- STOP! This is the Sonos Era 300 review that you’ve been looking for! Not only that, but I’ll do a Sonos Era 300 sound test for you also. I’ll go over all the Era 300 specs, and tell you more about the new spatial audio feature that Sonos brought to this device.
Sonos also included Bluetooth, so this very well could be the best bluetooth speaker of 2023! I love Sonos products and I know you will too. That’s why I’m sharing all of its features and letting you know what I think about its Dolby Atmos capability!
You won’t be sorry picking one of these up, and despite the high price tag, you’ll enjoy this wifi speaker for years to come with its future-proofed features.
Thanks for tuning in,

Hey Nenad! Great video: Very good sound and voice over. B-Roll fits very well into the review. The structure and length of the video is on point and you can tell how much work went into it! All in all very professional - congrats for hitting 1k subscribers!
Best regards, Ferdinand
Thanks for that amazing compliment! Really glad you enjoyed the video. More to come that I hope you’ll like even more! Thanks again 🙏🏻
Great Video! I've watched a few others and this is by far my favorite 👍🏼
Thanks I appreciate you watching the video! Glad you enjoyed it
This video has really helped me finalise my decision to go for it. Great video!
Glad it helped you! You’ll love it. Especially if you combine it with some other Sonos products!
Great review and super clean matching thumbnails across the board!
Thanks for that! Really appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Subbed! I have to watch this when I get home!
Oh sweet! Thanks man, I hope you enjoy it!
You got a nice setup going on too! Nice review here of the Sonos Nenad! I am not part of their eco system so this is interesting. Cheers!
Thanks I appreciate that so much!
Awesome video! Definitely have to get this for summer get togethers. New sub here! You’re almost at 1k!
Thanks man I appreciate that! Yeah it's such a great speaker. A little pricey but it's solid 👍🏼
Such a good video dude!
Thanks man! Really appreciate that. More to come!
Great video and very aesthetic!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for this one. I was very surprised listening to the song “Boom” from DJ Tiësto on one single ERA 300. There’s a more quiet segment half way in this short song that made sounds go around my head. This coming from one speaker was surreal. I bought a stereo pair to compliment my Sonos Arc and Sonos sub Mini and it’s so amazing to listen music as wel watching movies. Apple Music’s Dolby Atmos tracks are amazing if playing the wright ones.
Yeah some tracks sound better than others but when you find a good one it sounds amazing! Dolby Atmos will only continue to get better!
Great video, I feel like pairing 2 of these together would be phenomenal
Hey thanks! Yeah you definitely wanna grab a pair to really get some amazing sound
Your most aesthetic video thus far! Such a vibe. Nice crystal too
Thank you 😃 the crystal is by far the star of the video
I have two of these and the sub mini and the sound is phenomenal 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
that's an awesome setup you have there! I'm sure you're super pleased with it
Will a pair of these 300’s work well as rear speakers for watching movies? Great post. Very informative.
Definitely! I think they would be amazing for this. It'll be a super powerful system so a pair would be great for a bigger space
I’ve yet to listen to any music through my new setup with the 300s. They’re all about increasing the immersion of Dolby Atmos audio in movies for me. And for that alone I love ‘em!
Exactly! That's what these were made for. And they'll only get better over time with more Dolby Atmos options
lol what a waste of money
I just got my 2nd era 300 and I am pretty impressed with it. I don’t know if I should consider the beam gen 2, to round it off. This was already a toll on me.
Maybe in the future! No rush
Hello, thanks for the reviews. just a question, if i am only going to get one Era 300 for my desktop, and have to place the Era 300 on the left of my display, would it affect the listening experience? e.g. stronger sound on the left ear. thanks.
it should be fine!
@@NenadSapungin thks!
I have 2 era 300 and i have 1 sub gen 3 with a beam 2 and it sounds great.
That's a sweet setup you've got!
Intro is a cinematic banger 🔥
Thanks man! I appreciate that
Does Dolby Atmos still work by using Airplay directly from the Apple Music app?
That's a great question! I believe you have to play music through the Sonos app that connects to your Apple Music.. Hopefully someone can chime in to make sure this is true. Or if you find anything else out please let me know!
Do the Bluetooth and WiFi need switch like Sonos move ? Can they work at same time?
They have to be used separately!
I have 1 ERA 300 and I just got my second 300 and I stereo The two speakers. To be totally honest while I do like the way they both sound regarding better stereo with two speakers for stereo separation than 1 I don’t think the extra $450 I had to pay for the second 300 is really worth it. I don’t think the one speaker sounds much less an audio quality. Of course your mileage may be different 5:10 5:24 .
How big of a space are you using the pair in??
I just ordered two speakers. It’s gonna be my first sonos so I’m looking forward to it
I have a quick question? Im goingto buy the Ulitmate Immerseive set with the arc. So once i get them and install them into my living room, how does it connect to my tv or my xbox?
Nice! That's going to be awesome. The arc will plug into your TV so make sure it has the right connection. I believe it uses HDMI ARC port or eARC. So check to see if it's compatible with your TV. Then the other devices will connect through the Sonos app to work alongside the Arc
Good video, I got the 300's and found Spatial Audio to be borderline Gimmick for now. A pair of Era 100 is a much better, pair it with Sub mini and its a killer music system, even better than 2x Era 300.
I feel like for most situations, the two era 100s with a sub and soundbar is more than enough. Era 300s are really for big spaces or those just looking to have the best/ most recent tech out there
I have to disagree that Spatial Audio is a gimmick. I listened to a great interview from Steven Wilson. He’s a great album mixer and artist and he’s very passionate about Spatial Audio. Anyway, in his interview he explained how stereo sound is really the most basic version of Spatial Audio. Where sound is only projected from left and right. Whereas Dolby Atmos just takes it to the next level, with far more directions and placements of vocals and instruments.
Premium quality. Isnt it plastic speakers?
Is it better then the harmon kardon 7
Honestly, I haven't tried that system so I couldn't tell you!
Love the kids man, keep it up
Thank you!!
Just got one for music, wish I had gotten two. Have the second on order, but I could have saved $45.
ah I know! They're going to sound so great though. Nice choice grabbing two of them!
@@NenadSapungin Got it late yesterday and have been listening to music all day it sounds so good. I can hear every instrument and it is fantastic walking about the living space which is very open and perfect for these as it really does fill it with sound-- i.e. not so directional like regular stereo. No ear fatigue after over 12 hours. Two is going to be like a sonic heaven. Pricy? Yeah. Easily the most I've ever spent on speakers. Extravagant, really, but I do listen to a lot of music. Obviously, my only regret is not getting two from the start!
@@nsbd90now Yeah, if you listen to a lot of music, then they're totally worth it! Sounds like you're getting great use out of it so far. Let me know how you like it when you pair them up!
@@NenadSapungin Hello! The second one just arrived a few hours ago. I love them. To be sure, I have a really good space for speakers like this. Open with hard reflective surfaces and they are placed well away from walls on stands and because wireless with lots of separation. I am no audiophile, but I know my ear is above average. Like you, I listen to different genres, but you say "hip hop to country" I'm "rock to symphonic". So, I'm probably not so into bass, but I'm already totally considering spending a fortune on a Sonos sub unit to add to these. I can hear every instrument so clearly. Even music I know well is like a revelation so far. It really is enveloping. An important thing is even before the second one came just using one was great. Music all day without ear fatigue. To be clear, I am not at all interested in home theatre types of things. But Era 300s? Yeah, I'm loving them already! Music! Yeah!
@@nsbd90now That's awesome! I'm glad to hear that you're loving them. Seems like you've got a great setup and I'm sure they sound great in there. Sonos is one of those brands where you get sucked into their ecosystem and can't get out! lol But they're a great brand so to me it's worth it. Keep me updated on your Sonos journey
I’ve bought white, only thing I don’t like is this hour glass shape.
It's an interesting shape for sure! It might end up growing on you over time 👍🏼
@@NenadSapungin yes it does look elegant no doubt. Other question is, does this speaker needs breaking in? Generally speakers need around 40hr min to 100hr to sound best.
@@GautamChatterji I honestly haven't come across something like that for these speakers. But I don't doubt that they could potentially need some time to really break in and perform best. I don't think I'd be blasting them right away just out of an abundance of caution. Great point!
I have the arc/beam 2/Ray, mostly based on the OS and how they sounded in the store.
I wasn’t at all impressed with the 300 in-store, so I won’t be buying one/two. I’m not sure what the hoopla is all about for this speaker.
Don't get me wrong, I think it's a nice sounding speaker. However, I think most of the buzz is due to its Dolby Atmos capability! If it's not something you use or plan on using, then probably not the right speaker for you
@Nenad Agree, the spatial audio aspect is why I bought a pair of 300s. I have Arc, woofer, pair of 1s, pair of 5s and now pair of 300s which I use primarily for listening to music. USE YOUR UPGRADE DISCOUNT WHEN PURCHASING IF YOU ALREADY HAVE SONUS PRODUCTS.I use Amazon music to stream UHD, Dolby Atmos and 360 files. All of my playlists now consist of almost entirely Dolby Atmos songs. You can feel the different levels of the music in songs and provides a much fuller soundscape then my other speakers.
@@NeilLauinger Dolby Atmos I think is just going to get better and better! You've got a nice setup going on! The 300s are definitely going to be great for years to come. Enjoy your speakers!
Love the look of the 300 to bad it has no Google assistant.
They sound even better than they look! Check it out if Google assistant isn’t a must for you
nice video editing, video looks like it was made by a far bigger youtuber
Wow, thanks!
hahaha here in Peru the price is average 750 dollars ... so unfair
I don't know if it's worth it at that price!
Mc Lovin, is that you?
