3:42 that candle is burning your monitor lol
*Electric candle
HS3 sound way better. I’m using mine with some HS8s and a sub. The HS3s have a more “transparent” sound to me. Whatever works for you in the end. A friend of mine doesn’t like my Yamaha setup yet he does great work with cheap KRKs. Right tool for the right person for the right job. I used to mix only on NS-10s. Now with the new Yamaha monitors I have less ear fatigue.
The correct answer is HS4 for small, portable. HS7 with sub for home studio. HS3 lacks so much and isn't physically smaller or lighter enough to justify existing. HS8 are liked and popular because they have fuller bass but you can get that from a subwoofer and the HS7 has better critical mids.
Yes the HS4 for only $20 more than the HS3 is a no brainer
It depends on the usage. This model of Presonus is a very good cheaper option for movie and music listening and even for very amateur home studio mixing/recording. BUT Yamaha is a more expensive and better choice for home studio.
Great video, very useful to make a decision. What are the feet isolators? Much appreciated.
Where the magic happens is when you connect the Eris monitors to a Presonus interface. That's when you hear the clarity....they're made for each other. That's how I have mine and it makes a huge difference. Presonus iTwo, $90 plus the Eris $90, that's $180 for great clarity!
Still like my JBL 104bt and won’t be ‘upgrading’ anytime soon.
Hi Edward, thank for the comparison. How do you use the 5-inch woofer in the setup? Do you connect the woofer to the speakers? what m-audio model?
What stands do You use to your monitors?
Eris has a warm sound output, comparing the price id choose the eris by the way i love the test song, where can i listen it from>>??
ive had a set for 5-6 years now and honeslty can say very good monitors even comparitivley to HS5.
Hi can i ask you why may MR4 edifier monitoring speaker sound high using unbalanced RCA to 3.5mm cable but after replace to balance TRS 1/4 male to male the sound was low why?
UNA CAUSA PUEDE SER LA RESISTENCIA EN OHMS DE TU CABLEADO, PERO RECUERDA SON MONITORES DE CAMPO CERCANO ESTÁN HECHOS PARA ESCUCHARSE CLARO Y CONCISO, NO FUERTE O ALTO.
can you play more than one input at a time with any of these speakers?
You should have added the krk goaux 3 in this
Eris is better
Have Presonus Erises 3.5BT Mk1 + Presonus Sub8, need nothing more :)
Are the Eris 3.5 a good option to add better sound to a cheap TV? Or should I search for something bigger?
yes
Yamaha - the most dependable, predictable and in unlikely scenarios - repairable. Yamaha is an excellent company all round.
Где взять такие подставки подскажите??
Would you recommend any of these for dj purposes?
Sir, I am a big fan of you. and I need your help, Sir, I have listened to Ghazals, Bhajans and Old Bollywood songs So That I have to buy a monitor for that. But I want very rich sound, in which every instrument and singer's voice can be heard real and my room is also not acoustically treated. Which monitor should I buy according to my taste and in what size? My Room Size is 12×12 Plz Sir, your guidance is very important for me.
Thanks in Advance

RCF Ayra Pro 5 ☝️😉👍
@@jihamiya5755 Hye
yamaha has nice sound
If you have the budget, just go for the HS5, or even HS8. The HS3 are double the price of the Presonus e 3.5, but they're not doubling in quality. I have the Presonus e 3.5 first gen, and the Yamaha HS8. They are worth the price. The HS3 could have been cheaper to justify the price 👍. Thank you for the video ❤
Yamaha more durable
@@reception.hotelpacific6719 you wrong, durable Same
Edifier MR4 has been the killer of Presnous Eris junk this whole time, though few folks ever find out: th-cam.com/video/pZqLVCBXgyw/w-d-xo.html
First time I heard those gen1 Eris in a local store, just too much coloration, distortion, and harshness, even with EQ trying to tame it all. I was really just polishing a turd trying to improve it with EQ, no thanks.
@@Jason75913 I'll give them a try
@@Jason75913Same i used that too MR4 for the price 😅
Love my Eris. Yamaha's does look super sexy though!
The eris has better low end
I prefer the hs3 from what I hear, it's my preference for how the bass sounds
Does the Yamaha HS3 have a loud volume?
I bought HS4 and it doesn't sound as good as Eris3.5.
The hard kick sound annoys me because there is no bass.
i dont have that gen of the 3.5s but my 3.5s i like better than the hs3's..... but my hs7's and hs5's i like way better than the other presonus monitors.
WTF are you talking about as to the outp[ut of the tweeters? 3/4 " compared to 1" tweeters?
Los presonus eris e3.5 no son unos altavoces de estudio, dejemos eso bien claro, están orientados a multimedia.
그래서 소리가 더 좋게들립니다
I love yall to death but I don’t see 10 less hz as a reason for $220 more. I use the Erisnfor mixing right now and they are good for two reasons.
1. If your mix only sounds good on $2000 speakers, when Johnny plays it through Bluetooth at the pool and it sounds like death metal instead of indie alternative, you’ll get it.
2. The Eris is a fender brand. I don’t like fender guitars, but I do love that they make their quality products accessible to people like us, musicians, looking for the ability to put this in a mix. $150 for BT is a steal.
I own both the Eris 5 and the Eris 8's and I had the 3.5's prior to the 5's I find them to be good for general audio listening purposes, but lack alot of clarity and detail if you are someone who is trying to mix on them.The Yamaha HS3 for sure would be my pick as well if I needed a small set of reference monitors for music production, as even though they lack the low end you get so much better range and color from the drivers.
You are right. Yamaha is good for monitors but not for music listening.

@@zoozeonja158 Upgrade to Edifier MR4
Presonus sound like trash
I just bought a pair of Eris 3.5's and I have a question since this is my very first pair of studio monitors ever since I started making music. The monitors turn to distort/clip when I have my volume cranked up both on my pc and the studio monitors themselves. I expected them to handle the loud volume from what I have seen and heard but this has been my experience after testing them. So I just wanted to find out if it is normal because I have been thinking that something is wrong. I use an Aux to RCA cable by the way to connect them and I use a MacBook Pro late 2011 of which I noticed that MacBooks have more gain/volume than other laptops.
I wish to own Yamaha, 😢🤦♀️
I think yamaha has very flat sound... But for listening song you can go with eris... But for mixing mastering obviously yamaha is a better choice
I bought two different pairs of monitor speakers. One is the PreSonus Eris 3.5 as live monitors for my mobile DJ set and a couple of Swissonic A308 for music production. On the one hand, the Eris are perfect for my intended use, as something can always break with mobile things, and on the other hand, the A308 are great studio monitors, as the bandwidth from 38 Hz to 20 kHz ideally covers the entire audible range.
The Presonus (even if considering the youtube 'cuts') seem to appear slightly 'fuller' of low frequencies, or in any case colored.. the Yamaha seem a bit harder, or 'if we want', more neutral in perfect Yanaha style.
This is my humble opinion.. a warm greeting from Italy
Why are you listening to such corny music
Thanks for the comparison, I had to send back my Eris 3.5 due to excessive boomy bass at specifically 130hz, I can hear the Eris much more bassy in your comparison. I see internet chat about this issue. Looks like HS3 for me. Measurement of the Bass response here th-cam.com/video/YLWTnt6QJWA/w-d-xo.html
Got first gen Presonus Eris 3.5bt, it took two years to start noises and then burn resistors due to internal design flaw where Presonus packed parts that heat too much too close. I need some new ones, and even due to that malfunction, I'm still considering for the 2nd gen. Bt not sure...
เสียง Yamaha ดีกว่า
My question is whether adjusting the highs and lows on the PreSonus makes it behave more like a flat monitor, similar to Yamaha.
The presonus sounds more punchy
The yamahas are airier and seem to have a wider stereo “field” or spectrum.
Listen closely youll hear the stereo field is widwr
Can you make comparison of barefoot footprint 03 and other speakers
i've been using eris for around 6 month and it's amazing, can't get better for the price
The first generation of Presnous broke after I used it for more than two years. I was so disappointed.
And now together with EDIFIER MR4...
They sound practically the same. Not worth the higher price to my ears.
How can you hear the sound to do a comparison from your speakers 🤣 it's not possible
@@paulmoss6759 I know. I'm basing it off what I'm hearing through my krk rokits. That's the best I can hope for from a TH-cam video.
Yamaha is def a brighter sound @@paulmoss6759
I'm biased, but they sound different. It requires a train ear to quick get it, but they are.
whats the difference between e3.5 and 3.5 for the eris?
Where did you buy these studio monitor stands?
Do yo have vocals sounds on splice? Seams i recognised your voice!
they're not even in the same price range
These presonus eris 3.5. are my second monitors.. previous were muddy piece of s..t. With these, i really enyoy the sound, withour having any worry about eq them. I imagine that yamahas are even better, would buy yamahas if i had that much money. I live in a small space. I am happy with presonuses.
I have both Presonus 3.5 and Yamaha hs5, I prefer the Presonus for my needs.
I'm definitely going with the HS3s
smart the PreSonus has lots of quality issues whereas other brands are more expensive they don't come with a headache like PreSonus does (from my experience )
@@holland1Does the Yamaha HS3 have a loud volume?
I have Genelec 8010 AP and i never missed a bigger woofer. Maybe because of my 7040 subwoofer xD. I love these little speakers
Neither, go Kali
I don't remind myself anything cheaper and smaller than LP-UNF from them (which are at least 1/3 more expensive than HS3 iirc). Still, a good option.
You litterly help me out every video bro thank I litterly save your vids for future preference
I'm so glad these videos are of value to you. Thank you for watching!
@@EdwardSmithMusic np keep it up I’m a up coming music artist to and I want the best quality items that are in my budget thank you
Don't buy either - or any other Speaker Monitors. Home Recordists don't need them imo. As a home recordist for 15 years I wasted my hard earned $$ on studio monitors only to find that using 2 different studio quality Headphones for mixing is equally as good plus is .... much cheaper and a big space saver. Edward's reviews on Headphones are excellent imo - just get 2 of them and forget monitor speakers :)
With the time you'll be losing you hearing, headphones are supposed to use in short periods of time.
Yeah no headphones are the worst
Bro you need speakers you need monitors to monitor the complet stereo field and FEEL your music. Headphones is not the same effect because it goes directly into your ear. Studio monitors create the stereo “field” which is the field you want to create and mix in
Say goodbye to your ears also u need to consider how will ur music sound in the world I mean like in the room which will be totally different from. Headphones
Use speakers and cans. Speakers for stereo positioning and tonality. Cans for dynamics and leveling decisions. Please don't ever give audio advice ever again.
HS3 Bass weak..
yes, but Yamahas have flat response. Eris has beautiful but absolutely colored sound. So in terms of mixing the presonus is trash. For casual listening they're great!
Great review! However, that's a headphone output, not input😊
