Is the Sonos Era 300 worth it?

The Era 300 is built around spatial audio. According to the Amazon.ca listing, six drivers point forward, to the sides and upward, and custom waveguides spread the sound to the left, right, forward and above you. An upward-firing tweeter bounces sound off the ceiling to give Dolby Atmos Music height, and two woofers are spaced wide to keep vibration down and bass balanced.

That is a different job from a basic smart speaker. If you mostly play podcasts in the kitchen, the Era 300 is more speaker than you need. If you play Dolby Atmos music or want a stereo pair that feels wide in a living room, the design is aimed squarely at you.

It also connects in more ways than most speakers at this price. The listing names Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a 3.5 mm line-in, plus Trueplay tuning, which adjusts the sound to your room, and Alexa voice control. You can pair two for stereo, or add them to a Sonos Arc or Beam (Gen 2) as rear speakers for Dolby Atmos surround.

What do owners say about the Era 300?

The Canadian reviews we read on the listing were strongly positive. Of the 1,294 ratings, 79 per cent are five stars and 11 per cent are four stars. One buyer said a pair of Era 300s paired with a Sonos Beam and subwoofer improved their surround sound considerably, and later said the effect was stronger with an Arc Ultra. Another reviewer who runs a pair as rear speakers with an Arc praised the clear highs, wide soundstage and easy setup through the Sonos app.

The most repeated advice is to add a subwoofer. Two owners who pair the Era 300 with a soundbar called a subwoofer a must, and two others said the Era 300 is worth choosing over the Era 100 if you are moving to Dolby Atmos. The complaints we found were modest: the price is high, one reviewer noted the Type-C to aux cable for the line-in is not in the box, and a reviewer in Mexico said Dolby Atmos music was limited to Apple Music on their setup.

Sonos Era 300 vs Sonos Five

The nearest step up on Amazon.ca is the Sonos Five at $779.99, sold by Amazon.ca, with a 4.6-star rating from 1,176 ratings. The listing describes a high-fidelity speaker with orientation sensing for stereo or mono, AirPlay 2, a 3.5 mm line-in for a turntable, and the option to use two as rear speakers in a home theatre. It costs $150 more than the Era 300.

The Era 300 is the pick if you want Dolby Atmos height and a spatial soundstage. The Five is the pick if you want a large stereo speaker with a turntable input and do not care about Atmos. Check the Sonos spec pages for both before you decide, because the two are tuned for different goals.

Who should skip the Era 300?

Skip it if you mainly want a small speaker for talk radio or a bedside table, if you rarely play music that carries Dolby Atmos, or if $629.99 is more than you want to spend on one speaker. It also stands about 19 cm tall and weighs 4.47 kg, so it needs a proper shelf or stand. If you plan to build a full surround system, remember that two Era 300s cost about $1,260 before the soundbar.

Is there a cheaper Sonos speaker?

Yes. The Sonos Era 100 is $289.00 on Amazon.ca, shipped and sold by Amazon.ca, about $340 less than the Era 300. It has a 4.5-star rating from 2,696 ratings. The listing says it has dual angled tweeters for stereo separation, a woofer 25 per cent larger than the one in the Sonos One, a 47 per cent faster processor, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and AirPlay 2, and that two can be paired for stereo or surround. It does not have the Era 300’s upward-firing driver or Dolby Atmos design, so it suits smaller rooms and tighter budgets.
