience, these speakers have a volume knob, a headphone jack, and an aux jack on the front panel for easy access. Even more so, you can connect them virtually to any line of source. In brief, they’re great and versatile.
