Q: Do these go well as Surrounds w/ arc??
A: Yes! The reviews have been coming in now and these are an amazing addition to the Sonos Arc for a home theater. FWIW, there is some incorrect info being reported by some tech outlet regarding the Era 300s as rear surrounds and how many channels the system has. According to Sonos directly, the Arc becomes a 7.x.4 setup with the two Era 300s. The side firing drivers of the Arc work with the outward firing drivers of the Era 300s to create the L & R side surrounds and the inward facing driver (and I believe the forward one, too) are the rear surround L & R. All drivers are used, even without Atmos audio and it’s supposed to create a much greater overall immersion bubble. If you have a sub, it’s a 7.1.4 system and two subs make it 7.2.4. One or two reviews said that even with two subs is remains a 7.1.4 system but this is incorrect. When we see system info like that (x.x.x), here is the specific breakdown of what each one describes: 1st digits: ear level speakers (in number channels), 2nd digit: number of subs, 3rd digit: number of height channels. The second number that described subs is unlike the first and third which tell the number of channels. Because bass is omnidirectional, there are no “stereo” bass channels at this point (where they have two different tracks for bass). It just wouldn’t work well give the way that bass audio moves through space. So, that number describes the number of subs in the system. FWIW, the Beam G2 is also compatible with the Era 300s. According to Sonos, it too becomes a 7.x.4 channel system. The Era 300s add two actual height channels to the virtual Atmos height channels in the Beam itself.
A: Sadly not at this moment, but since ordering the Era 300 and setting up as surrounds compared to the one sl it is night and day! I was blown away how much crisp the sound is compared to the Sonos one sl. Do keep in mind that when sounds plays, the center channel of the era 300 will be disable by default due to how the arc is treated as ur center channels. I have yet to try music from Spotify or Sonos radio but will try this weekend! Hope this helps!
Q: are these rechargeable like the sonos move?
A: No. These are not rechargeable and will need to be plugged into power at all times. The Era 300 does support Bluetooth now, so you can stream music wirelessly or using the Sonos app with Wi-Fi to stream with a compatible music service.
Q: Can it handle rain and sunny weather
A: These are not outdoor speakers, so that would not be smart
A: You can only run 1 set of Sonos speakers . Remove the One SL’s , install the Era 300’s as your new surrounds and put your One SL’s in another room for playing music . The cords on the Era 300 speakers are permanently attached and are for a standard 120V outlet .
A: Yes, there are built in mics for voice assistant.
A: They will be available to preorder Tuesday the 14th!

I put two Sonos Era 300s in my room — one on the left, one on the right — thinking it would just be “extra nice sound.” Incorrect. What I built was a fully immersive sonic event. Music doesn’t play anymore — it materializes. Vocals float dead center like the artist is standing between the speakers asking if I’m emotionally okay. Drums punch from the sides, bass rolls through the room, and random sounds appear behind me just to remind me these speakers are in charge now. Then I watched a movie. Huge mistake… because now I can’t go back. Explosions actually move through the room. Footsteps don’t just sound close — they walk past you. Dialogue is so clear it feels like the actors rented space in my bedroom. I caught myself looking around during scenes like, “Wait… was that behind me?” (It was. Thanks, spatial audio.) It genuinely feels like a home theater without the mess of wires, receivers, or selling your soul to cable management. Just press play and suddenly you’re in a cinema… wearing sweatpants. The stereo separation is wild. Left is LEFT. Right is RIGHT. Every sound knows exactly where it belongs and refuses to mix with the wrong crowd. Downsides: • Regular speakers are ruined forever • I now rewatch movies “for the sound” • My neighbors are definitely aware of every action scene Final verdict: If you want your bedroom to double as a concert hall and a movie theater, two Sonos Era 300s will absolutely do it — and then flex about it. 10/10. Would buy again. Would apologize to neighbors later.

The ERA 300 add nice surround sound to my setup which includes the ARC Ultra Soundbar and Sub 4. I installed them close to the ceiling height, so the option to mount them upside down to make the best use of their acoustics is very useful. I used the SONOS brackets but I think the aftermarket options have the same functionality at a lower price point. The wireless sound connection makes it easy to “plug and play”, using the SONOS app which is pretty user-friendly. When using them to play music from Apple Music app (not through the AppleTV box), they deliver a nice crisp powerful sound. There’s no need to change operating modes, the SONOS app adjusts itself accordingly depending on the device input (TV or Music source),

Another noteworthy feature is the built-in microphone, which enables hands-free calling. The speaker picks up voices clearly, and the call quality is exceptional. This functionality has been particularly useful during conference calls or when I want to have a hands-free conversation with friends and family. Overall, I highly recommend this Bluetooth speaker to anyone in search of an excellent audio experience.
