Title: The Sonos Era 300 is 20 percent off in this home speaker sale

A number of Sonos speakers are on sale right now at Sonos direct and Amazon.
This includes the well-regarded Era 300 smart speaker, which is on sale for
$359. This particular model is one of Sonos' newest, and it has rarely gone
on sale in the past.

We enjoyed the Era 300 enough to give it a score of 80 in our review. It has
excellent sound quality and offers a premium experience that far surpasses
other products in the company's lineup, even the Era 100. This is also true
when compared to rival speakers like Apple's HomePod.

It's simple to set up and offers the company's proprietary Trueplay tuning
system. This feature optimizes the sound of the speaker to the unique
acoustics of a room by leveraging an internal microphone. It measures how
sound reflects off surfaces and adjusts the EQ to match. It's pretty nifty.

As for connectivity, it can pair with another Era 300 speaker for a true
stereo experience. It also includes a Bluetooth receiver and line-in options.
Of course, the speaker integrates with just about every streaming music
service. The built-in mic also allows for voice assistant control, but only
with Siri and Alexa. Google Assistant is left out of the party.

This speaker goes all-in on spatial audio, and the results are mixed.
Sometimes it's sublime and sometimes it's kind of eh. This is more of a dig
on the technology itself. It has serious potential but is still experiencing
growing pains. The only real downside of this speaker is the exorbitant
asking price, which has been slightly alleviated by this sale.

As previously mentioned, other Sonos products are available at a discount.
This includes the Sonos Beam Gen 2 soundbar, which is 26 percent off at $369.
These deals are available via Sonos itself. There's also an ongoing sale on
portable speakers.
