PreSonus Eris 5BT 5.25" Bluetooth Studio Monitors (Pair)
The PreSonus Eris 5BT is a pair of 5.25-inch studio monitors with 100 W of Class D power and Bluetooth 5.0. It's the largest Bluetooth model in the Eris range: the one you pick when the bedroom turns into a real production corner and the low end has to be judged, not imagined.
What sets it apart
- 5.25" woven glass fibre woofer, response from 55 Hz
- 100 W of Class D power, or 50 W per speaker
- Peaks at 104 dB at one metre
- Foundation of a 2.1 system with the Eris Sub 8BT subwoofer
More power for production
With 50 W per side, the 5BT keeps headroom when you turn it up to check how a chorus hits. PreSonus revoiced this generation for richer lows and a smoother hand-off between the two drivers, crossed at 3.3 kHz: less fatigue after a long session.
The 1-inch silk-dome tweeter spreads sound widely, which enlarges the area where the stereo image stays accurate. Useful when you roll your chair between the keyboard and the computer.
Ready to grow
When you need even more bass, PreSonus suggests adding an Eris Sub 8BT for a 2.1 system that fits almost anywhere. Each speaker is 26.2 cm tall, 17.8 cm wide and 20 cm deep.
