Single active 2-way studio monitor

The PreSonus Eris Studio 5 is a single active 2-way studio monitor built for audio engineers, producers, and musicians who need accurate stereo imaging. It uses a 5.25-inch woven composite woofer and a 1-inch silk-dome tweeter driven by Class-AB bi-amplification. The EBM waveguide creates a wide sweet spot for critical listening in home studios or professional mix rooms.

Connections and room placement

Verify that your audio interface or mixer provides XLR, 1/4-inch TRS, or RCA outputs to match the monitor's rear inputs. The rear panel includes a three-position Acoustic Space switch, High and Mid trim controls, and a low-cutoff filter to compensate for boundary bass boost when the monitor sits near a wall or in a corner. An Auray IP-M isolation pad is included for decoupling.

Sustained output behaviour

Two Class-AB amplifiers deliver 45W to the woofer and 35W to the tweeter for a combined 80W of continuous power. The system reaches 102 dB SPL with a frequency response from 48 Hz to 20 kHz. RFI protection and output current limiting protect the amplifiers during extended sessions at high volume.

Questions about this item

Does the bundle include speaker cables or do I need to buy XLR or TRS leads separately?

The bundle supplies one 1/4" TRS male-to-male audio cable; XLR or RCA cables are not included and must be purchased separately if required.

The monitor has 45 W for the woofer and 35 W for the tweeter — which figure represents the total amplifier power?

The two Class-AB amplifiers combine to 80 W total, with 45 W driving the 5.25" woofer and 35 W driving the 1" silk-dome tweeter.

What does the 102 dB SPL rating mean for actual listening levels in a small room?

102 dB SPL is the maximum continuous output; in a typical near-field setup it provides ample headroom for detailed mixing well below that peak level.
