@@DSAUDIOreview what if a pair of e5s was 70$ cheaper than a pair of krks ?

Frequency Response was dope!! Thanks for preparing such a fine video!!

I finally found one could order such high quality sound comparing. Great!

Would love to see Presonus Eris E5 vs. Kali Audio LP-6!

thumbs up for frequency response!

Eris 5's beat KRK in the bass detail for some reason, that was dope, maybe its the advantage of more wattage on Eris, More wattage always gives better sound at most, and eq is flat enough in both. Both are great!!

Very Nice this channel to test monitors. Thanks a lot to Digital Stereophony!

This is an amazing channel thank you!

Presonus Eris E5 gave the Rokit a battle! Wow!

They sound *very* similar, to the point that not looking at the video I couldn't tell when the switch happen. On Long Drive I think the e5 had a little too much emphasis on a particular mid-frequency of the voice. The biggest difference I heard it on Man on Fire, the e5 were a little brighter and imo sounded better.

Get yourself the krk g4’s has to be gen 4 they can be flat and bassy just your own prefference or take the adams t5v. Both good pick.

Had the krk in checkout until I just heard this.. not sure if it’s what I’m listening on but on some tracks, the mids on the krk seemed to jumble into a slight mess?

I’ve questions can that speaker or any speaker for studio im use for house party always in higher volume have effects for the speakers? Thankyou

I have tested the most of the monitors available on my country and the focal alpha 50 were the best in the range that i was looking, but i was amased when i tried the presonus eris 5, they sounded almost as good as the focal, but with less low end. But the focal cost me arround $600 pair. And the presonus are arround $360 pair

First of all, thanks for the amazing channel! Came here to check reviews on Edifier 1700BT, and here I am few weeks later after having watched tons of your amazing videos, making my choice for a desktop / music listening speakers. Completely forgot about the Edifier 1700, and here I am making up my mind between these two monitors. I am someone who can barely call him self audio enthusiast, and this will be my first entry in that field, may I say. So, any help would be appreciated by recommending one of these speakers primarily for music listening and gaming. Thanks in forward to anyone who replies. One important thing I should mention is that in my region, the KRK cost 160 euros per piece ($180) and the Presonus 100 euros ($110).

Yea something is off in this review, I know for a fact the Krks low end is very solid for this price range and the Presonus is weaker...but a lot of people here saying different

listening to this on eris 5's the original vs the eris 5 sound way different. listening through a motu m2 interface.

Plz do Kali LP-6 vs KRK Rokit 5 G4 next!!!!

They sounded so close Listening through Sennheiser HD380 Pro

Eris E5 vs LP6 please other than that great videos

They sound 98% the same to my ears. In Canadian dollars the Eris E5 are $149 each, and the KRK Rokit 5 G4 are $239 each. That's a $90 difference per speaker. I'm going to buy a pair of E5's. I did not see what the extra $180 difference is in the KRK's.

All kick sounds on KRK are more realistic and closer to original. But Krk miss sub bass.

Two great Speaker. Is it surprising that this two different Speaker Sounds so Close. KRK is a Digital DSP optimized Speaker and the another is complete Analog AB. Presonus have typical a bit to much round 70-250hz but in combination with 80 or 100hz pass filter and a Sub come this down to a extrem good combination. Both Speaker have enough mids and both have good highs. The Kevlar Tweeter from KRK Sounds different to another speaker, maybe not for all, for me personality more real as a adam tweeter but i like the highs from Presonus more.

Is it possible to use the Presonus with a subwoofer? In that case, how would be the conections?

@obiw17

3 жыл бұрын

Yes you can add an active subwoofer to them. The audio out from source will go to the active subwoofer and then the output from the subwoofer will go to the Eris monitors. The sub manages the low end and sends the rest to the speakers. You have 8" and 10" Eris subs that match well with these.

I have the Presonus Eris E5's with a pair of Rokit 8 G2s. I mix on the E5s and check my low end on the KRKs because the Rokits sound muddy and muffled and the E5s are waaay better. But these G4s sound better than the E5s to me. At least in these tests.

Really torn on this. I bought e5s and they sound amazing but i like the KRKs too.

i just wanted to point out here that the difference in bass is considerably bigger than you might think, i bought the presonus first, awesome mids and highs, but really lacking in the low end, with the krk's, which i own now, i can finally check my lows, and even subs below 43Hz, which they are rated at, and in my treated room, the bass goes to about 33Hz, after that you cant hear them anymore. (it goes down to 33Hz, but the volume drastically decreses at around 38) so if the price difference isnt too big in your country, buy the Krk's.

@emmanuellopez870

KRK CLASSIC?

I had the Eris and found something off in the timing between the lows and mids. Something not right , lack of focus in the lows to low mids. Bought the HS5 and they piss all over the eris, much more transparent, great mids, tight lows, timing is really sharp. But from my impressions, the KRk are the ones to get, very balanced and tight , an all around great budget monitor, especially for dance music, where lack of lows on hs5 makes headphones an essential companion. However the HS5 are great. A bad mix stands out on them, they are great for fixing problems in the mids, I guess that’s where they shine the most, I can see why they are such a standard for a secondary monitor. I just don’t rate the Eris, above anything else I’ve owned or heard , you can easily get better for the price.

Not

The Eris sound a little fuller, and we can say a little cleaner, but both really squeak a little in the treble, the KRK pale a little in the bass (not bad for 55w, actually), but, both eat up the sound, both in middles but especially in bass. In my humble opinion I would not buy either of them, maybe wait a little and opt for the KRK Rokit 7, and if you can already put in a little more money, I would choose the Focal Alpha 65 EVO.

I think the Classic E5's are the best value over the new XT / WaveGlide one's. Setting up my 9 year old with her station on a K2600XS owned by Alicia Keys.

KRK needs placing or something bc u've got a huge medium hole here that kills everything. This reviews can be pretty catrastophic, I wonder how manufacturers can react given the fact that rooms can be so important. Well it's a start in choice, and it's pretty disturbing about the KRK... but I wouldn't buy just from this kind of sound reviews. Given the KRKs have a pretty good reputation is really striking. So best is to test in real conditions at the end. Thx anyway.

really similar

Definitely Krk .....nice & precise clarity details . Balanced.

i have been using eris5 for 3years now. its good for mixing, listening. very detailed highs and mids. bass is ok. it really shine when listsning to band music. guitars, etc. analog warm and clear highs character. realy great on mixing vocal. or listening to music with focus on vocals. its down side is the highs freq detail on eris can give too much details and feel overwhelming. it easily give my ears really bad ear fatigue after 20mins of listening. unfortunately,also its hard to feel the vibe from electronic music with eris. compare to the Rokit i had. bottom line. band, live instruments music go for Eris. electronic music go for rokit.
