I have (2) ERA 300's paired with Sub Mini in my workout room / basement. I was looking at traditional passive speakers with an amp and came across the Sonos ERA 300's. I went to BestBuy to listen to them and was sold. This was not a low cost set-up, but lower cost than going with the passive alternative. The sound quality is very rich and I was surprised to hear sounds and notes that I’ve not heard before when playing the same songs through other speakers, headphones, etc., Very Pleased!! There is plenty of volume available which is great for certain music types. I do like that each speaker within the ERA 300 has a dedicated amplifier. I’ve been streaming Apple Music through the Sonos app flawlessly. I especially like this “Heavy Rotation” option.
The music I listen to varies and includes Classic Rock, Progressive, Hip Hop, etc...and the base from the Mini Sub scales in volume nicely between the genres. Songs with Dolby Atmos really fill the space of my basement. I would also include that the set up using the app is very easy.

We set up a single Era 300 in our master bedroom, and it is an amazing addition to our sound system. The sound fills the room very well, and sounds exceptional.
We previously had a Move in our master bedroom, and the Era 300 is significantly fuller for the larger size room. We’re glad to have made the swap and now use the Move in a smaller room — but even the Move sounded good in our bedroom which is a testament to the performance of the Era 300.
We love the Sonos ecosystem, as the quality of sounds is excellent, it provides seamless audio across rooms, and the built in voice assistant is great!
Definitely would recommend the Era 300 for larger rooms or as part of a high end surround sound system!

If your looking for the best sounding Dolby Atmos sound-bar setup look no further. Adding these speakers makes it punch like a custom built system. I had the Sony HTA7000 bar with the biggest sub and rears with the height channel but returned it because some vocals sounded tinty at times as well the spatial sound just didn’t seem the best for the price point. Fast forward to the Sonos Arc, 2 subs and the Era 300’s and I’m finally pleased. Hits well about the expensive price tag. Almost feels like your at an IMAX movie. Could probably do with just one sub though.

This small form factor packs a punch. I stream audio in the Sonos app from Apple Music and it sounds incredible. Some Atmos mixes give songs a new life. Setup was a breeze. You can choose to auto set up or you can wave your phone around the room for calibration. I reccomend this speaker, especially if you already have Sonos.

The Sonos Era 300 speakers are phenomenal ! I have had a Sonos ARC for 2 years along with a sub and 2 Sonos One surround speakers and was quite pleased with the sound but have been wanting Dolby Atmos . When I was informed of the new Era 300 Dolby surround speakers by a BestBuy email , it was time to stop in and hear the complete system at my local store . It sounded amazing , even in that huge store . I purchased a pair of the Era 300’s and after setting them up for my theater room I streamed a favorite Dolby Atmos movie and couldn’t believe how incredible the experience was . Sound was coming from all different directions making me feel like I was actually part of the action ! I cannot say enough how phenomenal these speakers sound , except to say that they are the best upgrade that you could ever make to your Sonos system .

We can’t sing enough praise for these speakers. We bought these Era 300 to replace a pair of Sonos 1’s in our living room. We had the 1’s paired with our Arc to make it a surround sound system. We already have a pair of Sonos 5’s but they are just too big for our living room. I wanted to keep the Fives in the den just for my music. The Era 300’s are the perfect size and match Fives in sound.
We noticed the sound difference right away with our TV shows, but blew us away watching John Wick series. We also play video games from our Living Room TV. We were amazed how much background sounds we were missing with our Sonos 1’s.
My only complaint about the speakers is the $449 price. Thank goodness Best Buy had open box sale on these speakers. At $399 or less is the perfect price for these speakers. Luckily only the boxes were damaged and the speakers were not damaged. Sonos does a great job of packaging them. I highly recommend these speakers especially when the go on sale for less than $400.

The SONOS Era 300 speakers and 100 speaker are outstanding! They were relatively easy to connect and sync. I am enjoying quality sound where ever I placed them in my house.

I bought the Ultra Arc Soundbar, and it sounds amazing. I had to go back the next day to get the Era 300s, 2 of them to add surround sound, full spatial experience, and without a doubt, it's such an amazing sound for movies and especially for music. I also got the Subwoofer 4 or Sub 4 and that escalated the experience a higher caliber.

I had been using a pair of ERA100'S for my surrounds till I purchased a pair or ERA300's. Although the ERA100 is a great small speaker, I use them now in the bedroom, these 300's brings my listening of TV and music to the next level. I enjoy a more room filling sound and couldn't be happier.

I’ve been in the Sonos ecosystem for the last 12 years and love it. I’ve owned era 300’s since their launch and have been upgrading all of my older speakers with them because they sound so good as home theater surrounds or as a stereo pair for music. Just picked up these last 2 from Best Buy “open box” for the garage and now I’m set for a bit.

Got these two speakersw to finish off my Sonos Dolby Atmos home theater system. By purchasing the Era 300 (instead of the Era 100) I get the complete Atmos effect while streaming movies with my LG OLED TV. These speakers are working with the Sonos Arc Ultra and everything sounds great.

I was looking for speakers to complete my dolby surround. Was not looking to buy tradional 5.2.4 speakers. So I had sonos arc and sub. I was just looking for Sonos Era 100s. But the representative from bestbuy showed me Era 300s. So when I connect them wirh Sonos sytem, they sounded so good. Filled my living area with atmos.
They are expensive but with great sound.

I do like the Sonos speakers. I do wish they could be a little louder but it may be that I still don't know how to completely use them or it may be incorrect placement of speakers.

The speaker build and sound quality are amazing definitely top of the line, but with everything sonos they make it a little less enjoyable to use, by restricting it to their terrible software/app. Also the lack of ports on the speaker make it difficult to use with other products. Was hoping to hook to my record player and after a lot of research and more money spent I was able to make that happen, but it wasn't simple like it should have been.
