Earlier this year, Sonos permanently dropped the price of its Era 100 speaker to $199, making it more affordable for people looking to build a multiroom wireless speaker setup. Now, the small-but-mighty speaker is even cheaper to kick off summer. Sonos is offering the refurbished Era 100 for just $119 ($40 off), the lowest price we’ve seen on the smart speaker. Sonos Certified Refurbished products are thoroughly inspected, cleaned, and tested by the brand’s in-house team, and you get the same one-year warranty as new Sonos products.
The Sonos Era 100 is the brand’s mainstream home speaker, offering stereo sound, line-in and Bluetooth audio support, and more intuitive physical controls. For instance, there are dedicated track controls — no need for swipe gestures — and a separate indented bar for volume. The speaker features two tweeters, enabling proper left and right channel reproduction. Additionally, the Era 100 comes with a larger midwoofer compared to its predecessor, Sonos One, for more booming bass.
In his review of the Sonos Era 100, former senior reviewer at The Verge, Chris Welch, said the smart speaker provides rich sound that’s consistently strong across genres, making it a great option for first-time buyers or those looking to add to their Sonos system. The Era 100 supports Sonos’ Trueplay feature, allowing you to fine-tune the speaker’s sound based on the room it’s in. Additionally, you can pair a second Era 100 for wider, more immersive sound.
