5″ Studio Reference Monitor

Building on the legacy of our renowned nEar studio monitors and upgrading our popular aktiv 05, the nEar i5 near field reference monitor sets a new standard for entry-level users seeking professional-level 5″ near field monitoring speakers.

This DSP-based Class-D studio monitor features an ultra-flat low frequency response, a newly designed silk dome tweeter (40W powered), and a special 5″ woofer (50W powered) made from selected sustainable sturdy paper fibers. These components deliver an unparalleled punch in the low-mid frequency range, offering a response unheard of in this class.

The unique Character selection switch provides a smooth Mix & Listen setting or a precise Reference sound.

The nEar i5 is yet another milestone in the ESI studio monitor legacy. The nEar i7 and nEar i8 options of this series are also available.
