Sonos Era 300

The Sonos Era 300 is good for music. Like most premium speakers on the market, this device has a room correction tool designed to automatically optimize audio reproduction based on the unique acoustics of your room. It reproduces voices and other lead instruments with accuracy, making it suitable for many genres. The bass and treble levels are adjustable, too. There's a little less low-bass than with the Sonos Five, but you still feel some rumble in the mix with bass-heavy genres like EDM. With its stereo sound, you get a wide and immersive soundstage. Also, if you want to listen to Dolby Atmos Music on your eligible music streaming service, it's one of the few speakers we've tested to support this technology.

The Dolby Atmos-compatible Era 300 delivers room-filling spatial audio on its own, or it can be easily integrated with other Sonos speakers for a truly theater-like experience.

The Sonos Era 300 smart speaker delivers amazing spatial audio in a compact package, and lets you stream from multitudes of audio sources — including your turntable. We just wish that we didn’t also need a soundbar to use it fully with our TV.

The Sonos Era 300 creates more space in your music than anything else I've heard for the same price or size. It gives you a real feeling of sounds being positioned with Dolby Atmos tracks, and even stereo gets more width than you'd think possible. It's not one for those who like it quiet, and we'd love a little more bass extension, but it's still one of the most exciting speakers you can buy today.

The new Era 300 from Sonos is the most impressive spatial audio speaker yet. It delivers a captivating spatial audio experience — if you find the right songs. The Era 300 also brings Sonos home theater systems to the next level.

The Era 300 is an excellent speaker, but it’s not without flaws. Outstanding audio quality is the main selling point, but the much-touted support for Dolby Atmos spatial audio, while fun, is limited with a single speaker and held back by Sonos’s software.

The Sonos Era 300 has a unique design. Some will love it, others might not be so sure, but you can't deny it's different and we're quite taken by it. It's not just about what it looks like though. The Era 300 sounds excellent and it's packed full of features, including Bluetooth and Dolby Atmos support.

De Sonos Era 300 heeft een uniek ontwerp. Sommigen zullen ervan houden, anderen misschien niet zo zeker, maar je kunt niet ontkennen dat het anders is en we zijn er helemaal weg van. Het gaat echter niet alleen om het uiterlijk. De Era 300 klinkt uitstekend en zit boordevol functies, waaronder Bluetooth en Dolby Atmos-ondersteuning.

El Era 100 es un altavoz excelente, pero no está exento de defectos. La excelente calidad de audio es el principal punto de venta, pero el tan anunciado soporte para audio espacial Dolby Atmos, aunque es divertido, está limitado a un solo altavoz y frenado por el

La Era 300 a beau être une enceinte performante, elle n’est pas exempte de défauts. Si sa qualité audio exceptionnelle est son principal argument de vente, la prise en charge de l’audio spatial Dolby Atmos, tant vantée, est limitée et freinée par le logiciel de Sonos…

The Sonos Move 2 offers plenty of promise as a great new portable Bluetooth speaker from the company. It might have increased in price compared to the original but you get a 24-hour battery, improved audio and a refined design, plus many of the same features as the Era 300.
