Sonos Era 100 SL – Wireless Stereo Speaker

Sonos Era 100 SL – Wireless Stereo Speaker The Sonos Era 100 SL is a compact wireless speaker designed to deliver rich stereo sound and deep bass without built-in voice control. Its acoustic architecture combines three Class-D digital amplifiers, two angled tweeters and one midwoofer to produce stereo separation from a single enclosure. With Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, Apple AirPlay 2, USB-C connectivity, Sonos app control and Trueplay room tuning for compatible iOS devices, Era 100 SL can operate as a standalone music speaker, as part of a multi-room Sonos system, as one half of a stereo pair or as a surround speaker in a compatible Sonos home theatre system. Key Features Rich Stereo Sound: Dual angled tweeters create left/right separation from a single compact speaker. Three Class-D Amplifiers: Three dedicated digital amplifiers are individually tuned to the speaker's acoustic architecture. Dual Angled Tweeters: Two high-frequency drivers provide detailed treble and enhanced stereo separation. Powerful Midwoofer: Dedicated midwoofer reproduces vocal frequencies while delivering deep, full-bodied bass.

Wi-Fi 6: Supports modern 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless networking for Sonos streaming. Bluetooth 5.3: Stream audio directly from compatible Bluetooth-enabled phones, tablets and computers. Apple AirPlay 2: Stream directly from compatible Apple devices and integrate the speaker into AirPlay systems.

Trueplay Tuning: Measures room acoustics and adjusts the speaker's EQ for its listening environment using a compatible iOS device. Adjustable EQ: Bass, treble and loudness can be adjusted through the Sonos app. Stereo Pairing: Two compatible speakers can be configured as dedicated left and right channels. Home Theatre Surrounds: A pair can be integrated as surround speakers with compatible Sonos home theatre products.

It can stream over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.3 or Apple AirPlay 2 and is controlled through the Sonos app or its capacitive touch controls. An analogue source such as a turntable can be connected through the USB-C port using the optional Sonos Line-In Adapter and an appropriate 3.5mm audio connection; a turntable without a built-in phono preamplifier additionally requires a suitable external phono stage. Wired Ethernet connectivity is available using the optional Sonos Combo Adapter. Two compatible speakers can be configured as a dedicated stereo pair, while a pair can also serve as surrounds within a compatible Sonos home theatre system.
