Sonos makes some of the best soundbars on the market, with the flagship Sonos Arc ruling the roost. At $900, it's not exactly a budget audio solution and, unlike some of its biggest competitors, you'll have to pay a hefty premium for add-ons, like surround-sound speakers and a compatible subwoofers.
While we typically recommend using the Sonos Era 300 as optimal rear surrounds with the Arc, I had to see for myself if Sonos's entry-level speakers — the Sonos Era 100 — were a better fit for those of us on a budget.
