Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Sonos Era 300 sounds great – like, seriously, awesome – with all types of music. Over the years, I have had portable and tabletop speakers from multiple high-end manufacturers. The Sonos Era 300 is the best sounding wireless speaker I’ve used. There are drivers directing the sound forward, left, right, and up. This creates sound that, with the right recording mastered in Dolby Atmos Music, actually succeeds in delivering a sense of dimension to the music that I have never heard before from a single speaker. I can imagine the vocals are here, the guitar is there, the drums are over there, backup vocals, etc. It is a feeling of immersion that is very cool and very impressive. With the potential for multiple devices streaming music to the speaker (everybody’s got a phone), my household has historically relied on Bluetooth for easy connection. I have wanted to try a Sonos bookshelf or tabletop speaker, but until now they have been WiFi-only. Bluetooth on the Sonos Era 300 changed that, and it was time to take the plunge. Wow! The Sonos Era 300 impresses from the start. It has a pleasing heft and premium packaging that exudes quality before the box is even opened. Unboxing reveals just the necessities: The Sonos Era 300 speaker, power cord, and some documents. Setup was painless. Download the Sonos app and plug in the speaker. Enter your WiFi password and wait for the speaker to connect to the network. An update was downloaded and applied. Since then, it’s been nothing but beautiful music. The Sonos app is necessary for connection to your network and keeping your speaker up to date. It can be used to control multiple Sonos speakers, and you can group them however you like to enjoy the music as you move through your day. It supports a variety of music services and centralizes playback from a single app. Voice control is supported via onboard microphones. There is an on/off switch on the rear of the unit to enable/disable the microphones. The mics must be enabled while doing the Trueplay setup and can be disabled once setup is complete. I am privacy-minded and appreciate this inclusion. Trueplay tuning fine-tunes the audio to the speaker’s surroundings by sensing how sound bounces off the surfaces in your room. Perhaps my room didn’t require much adjustment? I did some before and after comparisons and couldn’t discern the difference. That’s okay. It sounds wonderful. The capacitive touch controls are easy to use and logically laid out. There is a lateral trough/depression in the top front of the case that guides your finger and makes it easy to adjust volume with just a touch or slide. All of the expected controls are present. The Sonos Era 300 is always powered on. I was initially surprised and a little irritated that there is not a dedicated power switch and the ability to turn off the speaker. That feeling passed within 24 hours as I quickly realized I no longer need to get up and go turn the speaker on. I just launch my music app, choose the Sonos speaker, and enjoy the excellent sound. It turns out that I prefer connecting to the Sonos Era 300 over WiFi. I never would’ve guessed. I know I started this by stating that I was waiting for Bluetooth functionality, but it didn’t take me long to realize that I can walk away from the speaker, phone in my pocket, get halfway across the house and still have the rock-solid connection to my speaker. Bluetooth connections are subject to interference and drops the farther you get from the speaker. Additionally, when playing music over Wi-Fi, notifications sound on the phone and not over the speaker; I think this is a big improvement over a Bluetooth connection where notifications interrupt the music. I also love that I can use voice dictation while music is playing over Wi-Fi. If I try to do this while streaming over Bluetooth, the music is muted. A simpler way of saying it: I can listen to music and continue to use my phone normally. Product literature says that this speaker can be used in a stereo pair or in a surround sound system mated with a Sonos Arc or Beam. With sound like this, I cannot wait to try it! The Sonos Era 300 is the best sounding wireless speaker I’ve ever used. Highly recommended.

The Sonos Era 300 is an impressive smart speaker that’s been designed to take advantage of spatial audio. Even if your favorite songs don’t have a spatial audio version, the Sonos Era 300 still delivers a rich wide enveloping sound backed by a satisfying punchy bass. The price of admission it’s a pricey one, but for the type of sound quality coming out of this mid-size speaker in my opinion it’s well worth it. Coming in with 6 drivers (2 woofers and 4 tweeters) that have been arranged to provide an expansive soundstage. Right off the bat, I noticed how rich the music sounded and the bass not expecting it to be punchy like the way it hit. The highs are bright and the bass has some strong depth to it that doesn’t overpower everything else. The quality of music coming out of a single Era 300 is impressive can’t imagine how much better it would be with 2 of them paired together. If you happen to have a Sonos Dolby Atmos soundbar it can easily be integrated to provide a true theater-like experience. Even on a Bluetooth connection it still sounds amazing. You won’t be able to listen to any spatial audio music over Bluetooth. For the best audio quality, Wi-Fi is the way to go. Sonos does sell a line adapter that will allow you to plug in audio devices via an aux jack over the USB C port. The USB C port also supports an ethernet adapter if you prefer a much more stable connection. For set up there wasn’t much to it besides the plugin in the power cord and download of the Sonos app. Not only does the app provide firmware updates, and equalizer options but a neat feature called quick tuning that will tune in your speaker using the built-in mics. IOS users have access to advanced tuning that uses the mics from the IOS device instead. The Sonos app also allows you to set up voice assistance like Alexa or Sonos voice assistance. Unfortunately, there’s no support for Google Assistance or Siri. If you have any privacy concerns there’s a mic switch in the back that kills the power to the mic. The app also gains you access to some streaming music services like Sonos Radio, TuneIn, and iHeart Radio. You also have the option to add additional music services like Apple Music, Spotify, and many more. The app is not perfect though. When I added my YouTube Music account none of the music showed up. Even after multiple time removing and adding my account, I could not get it to work. For my Spotify account, I did not have any issues. Some of the shortcomings I’ve experienced are AirPlay connection dropping and no audio even if it shows currently playing with the volume not being on mute. For Android users, you’re left at the mercy of the Sonos app for Wi-Fi streaming. If your choice of music streaming is not compatible with the Sonos app you will have to fall back on Bluetooth for playback. Of these issues like drop connection, I’m not too worried about them since a firmware update can take care of it. What I would like to see in a future update is support for Cast Streaming and Google Voice assistant. Overall the Sonos Era 300 is an amazing-sounding speaker that will quickly have you falling in love with it. More songs are being remastered with Spatial Audio so sooner or later there’s a high chance your favorite song will be. Wi-Fi has become my favorite way of streaming music wireless due to its reliability and overall higher audio quality. The door is wide open for new features to be added via firmware updates. The future is bright for the Sonos Era 300.

The Sonos Era 300 is raising the bar for what is possible from a speaker. Standalone or paired, it surpasses expectations and is really a sound to be reckoned with. This company really gives off the impression that they are customer-driven as they provide the whole package, quite literally. I will be the first to admit, I am a sucker for good packaging, I feel that companies that take the time to add this attention to detail really care about the customers. The Sonos has, by far, the best unboxing experience I have experienced yet. Getting the speaker out was just so fun and exciting because of their innovative box design. It added an awe factor I was not expecting. As for the set-up, they are not kidding when they state it is “bewilderingly easy.” Plug it in, download the app, and it is good to go. If you have an iPhone, you can find the speaker automatically when playing music through Airplay. One aspect that befuddled me was the orientation of the speaker. I thought I had it set according to the diagram, but the volume kept lowering when I was playing music and I could not figure out why. Come to find I placed it on its side and the speaker was aware of this. It will tell you on the app as well if you have it incorrectly placed, so heed the warning if you do the same. The app allows you to do many things, for example access the EQ, stream Dolby Atmos compatible music, link another speaker or subwoofer, and calibrate the sound using Trueplay. Trueplay uses the microphone on the speaker and a smartphone to detect how the sound bounces off the walls and furniture to calibrate the best sound for the space it is placed in. The sound on this speaker is incredible. The base is deep and rich while maintaining the integrity of the sound as a whole. I could feel the bass vibrating on my living room wall that is on the opposite side of the speaker without it being obnoxiously loud, which was both perplexing and amazing. The drivers really do add spatial dimension to the sound, giving the spectacular experience of being surrounded by the sound. I have a variety of music genres that interest me and they were each played beautifully by this speaker. Guitar tracks really pop, I can hear the chords and strings separate from the other sounds. Piano tracks, EDM, rock, reggaeton, Spanish rock, pop, rap, hip-hop, etc., it all just stands out with such vividness. This speaker really lets me listen to sounds that I rarely hear in songs due to inadequate speakers and headphones. It is mesmerizing. A nice addition to the speaker is that I can Airplay music while still streaming and listening to something separately on my device. Also, it has a speaker for use with a voice assistant. Sonos has its own voice control program, as well as compatibility with Alexa. The volume is a long strip on the speaker that uses touch to sense your finger dragging the volume up or down. It has a Bluetooth button and a voice control on/off lever. It has a few other buttons that are touch-sensitive, and these are for play/pause, forward, back, and voice assistant. A few things to note: This Sonos only has USB-C as a form of physical connection; therefore it cannot connect to the tv or other device via optical cable, HDMI, audio, or RCIA. It is also necessary to have the Sonos app to stream music, at least on Apple devices, even when using Bluetooth. This is not an issue for the tv though, which I connected via Bluetooth. Overall, this speaker provides a mind-blowing sound experience that has yet to be topped in my books. I would recommend this to any audiophile who wants to get the most out of their music using a standalone speaker.

This is one hefty speaker for the size. Filled with a bunch of speakers and amps. Setting it up is pretty simple once you have the app installed. You could just go straight to using the USB-C aux or Bluetooth, but the real advantages come in once the Sonos Era 300 is set up on WiFi and you get other options in the application. This speaker will fill any room with crisp, clear and loud music. Just by default it sounds amazing. Though the setting is buried several layers in the menus of the app on Android, you can control bass/treble and enable the Trueplay Tuning which plays a series of tones to help optimize the sound for the space you have the speaker. Though subtle, pending the environment, it can help give a better surround effect. Though I didn’t find any music to test out the Dolby Atmos, I could tell it was definitely taking advantage of the multiple drivers. With it streaming straight from WiFi, you don’t get the interruptions you may normally get with using Bluetooth on your phone. However, you can still control all of the music with your phone, with the touch sensitive controls or voice. The Sonos voice is simple and straight to the point. If you want more control like a smart home device, then you can enable Alexa and control more. Even though the music is streamed straight on the speaker, it still wants to keep the application running on your phone, which I found kind of odd as the speaker still allows control. Overall I find this speaker to be a lot more than just your typical smart speaker. Unless you listen to specific songs on Apple or Amazon Unlimited, there are only a few that make direct use of Dolby Atmos. But, the multiple speakers and surround effect of all music is what fills the space more than I have ever heard from a single speaker.

The Sonos Era 300 is different from other bluetooth speakers I have owned. It arrived beautifully packaged in a nice box and then wrapped in a protective cloth. I had a bit of trouble connecting my Era 300 at first - but was finally able to get it connected after doing a factory reset and trying again. You have to have a mobile device or tablet connected to a wifi network to be able to connect your speaker and they have to be on the same network. Once you are connected and you label what room you will place your speaker - it will read the room to get the acoustics to automatically set the correct sound for the room. The speaker itself is about 10 inches wide and just over 6 inches tall and weighs just under 10 pounds. You can connect your services like Apple Music, Pandora, or Spotify to play from your device or use the Sonos Radio that comes with it. The best part of this is that you do not get interrupted by calls or notifications. You can press a button and stream directly form any Bluetooth device. It also has the option to connect a computer or other accessories by using an aux cable and the Sonos line in adapter. You can connect multiple speakers to complete the sound in your home. You can use "Hey Sonos" voice control or use Alexa to as well. You can toggle the voice assistant on/off by pressing the speech bubble on top of the speaker. If you choose not to use voice controls - you can turn it off completely by switching a button off on the back of the speaker. This is a moden looking speaker with a robust app. It's a nice addition to my home and definitly recommend.

The Era 300 is the smallest standalone Sonos speaker to have an upward firing speaker, enabling Atmos and “Spatial” audio content. On its own, the Era 300 provides fantastic stereo audio and impressive spatial audio from a single speaker. While I roughly knew the dimensions before it arrived, the 10.25” W x 6.5” H x 7.25” D hour glass didn’t quite blend in as hoped. After finding an acoustically engineered location determined by my wife who was not impressed with the size, I put the chonky fella in our dining room. After updating the Sonos app, I was able to easily set up and tune the speaker. It is nice that the Era can tune itself, which I thought provided a nice tune that was more convenient than the traditional TruePlay. Still, I opted to perform Trueplay so that I could wander around the room like a drunk wizard. I played various Apple Music spatial and stereo mixes to see how well it sounded compared to a smaller speaker like my HomePod and quickly realized they aren’t in the same category which is not that surprising considering the Era 300 is physically larger. Immediately I was impressed by the sound stage, which I found to be wide and balanced. I found the audio to be very clear and well defined even at lower volumes. If you were so inclined to push the drivers beyond a whisper you will find they are more than capable of filling the room with expansive, distortion free audio. The bass is rich and punchy but not over shadowing the mid-range. Though I found the audio mix usually to be good, it is great that Sonos provides an EQ to tune it to your liking. They even provide an adjustment for the height channel, which I initially found a little soft even for my dungeon like 8ft ceilings. While listening to spatial tracks, you find familiar songs produced to take advantage of the format for better or worse. Listening to Pink Floyd’s Us and Them, the Era 300 enveloped the space with rich details that brought out the individual instruments bringing the feeling of being in a larger room with the band. Fleetwod Mac’s iconic Landslide sounded incredible, layering acoustic and electric guitars with the Nick’s soulful voice carrying throughout. Of course my 3-year old daughter found the speaker faithfully reproduced the soundtrack to Encanto just as she remembered it yesterday. If you happened a second Era 300, you can stereo pair them or add them to an existing Arc setup for the complete 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos experience. Overall I am left impressed with what you get even considering the size, which it would take a stereo pair of any other brand smart speakers to compete. If you are looking for a single speaker setup or have the space for two, the quality and performance of the Era 300 is hard to beat.

The Sonos Era 300 has completely transformed my listening experience! The sound quality is absolutely phenomenal, with crisp highs, deep bass, and immersive 3D audio that fills the room perfectly. It’s like having a concert in my living room! The design is sleek and modern, fitting seamlessly with my home decor. Setting it up was incredibly easy, thanks to the intuitive Sonos app, and it connected to my existing system without any hassle.

I cannot even begin to describe how much I love my Sonos Era 300 speaker! This little gem has transformed my home audio experience and I am absolutely smitten with it. The sound quality is nothing short of phenomenal, delivering crisp highs, deep bass, and everything in between. The Dolby Atmos for music is the icing on the cake, enveloping me in an immersive audio experience that has to be heard to be believed. One of the best features of the Sonos Era 300 is its ease of connectivity. The speaker integrates seamlessly with the Sonos ecosystem, and I was able to set it up in mere minutes.

This incredible speaker offers unbeatable sound quality and an unparalleled audio experience. Don't hesitate - bring the magic of the Sonos Era 300 into your home today

I received the Sonos Era 300 black, It seems to be well built, sturdy, its physical appearance is a little unusual, like an hour glass look. It has a set of touch controls on the top panel, a USB-C port for line-in and ethernet ( optional adapters required), a Bluetooth toggle and a switch to physically disconnect the microphone on the back. Setting up the Era 300 is pretty simple, you’ll need to download the Sonos app to your phone and set up an account, from there, the app will look and see if there are any speakers to add. You’ll also need to log in to your audio services of choice. If you want to try spatial audio, you’ll need either Apple Music or Amazon Music Unlimited. You can search for and play music through the Sonos app, but there are also a bunch of options if you’d rather stick with the music apps you’re used to. It also has a feature called Trueplay, that tunes your speaker’s output based upon where it’s placed in your room, you can use this feature in the Sonos App. The Era 300 is a great speaker, It’s crisp, loud, and has lively bass. It's a loud, powerful speaker with deep bass. You can use it for multi-room audio with other Sonos speakers, and they can also be used as surround sound speakers with a Sonos soundbar. If you like using voice controls, you can also add a voice assistant to the Era 300, Setting up the Sonos assistant is a little easier than Alexa, because you don’t need to go linking your Amazon account. Overall, it is a good premium speaker that does a great job filling a room with sound!

I’ve been impressed by the quality of sound from this stand-alone streaming speaker. Excels at spatial audio but also sounds great reproducing “stereo” tracks. This has better clarity of voices and frequencies through the entire range than some other Sonos speakers (Move, One, Beam, e.g.). Everything sounds more accurately reproduced and less muddy or digitally sculpted than some Sonos products (see above). The bass response is impressive and fairly tight and clean. I tried pairing this with both the Sonos Sub Mini and Sonos Sub (Gen 3) — at separate times! — and neither sub added to the sonic experience. In fact, the Era 300 sounds much better by itself (including bass response), and I think this is because everything in its audio engineering and design is directed toward that use. I find it has plenty of oomph to fill a fairly large room well. I have it on the fireplace mantle in the corner of our 20’x20’ great room, and this speaker fills all of that just fine without straining. Oh, and I also like the distinctive and functional design/form of this speaker! Of course it’s got the great Sonos 2 app and Sonos interconnected audiosphere going for it. I recommend the Era 300.

This is the first Sonos product I've owned. I've resisted them, partly because I was under the impression that they work best when you have a whole fleet of them all over your house, but also because... well, it's not like there's no shortage of competition in this space. What could possibly be so special about a speaker that you can stream music to? So, now here I am ready to declare that the Era 300 is the best sound related anything in my entire house. I am in love. I love the odd shape of it. Love how it looks on my shelf. I love the app and how well everything works. And I love the sound. I really love the sound. This is not, however, my first forray into spatial audio. I've got a pretty great Dolby Atmos home theater setup with a dedicated sub and surrounds. I've listened to spatial audio music on that system a lot and it sounds good. But - I'm telling you - there's something better here with how Sonos has approached this speaker. For starters, I've never been to a concert and had a musician play music behind me. That's just not how live music works. So this notion of being in the center of an orchestra or something that you see in a lot of marketing related to spatial audio is kind of missing the point. I don't want to listen to music that way; it doesn't sound natural. And oh man does this speaker get that right. The best way I can describe it is that when listening to a really good example of a well-mixed spatial audio track it sounds as if music is coming from the entire wall. There is a height effect, yes, but it's not gonna sound like it's buzzing over your head or any of that nonsense. Instead, it takes the tune and gives the impression that there are musicians across a wide stage and maybe some of them are on risers. It's so wide I kind of can't believe it. Listen to those Beatles remasters. I've never heard those songs sound like they do on this speaker. And I don't mean that in an artificial way. It sounds different, but it sounds right. It sounds alive. I was blown away. You know what else is impressive? The box this comes in. Never ever seen a product come in a box that has a locking mechanism built into it. Really smart and makes it incredibly easy to open. The whole package reeks of premium thought and care. Ditto the app. I always, always dread the software side of electronics like this. Even if it works okay, most of them look like they were designed in 2006. (See: Sony's headphones connect app.) Well, not the Sonos app. I think it looks great and I had zero issues connecting every app I tried. Dolby Atmos is working both with Apple Music and Amazon Music Unlimited. SiriusXM works and sounds great in the app and has actually been more reliable than their own app, so far. TuneIn is there. Several others. Sonos even has their own streaming channels and playlists and they're not bad! You can search across all your connected apps and it's just all very easy to navigate. Don't want to use the Sonos app? No problem. AirPlay support has been flawless. Can even adjust the volume of the speaker with my iPhone's volume buttons. Anything I don't like? Yes. I have tried and hoped that I could use Sonos's own voice assistant reliably. I don't really love interacting with Alexa for a number of reasons, so I was happy to see an alternative. Unfortunately, it's just not too great at the moment. Asking it to play a specific album failed almost every time. Asking it to play something on Amazon music one time started playing something from Apple music. It's fine if you just want to tell it to play an artist or a genre, or need to raise/lower the volume and pause things. Other than that, it's not a competitive option. Second, it seems the line-in is proprietary only. I tried using my own USB-C to 3.5mm to connect my turntable, but could not get it to be recognized by the speaker. According to Sonos's website you have to use one of their adapters. That's too bad and for this price they should have at least included one in the box. That aside this thing is a keeper. I'm so much more excited about Dolby Atmos music than I was when it first launched. Everything sounds great, but this is where this speaker really shines.

Sonos Era 300 takes home audio to the next level, providing unparalleled spatial audio driven by six individual drivers that fill the room with an impressive experience. Upon opening the box, the build quality is apparent from the very beginning. Setup is completed with the Sonos app, which is available for iOS and Android. The Sonos app walks you through the process of setting up the Sonos Era 300, updating the firmware and setting up your account that allows you to connect to online music services, such as Apple Music. You can connect to the speaker with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a line-in adapter. The Sonos Era 300 supports Dolby Atmos and can be setup as an individual speaker or paired with another Sonos Era 300 to provide an even more impressive experience. If you're looking for an impressive speaker that will take your audio experience to the next level, look no further than the Sonos Era 300. In addition to pairing two Sonos Era 300 speakers together, you can add the Sonos Beam or Arc soundbar and use your Sonos system to deliver incredible surround sound while watching TV or movies.

The Sonos Era 300 is a remarkable speaker with very crisp and clear sound. When I first tried setting up the Sonos Era 300 Bluetooth speaker using the Android app I could not get it to work on my Galaxy S10 plus. I still do not know why because luckily I have another Android phone thatworked just fine and I went through the set up which was very intuitive. I am not sure why it has to be so complex but with a little bit of technical saviness and the ability to interpret the English language made it easy. Once I got it connected to WIFI and then connected to my Android phone I added YouTube music and went to a playlist I had made and immediately upon listening to part of the first song I was so excited I just had to get my wife to come listen with me. We sat together and listened to that whole playlist of songs and were very impressed. The Sonos Era 300 nade listening to music so enjoyable we could not resist and that was not even with High Defintion music or Dolby atmos. I can not wait to get into that. Now the problem is I immediately started thinking of building a surround sound system with Sonos speakers. I am thinking the newest subwoofer the Sonos Sub Gen 3 along with the Sonos Arc Soundbar, one more Era 300 speaker and two Era 100 speakers on the stands for rear surround. Okay enough daydreaming for now. I am very impressed with the Sonos Era 300 and the ability in the app to add all kinds of Android media apps to it. There is Apple Music, Sonos Radio, Tidal, Spotify, SoundCloud and then apps like IHeart Radio, TuneIn Radio and even Podcast apps like Pocket Cast and lets not forget about SiriusXM. I cloud go on and on but I have yet to discover evry compatible app because I was so anxious to listen to this engineering marvel. I really think a full surround system would be amazing. I did not even get near full volume on the Era 300 I only got up to 69 on the volume and it was plenty loud and sounded amazing. I am a first time Sonos user and I have to say I have never owned a in home Bluetooth speaker that immediately had me thinking about expanding me Speaker arsenal of more of that brand. The Sonos Era 300 is that impressive and while it does have pretty good low end it is not the same as a dedicated subwoofer. I have some other surround system even one with a dedicated Receiver Ampllifier and I am still drawn to the Sonos because of the Soundstage and the Dolby Atmos that I know will come with a complete Sonos surround system. While the Sonos speakers require a power outlet to plug them in they connect to each other wirelessly which is a very attractive feature. The amazing thing is they are both transmitters of there own WIFI signal and receivers of WIFI and Bluetooth signals. That means One Sonos speaker can put out the Sonos wireless signal to another speaker even if your router or home WIFI can not reach that speaker your closest Sono speaker in a room to room whole home array can. Sonos has very well thought out and well executed software and all the features needed to make them work in a wide field of application scenarios based on your needs. I should mention though that you will need a TV with Arc output for Dolby Atmos or you can buy an adapter from Sonos to get your non Arc TV to work with Dolby Atmos. Sonos pretty much has everything covered as far as I can see. While a Sonos system can get pricy if you get there high end or newest products there are many systems that cost more. Personally, I believe a Sonos surround system or even a whole house system including a surround in your media room or living room would satisfy even hardcore audiophiles like myself. Yes I like it loud with deep bass and a full sound stage from the lowest frequencies up to the highest ones. Thiis can be acheived with a premium Sonos system so do not hesitate to start building yours today!

Bought two of these for stereo seperation. Simply amazing speakers with enough bass that a sub is not needed. Dolby Atmos comtent sound great and setup was super easy with no issues. They're pricey but your paying for the good sound and ability to move them litterly anywhere in your home with no connection issues. Like an Apple product IT JUST WORKS!

The Sonos 300 is an impressive addition to the Sonos lineup, blending sleek design with powerful sound. As a smart speaker, it delivers crisp highs, detailed mids, and a rich bass that fills the room without distortion, even at higher volumes. The setup is incredibly easy, thanks to Sonos’ intuitive app and voice control integration, including compatibility with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. One of the standout features of the Sonos 300 is its ability to integrate seamlessly with other Sonos products, allowing you to create a multi-room audio system effortlessly. The build quality is solid, with a modern aesthetic that suits almost any decor. However, while the speaker delivers great sound for its size, it may lack the deep low-end punch that larger models like the Sonos Sub offer. Overall, the Sonos 300 is an excellent choice for those looking for high-quality sound in a compact, easy-to-use package that integrates seamlessly into a smart home ecosystem. It's perfect for music lovers, podcast enthusiasts, or anyone who wants to upgrade their home audio setup without dealing with a complicated installation.

The speakers are amazing!! I have owned the Sonos Arc and subwoofer for quite some time now. I have been dying to add to my home theater system to achieve the complete Dolby Atmos experience. After researching for weeks on line, I decided to go with the Era 300s. Although they were on the pricey end, I purchased the speakers on line and went to my local Best Buy to pick them up. When I arrived at the store, I decided to go to the back so that I could see or hear the speaker in person. I was so excited when I noticed a in store sticker advertising that the speaker was less than what I had paid online. I immediately went to the customer service desk and was told that it was an old sticker and that I had to pay the full price!!! Having worked in customer service before, I know that if the store makes a mistake with price tickets, typically the store honors the price and then removes the ticket for all future customers. However, in this case that did not happen. I was told by management that they couldn’t do anything!!! She was quite rude and did not try to offer any type of discount. I took the speakers anyway, because I purchased them on my Best Buy card and was financing them over 24 months. I thought if I called customer service, they would possibly credit me the $100 difference. WRONG!!! I spoke to someone in India who put me on hold 5 times just to tell me no. Best Buy in Dothan really needs to work on their customer service!! I have purchased multiple high ticket items in this store in the past and have never had any issues. This store always looks like a ghost town. If they continue to treat loyal customers this way, it probably won’t be long until they’re out of business.

The Sonos Era 300 Speaker is a formidable standalone audio device and an excellent choice for creating an immersive surround sound setup. As someone who has incorporated the Era 300 as surround speakers in my home theater with the Arc and 2 Subs Gen 3, I've been thoroughly impressed with their performance and integration with the Sonos ecosystem. Sound Performance: The Sonos Era 300 seamlessly blends with your existing audio setup to create a rich and immersive soundstage when used as surround speakers. Their well-balanced audio reproduction complements the front and center channels, enhancing the overall surround sound experience. The Era 300 reproduces the rear audio effects precisely, providing an enveloping and realistic sound environment for movies, TV shows, and games. I was a bit nervous since I have a large leaving room and real high ceilings, but the Atmos still works wonders. Easy Integration: Setting up the Sonos Era 300 as surround speakers is effortless. They can be wirelessly connected to your Sonos Arc, eliminating the need for cumbersome wiring. The Sonos app guides you through the setup process, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free installation.

The build quality is excellent, with a solid construction that exudes durability and longevity.

Got a pair of these in the holidays, paired them with an Arc and 2 Gen 3 subs, boy oh boy they make a bang! Pros: Excellent sound quality: The Era 300s deliver clear, crisp audio with rich bass and impressive soundstage. They're particularly well-suited for Dolby Atmos content, providing a truly immersive listening experience. User-friendly Sonos ecosystem: The Era 300s seamlessly integrate with the Sonos ecosystem, making it easy to control them using the Sonos app, voice assistants, or your TV remote. Wireless and versatile: The Era 300s are completely wireless, so you don't have to worry about messy cables. They can also be used as standalone speakers or paired with other Sonos speakers for a surround sound system. Stylish design: The Era 300s have a sleek and modern design that looks good in any home. Cons: Expensive: The Era 300s are quite expensive, especially when compared to other wireless speakers on the market. Limited bass: While the bass is generally good, some users find it lacking, especially if you're used to a subwoofer. No HDMI input: The Era 300s don't have an HDMI input, so you can't connect them directly to your TV. You'll need to use an optical audio cable or connect them wirelessly through a Sonos soundbar. They have to be paired or unpaired in the app to listen between stereo (music) or Surround (movies), small inconvenience, but nothing major.

Originally got one of these as it fit the bill for what I was looking for in a smart speaker, and it blew me away. Dolby Atmos aside, it’s seriously impressive how well this speaker throws out sound to the sides, and honestly has a more defined L + R than a lot of soundbars that put the physical drivers much farther apart than on the Era 300. It also has a lot more bass output than you would expect for its size, especially given that its just 2 small woofers and 4 tweeters. I now have 2 in a stereo pair, and Atmos tracks on them are just mesmerizing, and even without any Sub I can get very impressive output in and below the 40HZ range. I really can’t belive these can be used as rears in a soundbar system, given that a single Era 300 blows a lot of soundbars themselves out of the water let alone the cheap rears most soundbars give you. I’m now looking at adding an Arc and 2 Gen 3 Subs, and hope that Sonos will add support to use an additional 300 pair without doing the crazy grouping method to make it happen. If you’re considering it, do it.

I recently upgraded my home audio setup, and the Sonos Era 300 has truly impressed me. Compared to the HomePod, the Era 300 delivers a richer and more immersive sound experience. The clarity of highs, depth of lows, and overall balance are exceptional, making every note come alive. One standout feature is the versatility of the Era 300. Its compatibility with various streaming services and easy integration into existing smart home setups provide a seamless user experience. The ability to fine-tune audio settings through the Sonos app allows for personalized sound customization tailored to individual preferences. With the HomePod you get locked into the Apple ecosystem. Moreover, the Era 300’s design is sleek and modern, seamlessly blending into any room aesthetic. Its compact size doesn’t compromise on power, and the build quality is evident from the moment you unbox it. While the HomePod has its merits, the Sonos Era 300 outshines it in terms of audio fidelity, flexibility, and design. If you’re seeking a premium speaker that delivers a superior listening experience, the Sonos Era 300 is undoubtedly a top contender.
