Black Friday speaker deals include up to $180 off Sonos gear

Sonos is a big name in the audio world, and many Engadget staffers are big fans. One thing you’ll notice about speakers is that they rarely go on sale. Which company does Black Friday sale especially attractive. Sonos speakers and soundbars are currently on sale for up to $180, both in Sonos’ own storefront and through other retailers. We’re seeing up to 20 percent off home theater products and up to 25 percent off portable speakers. Multi-speaker multi-packs are also available. These offers are available until November 27, which is Cyber ​​Monday.

Sonos Era 100

The Sonos Era 100 is our pick for the best midrange speaker around $199, $50 off Black Friday. We gave the Era 100, which debuted earlier this year to replace the Sonos One, an 88 in our review. You won’t always find Bluetooth and line-in support on Sonos devices (though you’ll need an adapter for that). You can use the built-in microphones to adjust the sound output for the room.

Unfortunately, there’s no Ethernet jack or Google Assistant integration – the latter is less of an issue if you connect the Era 100 to another smart speaker with Assistant support. We also found that one speaker lacked real stereo separation. So if you can swing two units, this might be the way to go. You can pair them with other Sonos devices for stereo playback and for a richer home theater or whole home audio experience.

Sonos Roam

A portable Roam speaker is also available. It has decreased from $179 to $134. The Roam is smaller than the Move (less than a pound). At this price point, it’s even more competitive with many portable Bluetooth speakers. The Roam scored an 87 in our review for durability, waterproofing and sound quality. Even better if you can afford two Roam units that you can bundle together. However, at around 10 hours, battery life wasn’t stellar in our tests, and the Roam isn’t the loudest portable speaker out there. This is an important consideration when it comes to outdoor parties. Still, the Sonos Roam is our top pick for the best portable smart speaker.

Sonos Beam Gen 2

Speaking of home theaters, you might also want to pick up a Sonos sound bar if that’s the kind of setup you’re looking for. The second iteration of the Sonos Beam includes Dolby Atmos sound, which is a significant improvement over the first generation as it has more immersive sound. Although it doesn’t have high-throw Atmos drivers, the Beam Gen 2 sounds great. So this is our pick for the best mid-range soundbar. this Available for $399 During the Black Friday sale.

Sonos Arc

If you’re looking for a higher-end soundbar experience, the Sonos Arc might be of interest. It has a higher-end soundbar Dropped from $899 to $719. We gave the Arc an 85 in our review, praising it for its excellent sound and adaptability in how it accounts for different types of content and other related speakers. The cylindrical design also gives the soundbar a modern look. As with the Beam, you won’t be able to connect all your devices directly to the Arc, as there’s only one HDMI input. Still, it’s our second pick for the best premium soundbar after Sony’s HT-A7000.

Sonos Sub Mini

There may be a situation where you want to power the bottom end of your existing Sonos setup. If so, the Sonos Sub Mini is worth considering. A compact subwoofer can Get it all for $343 During the Black Friday sale. It’s down to $429. We gave the Sub Mini 87 points in our review. It provides excellent bass output for its size. Unfortunately, it’s not compatible with portable Sonos products like the Move and Roam, but it pairs easily with the company’s wired speakers. So the Sub Mini is a great addition to home theater setups in apartments and small homes.
