Which one is better for listen to music only, JBL LSR305P MKII + JBL LSR310S or PreSonus Eris E5 XT + PRESONUS Temblor T10? Thanks!

[@milo.ibrado]

Which one do you prefer?

[@luketrueheights7111]

I have both sets and have done numerous A/B testing with them. Let me put it in simple terms for you from a real-life perspective... Rokits run slightly quieter and make music sound more 'HD' and true. Presonus do colour music slightly although admittedly plug-in effects sound more pleasing to the ear, but running noise is still a bit annoying if you sit too close. It worth noting that running noise may have a lot of contributing factors such and cables, power supply, using extension cables, other devices nearby etc. So, In conclusion it really is preference. I have to admit though, these sound test are really well done and the differences are fairly accurate to what you hear on here. One thing I will say though about the Presonus is that the letter 'S' sounds slightly distorted compared to the Rokits on some tracks. Weird, I know... These differences are very minor though and some might not notice them at all.

[@luketrueheights7111]

The Presonus out the box on flat settings are MUCH louder too just FYI

[@DSAUDIOreview]

The running noise/hiss is an issue of the monitors not of the "external circumstances". Besides that I agree with you description. Cheers!

[@luketrueheights7111]

@@johnnyharb8058 so I chose to keep the Presonus e5xt's. I've since upgraded my cables and that significantly lowered to hiss, to where its almost non-existent. I honestly couldn't tell which ones I 'prefer' but I knew I had to keep one pair and sell the other. I don't regret my decision though. Hope this helps mate 👍

[@MattZildjian]

The E5 might have nicer sounding highs but they are too much, the KRK has better mids in my opinion. I don't see an obvious winner here.

[@diaperwiper]

I agree, thankfully there is a db knob for both highs and mids, but I had to pull both down by a couple db to get a better idea of what my lows were sounding like.

[@keiththomasguitar]

I was thinking of buying the E5's but Im a little put off with some people talking about noise issues and build quality. They do sound great but I think I will go for the KRK's. Pitty about the yellow cones, not much a fan of them.

[@georgemichas8773]

same here !

[@sumdood2035]

FWIW I have the E5's and they're being returned as we speak. I ordered the G4's. The Presonus have horrible levels of noise after running near but not touching the bunch of cables routed behind my cramped desk. I even upgraded from RCA to XLR and the noise didnt change one bit. Quieter on the XLR's because balanced tends to have less output than unbalanced. IMO, these speakers have ZERO internal filtering for noise. Let's hope the KRK's, as proper studio monitors, do. I think it's ridiculous, that an ancient pair of Logitech X140's as my previous PC speakers had ZERO noise in the same environment.

[@distortd]

Have E5 xt on desk for a year. Never had a noise, just pure sound, connected with trs>xlr.

[@sumdood2035]

I bought the krk's, and trs to xlr via a tascam audio interface, which I already had. No noise whatsoever now. They were a bit bright in default config but the preset eq curves fixed that. There are magnetic covers you can buy to protect the tweeters and mute the yellow a bit.

[@keyboyrecords]

Because of your videos I purchased the Mackie mr524. I needed low bass and clarity and they do fantastic at both. I did a -2 on the highs and it's just right.

[@salamander2939]

[@keyboyrecords]

@@salamander2939 yes. Best 200.00 I have spent on speakers. I got a deal on them used from Guitar Center but they looked new and sound it.

[@pioferro]

Wow! Those Presonus sound amazing!

[@klipk7296]

The graphs are so similar but I feel like I can hear that upper mid presence far more on the krk as well as the heightened treble on the presonus. Either way the krk sounds more focused and condensed, presonus sounds more diffuse and cloudy, my preference is krk but I'm stuck with presonus for now.

[@evilelf5967]

try using them alongside presonus 26c audio interface....work well.if you have signal issues try using a DI and preamp on them.they usually lack signal.

[@SouloftheTroll]

Nailed it! The final graphs are exactly what I heard! Virtually identical speakers!! Amazing.

[@Absolutelylasteffect]

The focus in the medium range of krk makes me prefer, because in a mix if you mess up those, the sound becomes inaudible. I’m sure that the 7” will more better... maybe the right choice.

[@jodetheflowingwater1126]

That's right, the main focus as to be on mediums before the rest

[@zulis0226]

They are great. What was the setup on XTs back? I think higher frequencies are too enhanced and maybe this gives a feel of detail and dynamic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm about voice and guitar high frequencies from original track that leads to XT recording at kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHfCq2Scaq6XmM0 Highs frq on speakers even feels annoying.

[@crisgarrido4436]

I went for the Presonus E5 XT. After using them for about a week, there are sadly some issues. 1. I started noticing that one of the speakers was rattling with certain high trebble and/or bass (rattles at certain frequencies). Mine are sitting on sound isolation pads so I thought that was very odd. But when I lift the speaker up in the air, the rattling still continues which prompted me to search online. I am not alone with this problem. I read other reports on Amazon and on the Presonus’ forum indicating the rattling comes from a lose cone, and it seems exactly where the noise is originating from on mine. It is a manufacturing defect and there’s nothing one can but to return them. It’s very disappointing as I had been happy with the overall sound. 2. The second issue, albeit much minor, is on the other speaker. It makes a somewhat loud popping noise when turning the rear power switch from off to on. I read this was a common issue with the previous generation, but the newer XT’s were equipped with a mechanism to avoid this popping noise from happening at start-up. Sadly, this is still happening with one of mine. I have to say that this has made me lose confidence on the brand. It seems to me that the brand has to address some manufacturing issues at their Chinese plant where these are made. I plan to return these this week and place an order for the KRK 5G4’s. The sound is comparable to Presonus and, most importantly based on all the reviews and response to questions I’ve asked on Amazon and forums, the KRK 5G4’s are solidly built and have proven to be reliable for many over the years.

[@dustinglass]

Did you end up switching to the KRK's?

[@crisgarrido4436]

Yes, switched to KRK G5 and they’re so much better all around.

[@aneendyasarker]

Hello @aneendya sarker ! May i ask you why did you choose the krk and not the presonus? Thank you

[@aneendyasarker]

@@johnnyharb8058 At the time of puchase, E5 XT wasn't availabe on any local shop. So, it came down to first gen E5 vs Rokit 5 G4. The choice was easy. If the choice was between E5 XT and Rokit 5 G4, any one of them would be great.

[@billroufs7910]

this is a great side by side review. I've been looking to change (not upgrade) my existing Event BAS 20/20 monitors because of the weight (42 pounds) and heat output. Both of these monitors in this review sound great , although I did feel the KRK had a slightly thinner sound at higher volumes. One other thing not presented is the amplifier. The Presonus has an A/B amplifier and the KRK has a D amplifier which will determine efficiency and heat output.

[@cl2nden1st89]

I really hope KRK changes the colour of their drivers in the future. It really turns a lot of people off. I mean, we already see a lot of regular home consumers getting comfortable with the idea of using active speakers around their homes instead of the usual passives. You literally see the JBL LSRs everywhere now. They need to think of expanding their market outside of home studios.

[@ChrisBessy]

i have the RP5 G3 and the yellow and black is cool ..... but for me this new yellow is not very nice ..... and the speaker too .... (i prefer the style of the G3)

[@sumdood2035]

Get the optional grille covers for $20 and it will mask some of it.

[@TheMeherenow]

I don't claim to be as experienced as many here, but to my ears the KRK seem to have a more defined sound stage , a cleaner sound almost after listening for a while ...clinical. Is this the AB v D filtering ? I am on the verge of ordering the Rokit 5 G4 , but that clinical sound and the extra nearly £100 have kept my hands off the card !

[@prodrejent]

I hear more 'definition' in the E5 XT.

[@HeyCharlieBrown]

E5’s Highs are a lil on the bright side, but you can hear more of the detail with the E5’s🤔

[@byniasofficial2567]

E5's have +/-6db trim for mid and high frequencies.

[@kenney0313]

Nice! I was right. The Eris's sound in between KRK & Yamaha, just not quite on either level.

[@Sergiochentas]

Thank you for the test!!! Alguno sabe si se pueden probar en UME o microfusa? Estoy dudando entre estos dos monitores para añadirlos como escucha a un traktor S3. Estarían a un metro de mis oídos y lo malo es que estarán pegados a la pared y el derecho en una esquina. Me interesa mucho la capacidad de ecualización pues el de la esquina posiblemente genere picos o cancelaciones en los graves que habrá que atenuar.

[@tiasdas4466]

First of all you've to think about the use of these...krk is a little coloured and warm...but i think flatness is a useful and important thing on a studio monitor! So from me...its a win win for presonus!

[@steviesteve750]

I narrowed down the choice to these two, and went for the KRK before I heard this. Thankfully I don't have to change my decision, both are very very close, but the Presonus is a tad too bright for me. The KRK has a flatter sounding mid / presence too, something slightly odd with the Presonus to my ears Would be good to see the FR curves!

[@georgemichas8773]

what do you mean odd ?

[@MusicLover-pq4pi]

Listening with marshall earphones, the presonus sounds warmer to me, fuller midrange, this is what i like, but never heared them in reality, what do you guys think? I really like the yellow look of krk, but on this sound test i really liked presonus, they have a fuller thick sound wich i like, how do these sound in reality? Regarding, wich one does have a thicker sound?

[@EliasEH89]

[@VenVile]

The top end on the Presonus is just too much for my tastes. I can't say if it's just boosted or extended. In some songs, the top end sounds sweet, and in others it's sibilant and harsh. That said, I'll take the Rokits. I find them more balanced, overall. I find the midrange more defined on the Rokits too.

[@itsdimos]

Did u buy them

[@kamilkashaf2766]

The treble cleans up quite nicely on them though, if you turn it down by ~ -5 db. After that they sound better than the Rokits.

[@seanwu7796]

I turn it down all the way to -6db at treble and it sounds nice.

[@seanwu7796]

@@kamilkashaf2766 -5 or -6db which is better?

[@kamilkashaf2766]

@@seanwu7796 I turned the treble down in the E5XT a bit less than full, so closer to -5db, I'd say. This was the point for me where as I was gradually turning down the treble, the sound suddenly clicked in place. Lower than this, I could hear a slight roll-off. Also, I turned down the mids just a hair below unity, like literally the point where the knob starts turning, say around -0.5 db (or even less). To me, this evened out the balance between the lower and upper mids a bit better. Keep in mind though that these are analog tone controls that use variable resistors (aka potentiometers) and the knobs might not react the exact same way on every speaker, so it might be up or down slightly for you. In the end, I didn't buy the PreSonus, but after setting them up in the way that I just described, they were almost indistinguishable from the Neumann KH 80 DSP's that I bought instead, after an hour long A/B comparison. Those are probably the best measuring speakers you can objectively buy for under $10000, so that says a lot about how good the PreSonus are (with some effort). Set up this way, I would take them over everything else I heard from Focal, Dynaudio, KRK, JBL, iLoud, Mackie, Yamaha etc.

[@Tired-Canadian]

Maybe I have bad ears or something but to me the differences between the speakers isn’t much and neither sound terrible so to pick a winner for me it would depend on the price. Thanks and have a good day.

[@markfox8839]

I just hooked up a pair of E5 XT's in my vocal booth, and they produce a native white noise that is going to screw with my noise floor, even with no source connected. Digging through forums this is apparently an inherent design flaw up and down their range of monitors. Probably not great for a company designing things for audio pro folk. Seems like this will really hurt their sales over time, and as for mine, they're going back PRONTO. Not sure where to turn next, but I'm on the lookout for something that is silent when sitting idle and does exactly what it's supposed to do with accurate, uncolored playback. Hopefully, with roughly the same price-point and feature-set. Maybe these KRK? Maybe something else...🤷‍♂

[@jamesbeckman7370]

Rokit, to my ear, seems to have a slight edge on clarity. Otherwise they seem surprisingly similar, especially considering the price difference.

Bonjour, j'ai commandé sur AMAZON le presonus ERIS 5 XT, KRK 5 G4 et ADAM T5V. Le ERIS a des aigus présent, des médiums timides et des basses encore plus présente et pas très propres je dirais. Le KRK sonne réellement propre dans l'ensemble, je dirais peut être juste des médiums un peu colorés. Le ADAM..les aiguë sont limpide, les mediums magnifique, et les basses propre et très profonde dans les très basses pour un 5 pouces.

PreSonus hands down. Nothing but Yamaha/Polk, (too polite, less lively, almost sound signature), metal head was close. PreSonus has such presence, more articulation, out front more, more detail, and I still prefer the PreSonus 5's over the PreSonus XT's.

[@foxgrin1868]

between the two, which would you recommend for someone who doesn't have audio treatment in the room. Both have features that allow for flexibility in this case i.e. acoustic space for the e5xt and dsp room tuning. Does this feature even matter/make a difference Also, does the krk dsp room tuning allow for one to tune the speaker for mixing and producing and then later, tune it for enjoyable listening or DJing? Or is the range in this matter no large enough and what makes more of a difference here are the drivers/construction/manufacture tuning? Personally, im a beginner music producer and dj on a student budget looking to purchase my first studio monitors but will also just do regular music listening through them. I'm trying to decide between these two speakers and perhaps the previous e5s as that would be best budget option, but any of the three are acceptable wrt my budget. e5 - $139 e5XT - $194 krk5g4 - $239 I really like the clarity and audio space of the e5s (both of them) compared to the krks. The krks sound fuller in the mids and based but everything is a bit tighter together (differentiating between the instruments is more difficult). Sometimes the highs in the XTs sounds a bit shrill which is reflected in the freq. graph but this could just be worsened by my headphones and youtube. How does the in person demo compare? Its weird, because I thought the e5s sounded fuller and more balanced across the spectrum compared the XTs but then listening to the XTs in this comparison, the highs dont sound as shrill. Out of the three, which is best bang for your buck. Which has the best performance over all wrt to music production, and which is the most versatile in general? Sorry for asking so many questions. I dont have the option to demo any of these myself...

That's just specs on paper. In reality they both can do 50-55 Hz decently at most. The range you're talking about is at a +/-10db tollerance which is deliberately omitted as a marketing thing.

@@navidshirazi7725 Actually KRK RP5 doesn't have a full size 5'' woofer but rather 4-4.5-ish but the bass port design allows the speaker to go just a notch lower which IMO is a cool thing about them. Even in this vid you can see that KRK's low/mid driver is smaller than Presonus' which is also 4.75'' in reality.

[@yarreimoses5136]

are the highs of E5 this boosted!!? gosh ear bleeds. lol

[@saardean4481]

Respect for the work but if i was on the market to buy any of these i strongly advise everyone to listen in real life. 1) Zoom H6 far from Neutral. 2) You are listening to a room recording of a loudspeaker. 3) you are listening over your own speakers in your room. 4) The frequency responce Diagrams in the Video look a bit ..... lets say very similar. Especially up to 8-10khz. They basically only show the room acoustics in which they where recorded. In short. If you base your decision on which of the two you want to buy to this Video alone,,,,, then no one can help you :-)

[@dr4ncer]

you only can compare them since everything is the same except the monitors.

Can not decide: Eris E8 - Eris E8 XT - Krk rokit 8 G4 - Krk rokit 7 G4 ............... in terms of size i would prefer rokit 7 G4 and in the terms of price i would go for Eris E8 , but in terms of the audio dont know what is better. Heard that the new rokits are much better than the previous rokits G2,G3 (I had the rokit 6 G2 in the past and they were quite good) . Can somebody help me out? ....................... i also had Kali audio LP-6 in the past , but they didnt work well with mackie big knob passive controllers (the sound was very distorted) so i had to sent them back (but they were very decent for their price)

[@j_a_a]

I'd go with the E8 xt, my brother has the E8s and they are phenomenal, I've heard the rokit 8s aren't as neutral

[@sickprofessor]

​@@j_a_a Thank you for your advice. I realized that the E8 XT are pretty big, dont know if thats good for my use. Im only about 3 - 3,5 feet away from the speakers, is that a problem? I heard from a friend who has the E8s that they have a listening position cca 5-7 feet from speakers which is impossible for me to do. I read that the E8 XT has better sweetspot so based on it i suppose that i dont need to be far away from them (so may be 3-3,5 would be ok with them, but i dont know for sure :( ) I also came across the Focal Alpha 65 which are smaller boxes and people love them for their amazing sound and also the build quality is better . What do you think? Thanks

[@j_a_a]

@@sickprofessor the E8s I heard we're about 3.5 feet away from the listening position, and we're positioned sub-optimaly in the room, but they still were the best speakers I've ever listened to. They are very big monitors, but they play very deep, the XT gets down to 35hz, you pretty much don't need a sub. That bass extension will only really come with displacement, or a very well thought out enclosure. The only thing you may be disappointed with is the size. I'm not well informed on other monitors in that price range, so I can't help you want further lol, hope all goes well!

5xt , rokit 5 g4 or LP6??

[@BreakdanceMusic]

LP6 have lack in higher freq. I have 5XT, 7XT, M-Audio BX5 and LP6 for comparison right now and definitely will return LP6 and M-Audio :( Can't choose between 5xt and 7xt, 7xt have nice base but 5xt are more detailed.

[@marinmardari]

@@BreakdanceMusic is the self noise of the e5xt audible from 1m distance or they are quiet?

[@staryshow]

[@traslasilla]

in a good way or in a bad way? I'm kinda new to recognizing mid freqs.

What is the point to compare 2 set of speakers while listening on a third sound system( n my case audio Technica headphone) that have their own sound signature.....

[@slavzabicki265]

Comparing to the reference speakers both sound off to me

[@bongb56]

What monitor that you like?

[@slavzabicki265]

@@bongb56 the ones he uses in his studio. Btw I went to a local store where you can compare almost all big brands and I have found two winners in the category up to 1k. Yamaha hs8 (hp7 pretty good too) and kali lp6. The e5s and e5 xts sounded really average with too much highs and weird lows. But that's just my opinion

@@slavzabicki265 how can you compare 5" to 7" and 8" .. compare Presonus E8 XT, to HS7 or HS8, and you will see how XT kill Yamaha, by far ..

Presonus for the win, KRK is overhyped

[@LostInDistance]

Far from overhyped. KRK’s are popular for good reasons.

[@research8564]

@@LostInDistance KRK's are popular for those who like overhyped sound(Boosted bass and high's), however this time KRK did things right by making their curve more neutral plus DSP control. Great job KRK> Still I would trust the Presonus more for mixing, maybe.
