## Overview

The PreSonus Eris E8 XT is an 8-inch near-field studio monitor featuring a woven composite woofer and a 1.25-inch silk-dome tweeter with an innovative EBM waveguide for a wide, controlled sweet spot. It offers advanced acoustic tuning controls, 140W bi-amplification, and versatile connectivity options. Bundled with professional-grade music production software, it’s designed for precise mixing, group collaboration, and immersive listening experiences.

## Description

With the same robust connectivity options and powerful, articulate driver Combo, the Eris E8 XT studio monitor is a nuanced update to a lauded classic. The 1. 25-Inch silk-dome tweeter now sports a Hugh sarvis-designed EBM waveguide, delivering a wider and more controlled sweet spot ideal for group listening and collaboration. A larger, ported enclosure extends the bass response of the 8-inch woven composite low-frequency driver without adding any mud. And of course, the acoustic tuning controls let you flatten the frequency response in accordance with your mix environment. It’s Eris, remastered.

Review: 10/10 for the price, if you want a genuine 10/10 you need to pay more. - So overall these are pretty good speakers I have been using them for 2 years now and have very little complaints for the price being what it is. Overall I think the only thing I can say bad about them is that the low ends can kind of sound a bit muddy imo at times especially if you don't have them set to cut off anything lower than 80hz when its using the full frequency range it is honestly kind of muddy if you have the volume any higher then maybe like a 20 on windows so it's great when you're working at a low volume in the middle of the night or something like that but when you get the chance to be loud during the day it's a 8/10. I personally do enjoy them a lot despite this complaint they are great for gaming, great for movies, great for just listening to music and for producing music genuinely a 8/10, if you can produce with the 80hz cutoff id say you'll feel like theyre a 10 but i personally enjoy the lower range frequencies while designing basses. DO NOT USE THESE WITHOUT A INTERFACE TOO, you will get a static background noise that will piss you off more than anything else. when i first started producing i thought these speakers were complete poo because of that but after getting a interface they jumped up greatly and i am glad i waited to write a review they are very functional and much easier to work with now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just good speakers

Just what i wanted

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ JBL 308P Vs Eris E8 XT - I prefer the JBLs
*by C***N on March 3, 2023*

I will say before continuing, I purchased these at a 51% discount so Im looking at the perspective of these being about 160$ each or 350$ for the pair after taxes. In this context, despite my preference for the JBL 308P's, 350$ for a pair of 8 inch studio monitors is a no brainer. Given the choice Id be more than happy with these if I were a beginner producer wanting or needing large studio monitors. However I am not a beginner producer, so I need something more accurate and honest about what Im creating to make the best product I can. I will start with pros with the Eris E8 XT's. - Very professional looking and requires very little cleaning. microfiber cloth will be more than enough - Options for tuning the speaker is plentiful and should be good for adapting to any room - Packaging is simple and produces little waste - Mids and highs are clear and powerful - Listed Feq. response is accurate and can actually go below 20Hz with ease. Port is tuned to about 35 Hz. - Can get as loud as the JBL 308P's... kinda Cons about the Eris E8 XT's - Can not for the life of it handle any signal over about -10db. Will distort and become VERY muddy and bloated sounding. This is with gain in the middle and AS set to -4db. Sounds the same across all three settings. - has a certain Freq. range where the woofer just sounds like it wants to die. I believe around the 50-120ish Hz range where your kicks and most bass lives. Ive tested several genres of music and its the same results. kicks just huff and chuff and sounds like someone is hitting a wall - Bass sounds best behind the speaker? or like, right beside it? but nowhere infront of the speaker. Interesting. - Woofer is hitting max excursion at about 60-70% volume and I fear for its life span Eris E8 XT Vs. JBL 308P (as a reminder, this is subjective and this is taking MY specific setup into consideration. This may not apply to you) Bass reponse - JBL 308P Mids and Highs - Eris E8 XT Adjustability and versatility - Eris E8 XT High volume stability - JBL 308P Out of Box experience - JBL 308P Mix and Master - JBL 308P Best sweet spot - JBL 308P MSRP - JBL 308P Price to performance (at MSRP) - JBL 308P Price to performance (on sale) - Eris E8 XT Aesthetic - Eris E8 XT Now let me talk about introducing a subwoofer. If you let the subwoofer do all the bass work that the E8 XT cant do, these are better. However standalone I dont believe the JBL 308P needs a subwoofer, not unless you really need it. The JBL 308P is just a more refined speaker. My source is a Soundcraft Notepad-8fx and everything is running through Worlds Best Cables XLR cables. Speakers are place Aprox. 6 ft away from me and are 6 ft apart from eachother at the tweeters. All in all, I dont dislike these. at about 150$ a piece this is a great speaker. I just can not justify it costing over 300$ with its weaknesses. Be smart, buy these on sale.
