Era 100

Today I got to listen to 2 Era 100’s and a Sonos Arc and I’m surprised that for the price point they sound worse than my $100 Edifier Bookshelf speakers! Am I imagining this or do Sonos speakers sound robotic and a bit “un-dynamic” if that makes sense?

It’s such a shame for the price point…

I currently have 6 Mirage satellite speakers mounted on the ceiling like the 2 seen in this photo. I really want to upgrade to much better speakers but am having difficulty choosing which kind (satellite, bookshelf, floor standing, etc.) and where to place them given the odd layout of this room.

We need an upgraded Era 100 with up firing speakers and possibly an higher price. The possibility to adding them as front surrounds will triggers many Sonos users to buy 4 (but selling 2 Era 300 currently underused as rear surrounds).

Nisam audiofil. Telka mi ima dobre zvučnike (Phillips The One 75’), ali sam htio upgrade. Žena nije odobrila Sonos Era 350 pa sam uzeo dva Era 100 i Beam 2 kombo, za moje potrebe sasvim dovoljno, iako bih volio woofer ubaciti u mix. Pregovori su u tijeku.

I love good sound, and I'll always pay a bit more for quality speakers and headphones. I bought a Sonos One for the kitchen and a Sonos Beam for the living room around 6 years ago, and they're still going strong. I think they've discontinued the One and replaced it with the Era 100, but you can pick

I do not agree at all. I think it really depends on what you use it for. I think most people complaining on the app use B&O’s ear-/headphones and not their Beolab/Beosound speakers. I use it for a Theatre, Beolab 28s, Beolab 8s and Beosound 2, and is generally happy with the software. I previously h

Just an update for anyone that is also considering the era 100 as fronts. I’ve moved my five pair to the gym and am using the era100s as fronts now. I’m really pleased with the 100s. They sound thinner than the fives, but a future ‘Sonos’ integration will crossover the full range that the fronts cur

I use a Sonos beam soundbar and two era 100’s as rear surrounds so it’s a “5.0” system (sub coming I swear!!) and it’s absolutely incredible the experience I get out of it. Super simple setup and the wide appeal factor is through the roof as well.

ironically i just made the same move to sonos era 100 - only negatives are no presets / remote, but it plays without having to stream off iphone or ipad.. bose whould have left the custom url situation with the device, to keep those two items available.

I don’t have much experience with Sonos, so take this as you will. Just looking at the Era 100 specs, you will need a phono stage with a DIN connection or a DIN to RCA adaptor if your phono stage doesn’t have a DIN input, a cable to connect the phono stage to the Sonos Line-In adaptor (something lik
