Compact and affordable monitor set

The Presonus Eris 3.5 2nd Gen is an active two-way stereo studio monitor set. Featuring a 3.5" woofer and a 1" tweeter, this model is the smallest in the manufacturer's compact class. The series combines an attractive price tag with an accurate and balanced sound reproduction that has been configured for greater precision in the second-generation monitor set, particularly in the bass range. In addition, the basic Eris models feature an impressive array of connection options. The Eris 3.5 2nd Gen offered here (minus the suffix "BT") dispenses with a Bluetooth interface in favour of an affordable price.

Balanced sound

The Presonus Eris 3.5 2nd Gen comes in a highly compact and robust bass reflex housing produced from vinyl-laminated MDF. The 3.5" woven-composite woofer produces a clear bass response from 80Hz and ensures a uniform dispersion across the entire frequency spectrum, while the 1" tweeter with silk dome ensures natural articulation of highs and a wide sweet spot in the listening position. Each speaker is powered by a 25W class AB amplifier. The two amplifiers are housed in the left-hand speaker, which also features a handy headphone output at the front. The right-hand speaker is connected like a satellite and does not require a dedicated power supply.

Ideal for home studios

The Presonus Eris 3.5 2nd Gen is ideal for all users who are looking for reliable monitoring at a low price and, thanks to the speaker's extremely compact housing, is not only perfect for YouTubers and podcasters who operate at minimalistic workstations, but also for music and video production. The 3.5" woofer is ideally suited to near-field use in small to very small rooms. What is more, the Presonus Eris 3.5 2nd Gen boasts a simple filter section with two shelving filters for bass and treble (+/- 6dB each), allowing the sound to be adapted to a room's acoustics. For an optimised low end, combining the monitors with a subwoofer such as the Eris Sub 8BT may just produce the desired result. As the subwoofer also happens to come with a Bluetooth interface, users will barely notice the omission of this function from the Eris 3.5.

About Presonus

Presonus is a US company founded in 1995 by Jim Odom and Brian Smith in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The firm designs hardware and software at both professional and more affordable levels for musicians and producers. Presonus first made a splash in the mid-1990s with the DCP8, an eight-channel analogue compressor/limiter/gate with fader and mute automation that could be digitally controlled by MIDI. In the early 2000s followed a series of microphone amplifiers and the first audio interfaces for the then-emerging home studio scene. Today, the company’s product range includes audio interfaces, microphone preamps, digital mixing consoles, and studio monitors as well as the established DAW software Studio One.

Extensive connectivity

The Presonus Eris 3.5 2nd Gen offers extensive connectivity, making it ideal for integration into a versatile living and working area. The left-hand speaker is equipped with balanced 6.3mm TRS jack sockets for audio interface connection and an unbalanced RCA socket for HiFi systems. The 3.5mm stereo jack input at the front of the speaker enables the rapid connection of wired playback devices such as smartphones or tablets. For added practicality, the volume control and headphone jack can also be found on the speaker.

Best quality for the prize

Despite the size, the sound quality is astonishingly good! It doesn’t have the bluetooth feature but I haven’t had the need for it yet.

Good product for it's category, but it's not a good category
Balázs Dusek 06.11.2024
Hi all. I picked up the Presonus Eris 3.5 2nd gen as a pair of inexpensive monitor speakers for amateur music production, which includes listening to mixes, monitoring guitar plugins and generally as a playback device for every part of music production that requires it. I also use them as a general purpose computer speaker, which covers the majority of my usage time but I believe that both of the use cases share most of the important quality requirements.

As for the title of this review: I am simply not sure if this category, extremely budget monitor speakers, is a thing that should exist. When I plugged these speakers into my audio interface, I got the muddiest bass I have ever heard. And that was mostly because my room is not sound treated and terribly echo-y, which is obviously not the fault of the speaker, but here is where my point comes in. To sound-treat a room to a level where monitor speakers reach their full potential, is kind of expensive. Definitely multiple times what this speaker is worth. To me, it simply doesn't make sense to have the room treatment be more expensive than the actual hardware being used in it. And this is why I think that if anyone is looking at this product with the desire to get good audio, they should stop doing so. Because that means that they are on a *very* tight budget, and frankly, there are seriously seriously better sounding options in the world of semi-pro audio in this price category. Get a pair of headphones or IEMs. My 50EUR iems sound better out of the box. They are better than these in every metric except for not having to have things on your head. If wearing headphones is something you can live with, then go look at those, they're a lot more worth it.

Cheers

Great home speakers
CASD 27.01.2024
I moved into a new studio so my nice monitors were at my house. I wanted a cheap pair just for listening to stuff at home. These are far better than they have any right to be, lots of connectivity super cheap and sound pretty all good.
