PreSonus adds 7-inch Eris E7 XT to its studio monitor range
5,0 / 5,0 | 
PreSonus has expanded its Eris studio monitor range with a new 7-inch model, the Eris E7 XT. Like its brethren, the E7 XT features a custom Eliptically Boundary Modeled waveguide which is designed for a 100-degree wide “sweet spot”.
PreSonus Eris E7 XT
Other characteristics include 7-inch woofer, 1.25-inch silk dome tweeter, 100-watt class AB power amplifier (same as the larger E8 XT), acoustic tuning controls, and three kinds of input connections (XLR, TRS, RCA). The tuning controls include Low-cut, Mid, High, and a 3-way acoustic space tuning to compensate for placement against walls or corners. The 7-inch woofer does not go quite as far down as the larger model, but 42 Hz should still be enough for a powerful and focused bass reproduction. In addition to the gain control, the panel for acoustic tuning allows you to raise and lower mids (1 kHz) and treble (10 kHz) up to 6 dB.
