  • Surprisingly Good Monitors at a Surprisingly Comfortable Price Point
Size: 4.5" Color: Black
Let me first start by saying that this is not my first pair of small near-field monitors. I've owned two other pairs of similarly-sized monitors in the past, both of which sounded like cheap junk. These days, I do my listening and mixing on a pair of Yamaha HS8s on two isolating stands in a very dampened (though largely untreated) bedroom, but I needed a slightly more portable pair of speakers that could accompany my laptop and a small interface to production sessions away from home. I wanted something with above-average sound quality at a price that wouldn't hurt my feelings if they somehow got damaged during transport. I read tons of reviews both here and at every reputable pro-audio retail website, and chose these over every other similarly priced and sized model because of their consistently glowing reviews. Of course, I was still skeptical because I have a hard time trusting the opinions and expectations of others when it comes to reviews on entry-level studio monitors. As a self-proclaimed "reasonable audiophile" and someone who has been producing and mixing music for a little more than 10 years now, I'm sure even my credentials (and my ears) will come into question during this review, and they should. It's always best to be skeptical about the type of claims I'm going to make here, especially when it comes to speakers or headphones that you haven't personally had the opportunity to audition before buying. Keeping that in mind, here are my thoughts on the Eris E4.5 monitors. Wow. At the time I purchased these, they were selling here for just under $200. I feel comfortable saying that these are the unicorn exception to the "you get what you pay for" rule of audio equipment. They don't blow me away in the same way that larger, more expensive speakers often do, but to say that I was initially stunned by the sound of these speakers would be an understatement. Because I purchased these speakers for mixing, I was most interested in how they perform at low-to-moderate levels. They certainly get loud enough to fill a room with sound, even uncomfortably loud in the right room, but I'll never need them to be that loud. At a level just slightly above the volume of the average speaking voice, these things sound unbelievably good for their size. The bass and sub-bass response isn't going to shake your foundation, but it's more than good enough for my purposes. They feel sturdy and don't have a lot of strange resonances that are difficult to work around; they don't "ring" a lot when you rap on them with your knuckles. The included adhesive foam pads didn't do anything special in terms of isolation, but they stick well and helps them to not slide around so easily on a smooth surface. If you really need to isolate these from the surface they're sitting on, just spring for some Auralex or a pair of small desktop stands. On the whole, they perform well across the frequency spectrum. They're far from flat, but they're also nowhere near as colorful as other similar small near-field monitors I've used; make no mistake, this lack of extreme coloration is a very good thing. They really shine in the midrange and treble frequencies, though. At low volumes, they deliver audio with impressive clarity. If you're working a quiet room, you should have no trouble hearing your changes on these little workhorses. I've already traveled with them once; took a trip to a cabin in the mountains and these had no problems keeping up when inspiration struck. I produce primarily electronic rock music, so being able to hear and understand what's going on at the bottom of the mix is extremely important in most of what I do. Again, the bass won't rock the house, but it's there and it gives you just what you need if you know what to listen for. When they're at home, they're hooked up to my turntable; a very modest AT-LP120 and a MicroPhono preamp (yes, the Behringer unit). The manual included with these monitors states that you should use the on-board "low cutoff" control to attenuate the bass frequencies if you plan to back them up close to a wall, but I've gotten the best results by ignoring that advice, leaving that switch at 0 and keeping them about 2" from the wall atop a bookshelf. I'll need to upgrade at least two other parts of my vinyl chain before I can feel like it has outgrown these speakers. To sum this all up, these monitors sound far better than they have any right to, considering their size and at the price they're being sold for. I won't waste your time waxing poetic about the subjective, unquantifiable aspects of the sound these monitors produce, but I can't emphasize enough that you'll get more than your money's worth out of these. If you have realistic expectations of what near-field monitors of this size and price will sound like, you'll probably be just as impressed as I was. ... show more

  • High Quality at a Good Price
Size: 4.5" Color: Black
* I'm coming from Logitech computer speakers * These are a great set of speakers at a respectable price point. The front panel has Aux, headphone jack, volume knob, and power on/off. The front panel looks great and the exposed speakers are a style I prefer. The sound quality is very good clear and feels neutral. I am not an audiophile, but my ears are impressed. If you are looking for a punchy bass heavy set of speakers, avoid these. They will not meet your needs. However, if you are looking for clear audio with a more neutral sound curve, get these. Hard to beat at the price range. The actual build quality looks great and very sturdy. There is no rattle or vibration issues. It also comes with foam pads to put under the speakers if needed. ... show more

  • Great speakers, may not last forever
Size: 4.5" Color: Black
I got a set of Eris 4.5 gen 1s (non-bluetooth) about 5 years ago and until recently they were fantastic. They have great performance for the budget and were a significant step up from the cheap edifiers I used before them. They sound clear, had very low self-noise, and performed well. I paid $200 at the time and they were good value for that price. Unfortunately after about 5 years of use the built in amplifier started to fail, developing a constant loud hiss and significant distortion at higher frequencies. Checking with my oscilloscope showed me the amp was injecting a 24kHz signal into the speaker which was aliasing down to the annoying hiss and tone I was hearing. (I can't hear 20khz+, I'm too old, but the aliased frequency matches what I was hearing) Both speakers use the same amp which means the set was now effectively dead. (I did verify this was the speaker, and not the power, environment, etc) For that five year period I had no complaints. I've since upgraded to a much nicer set of monitors but I would still recommend these to someone wanting a nice set of studio monitors without wanting to spend $400+, just understand these may not last your whole life. For anyone curious, when I opened the case to diagnose the dead amp I saw the bluetooth and non-bluetooth gen-1 models are identical. The bluetooth module sits on a daughter-board on the amp. The non-bluetooth version contains the PCB but the components are not populated. You could probably reverse-engineer this to inject your own signal into the amp. ... show more

  • NICE BASS AND TREBLE, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️STUDIO SPEAKERS
Size: 4.5" Color: Black
I was amazed by just how good the audio quality is when you used it for vinyl turntable, it has pre-amp built into so you don’t have to spend more, very affordable and got it for discount, really love the sound, the installation was super easy, it’s just outstanding, and the size is just perfect, I never had any problem with them, they are pretty loud reaching almost 110 db like a ambulance :-), I really love those guys and the equalizer behind just add an extra layer of premium stuff, the only thing missing is the Bluetooth connectivity but you can easily buy a adapter here for just 15$ bucks or connect it to aux, Overall what they offer it’s just what you need 🙏🏼 ... show more

  • Excellent sound
Size: 4.5" Color: Black
I am very happy with these speakers. Their response is vey close to flat, with exaggerated bass response around 100 KhZ but there are boost/cut controls for 100 Hz and 10 KhZ. This solved that problem, which may have been caused by how I placed them. The sound is clear and crisp, and they have plenty of clean volume. ... show more

  • Awesome Studio Monitors
Size: 4.5" Color: Black
The product is solid and has great volume. Clear and articulate sound. Great for music production and listening. Be aware though these are Gen1 not Gen2 and the advertising does not stipulate this fact. These do not have the hissing problem others are complaining about with the Gen2's. Also Presonus does not allow a free download on the Software that is advertised here on this product, that feature has been discontinued. Keeping the speakers due to sound and quality and was given an adjustment in price. Highly recommended otherwise. One other thing and it's not the sellers issue but Presonus calls these 4.5" woofers. They are not, they are 4" and only a half inch bigger than the Edifier 1280T 3.5, although they sound a lot better than those. ... show more
