Era 100
Sonos · £179

Worth being NRY provisional
The speaker Sonos expect you to buy first, and the one that makes the rest of the system worth having: add a second and you have stereo, add more and you have the house. At £179 it is the cheapest thing here and the only one whose value goes up as you buy more of them. Line-in is back on this generation, which the Sonos One it replaces did not have.
- For
- Someone starting a multi-room system, or wanting one good speaker in a kitchen.
- Not for
- Anyone who wants one speaker to be the whole hi-fi, which this is not pretending to be.
What we checked
- It follows the Sonos One and is designed for use across the range. Richer Sounds
Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
