Sonos has introduced its new smart speakers in India, known as Sonos Era 300 and Sonos Era 100, following the global launch earlier this year.
Sonos Era 300
The Era 300 is a compact speaker with six powerful drivers that direct sound in various directions, delivering an spatial audio experience with Dolby Atmos for movies and music. Its elegant hourglass design enhances sound dispersion, immersing you in the audio.
It’s also the first Sonos smart speaker to provide multi-channel surround sound for home cinemas. You can pair two Era 300 speakers with Arc or Beam (Gen 2) for a captivating Dolby Atmos experience.
Sonos collaborated with artists and creators to fine-tune Era 300 for studio-quality sound. The Trueplay tuning technology optimizes sound based on your space.
