I already knew the Sonos Era300 would be good. But I didn't expect them to challenge my expectations of what home audio can be.
Contents I’m a little late to the party, because, well, I kind of am! The new Sonos Era 300 speakers came out a couple of months ago, and along with them a rush of reviews — mostly wildly positive — absolutely singing their praises. This includes our own Simon Cohen, whose opinion I trust. There are a lot of “game-changer” headlines out there, which I typically to dismiss as hyperbole. So I wanted to try the Era 300 for myself.
Sonos spatial audio I started with just one Era 300 because I think a lot of folks are likely to have just one of these in a given room. You may have already seen its sort of hourglass shape — one that folks were quick to hate when they first saw images of it ahead of its official launch. But the design — which I think looks just fine — is actually a classic example of function leading form.
This is when my opinion of the Era 300 skyrocketed. If one Era 300 sounds very, very good, then two of them in stereo are just superb. And I don’t just mean for a powered smart speaker – I would put a stereo pair of Era 300 against any number of high-performance bookshelf speaker and amplifier combinations that cost way, way more money. I’d put them against Klipsch’s The Fives, The Sevens, and, yeah, The Nines, too. The sound is so remarkably good.
TV speakers Now, before I move on to the full surround system with the Sonos Arc soundbar and the sub, I want to talk about the idea of using two Era 300 as TV speakers. This is something I did with the Apple HomePods when the second generation came out, and I was super-impressed with that pairing. So, can the Era 300 do it too?
