Adding a subwoofer to full-range speakers enables you to hear the low-frequency foundation of your mix more accurately so you can make better-informed decisions and create more translatable mixes. The surprisingly loud 100 watt Eris Sub8 drops down to a molar-rattling 30 Hz, so you'll hear the full sonic spectrum and produce better mixes. For EDM and hip-hop producers, in particular, a subwoofer is a must-have.
Although compatible with a variety of full-range studio monitors, the PreSonus® Eris® Sub8 compact studio subwoofer was designed to complement the voicing and frequency response of Eris-series studio monitors and media reference monitors. The Eris Sub8 lets you naturally extend the reach of your Eris E3.5, E4.5, E44, E5 and E5 XT monitors in a manner appropriate to smaller rooms - exactly where these monitors excel.
Flexible connectivity options and onboard controls let you effortlessly create a 2.1 monitoring system and tune it to your room. Set the input gain and even invert the polarity. A highpass filter and lowpass filter (crossover) control ensure your Eris Sub8 starts working at the precise frequency where your main monitors stop, avoiding the flabby, smudged, low-end mess that occurs without a crossover. To top it off, you get a full suite of music recording and production software worth more than $1,000.
So add a PreSonus Eris Sub8 subwoofer to your sound system and hear, with precision accuracy, the powerful low-frequency sound you've been missing.
