Sonos speakers and soundbars are up to $200 off ahead of Black Friday

Good news: Black Friday has come early for Sonos fans. Now through December 2nd, you can potentially save hundreds on a variety of Sonos products, including soundbars, smart speakers, and headphones. There are a lot of things on sale — and the Sonos app is in better shape than it was a few months ago, thankfully — which means now is a great time to buy if you’ve been looking to upgrade your home theater setup.

First up is the Sonos Ace, the company’s first pair of wireless headphones. Right now, they’re down to a new low of $349 ($100 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Sonos’ online storefront. They’re comfortable and stylish, with stellar noise cancellation, an exceptionally natural-sounding transparency mode, and excellent sound. However, their standout feature is their excellent integration with the rest of the Sonos ecosystem. The Ace support a nifty feature called TV Audio Swap, which allows you to pair up with soundbars like the Sonos Arc, Sonos Beam (both generations), and Sonos Ray for private listening.

Speaking of Sonos soundbars, the Sonos Arc and second-gen Sonos Beam are both available at a new low price. You can pick up the Arc for $699 ($200 off) from Amazon, Best Buy, and Sonos, while the second-gen Beam is available for $369 ($100 off) from Amazon, Best Buy, and Sonos. The entry-level Sonos Ray, meanwhile, is down to $169 ($110 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Sonos’ online storefront, which is $20 shy of its best price yet.

The  Arc is the largest and most capable of the three soundbars, with upward-firing Dolby Atmos speakers that deliver impressive audio quality. That said, the second-gen Beam also delivers good sound and support for Dolby Atmos, even if it’s not quite on the same level. The Beam also has some other features in common with the Arc, including an eARC HDMI port and support for Apple’s AirPlay 2, Amazon Alexa, and Google Assistant. 

Of course, we’d be remiss if we didn’t point out the new Sonos Arc Ultra, which is a more powerful version of the original Arc. It’s the first Sonos product to feature Sonos’ new “Sound Motion” tech, which is supposed to produce even richer and more immersive sound. Unlike the Arc, it also offers Bluetooth audio playback and supports Trueplay EQ tuning, so it should deliver the same kind of sound quality no matter where you put it in a room. The Arc Ultra costs $999, though, so if you’re trying to save some money, the original model is still an excellent option if you’re comfortable making some trade-offs.

If the Beam and Arc are too expensive for you, there’s also the 22-inch Sonos Ray. The compact soundbar doesn’t sound as powerful as the Beam, but it does manage to produce balanced, dynamic sound that’s surely better than the built-in speakers on your TV. Just bear in mind that it lacks HDMI and only accepts optical audio from your TV, so you’ll have to do without eARC.

If you’re not interested in a soundbar, Sonos is also offering a handful of smart speaker deals. Right now, for instance, you can purchase the Sonos Era 100 for an all-time low of $199 ($50 off) from Amazon, Best Buy, and Sonos. The Sonos Era 300, meanwhile, is available for $359 ($90 off) — also an all-time low — from the same retailers (Amazon, Best Buy, Sonos).

The Sonos Era 100 is the successor to the Sonos One, and as such, it delivers better sound and newer capabilities (including stereo playback). In addition to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, the Era 100 also supports line-in playback via an optional 3.5mm to USB-C adapter. Moreover, it supports Apple’s AirPlay 2 and Amazon Alexa, allowing for hands-free commands.

The Sonos Era 300 supports the same Bluetooth and line-in features as the Era 100, as well as Apple’s AirPlay 2 and Alexa. However, Sonos’ hourglass-shaped speaker is all about delivering an excellent spatial audio experience. When you pair two Era 300s with the Sonos Arc or second-gen Beam, it delivers full Dolby Atmos audio, making it the only Sonos speaker to do so. The overall result is an immersive audio experience, one in which it feels as though the sound is coming at you from all directions.

Last but not least, Sonos is discounting both the Sonos Move 2 and Sonos Roam 2. The Move 2 is available for $359 ($90 off) from Amazon, Best Buy, and Sonos, which is $23 shy of its lowest price to date. Meanwhile, the Roam 2 is $40 off at $139 (Amazon, Best Buy, Sonos), which is its best price to date.

The Move 2 is a powerful, six-pound speaker you can carry around via a built-in handle, one that lets you fill any room or outdoor patio with sound. Unlike its predecessor, the Move 2 features stereo sound and long-lasting battery life, allowing you to eke out around 24 hours of playback on a single charge. It also includes support for line-in via USB-C and lets you play any music you might be playing via Bluetooth to the rest of your Sonos system.

If you’re looking for something even more portable, there’s the Roam 2. It’s similar to the original Roam, but unlike its predecessor, it’s relatively easy to use right out of the box, as Sonos has done away with the complicated setup process. Of course, it’s less powerful than the Move 2 as the smaller, more budget-friendly speaker. It also lacks a user-replaceable battery and only offers up to 10 hours of continuous playback.

Nevertheless, the second-gen Roam still produces clean, detailed audio and offers an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance, so you can take it outside without worrying. Plus, like the Move 2, it supports Apple’s AirPlay 2 and Amazon Alexa, so you can control it using voice commands — provided you’re connected to your Wi-Fi network.
