Sonos doesn't discount its popular speakers very often, so it's a good idea to jump on a good sale whenever you see one. Right now there's a Sonos 4th of July Sale that takes 25% off certified refurbished Sonos speakers. Sonos refurb products go through rigorous testing; they come with all accessories, manuals, and documentation and are reshipped in "pristine" packaging. Most importantly, Sonos stands by their refurbs enough to grant them the same 1 year warranty as buying new.
The Best Sonos 4th of July Deals
Sonos One SL Wireless Smart Speaker (Refurb) for $119
The Sonos One is a small standalone powered speaker that pumps out great sound for its small footprint. The best thing about the Sonos One is its multi-pairing capability. Pair it with another Sonos One SL speaker for seamless stereo sound. Pair it with a soundbar and use them as rear wireless speakers. Pair it with Sonos speakers in different rooms for multi-room capability.
Sonos Era 100 Wireless Smart Speaker (Refurb) for $149
The Sonos Era 100 is a direct successor to the Sonos One. Sound quality is equivalent to a Sonos Move, which isn't surprising considering they have similar internal components: two tweeters, a mid-woofer, and three class-D digital amps. The Era 100 also supports Dolby Atmos when it is paired with an Arc or Beam soundbar. It has a built-in microphone and can be voice controlled; it can also be used as a smart speaker for both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
Sonos Arc SL Soundbar (Refurb) for $509
The Arc is Sonos' flagship product. This is a premium soundbar and it shows. This 45" soundbar houses eleven precisely engineered internal speakers, including two dedicated height channels. It's Dolby Atmos ready, and there's enough power here that you can probably get away without a subwoofer. However, the Sonos Arc can be wirelessly paired up with other Sonos speakers and subs to add even more sound distribution. The "SL" in the Sonos Arc SL means "silence", and that's because the only difference is the lack of a microphone. Because of that, SL is not Google Assistant or Alex voice compatible.
Sonos Beam Gen 2 Soundbar (Refurb) for $299
The Sonos Beam is a smaller 26" soundbar that houses four elliptical midwoofers, one central tweeter and three passive bass radiators. It's also Dolby Atmos ready. Unlike the Arc SL, the Beam is equipped with microphones, so it can function as a smart speaker that supports both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
Sonos Sub Gen 3 (Refurb) for $479
If you want to add ground-shaking bass to your Sonos setup, there's still nothing better than a separate standalone subwoofer. The Sonos Sub boasts two 6" drivers that face inwards towards each other to eliminate unwanted vibrations. Each driver is powered by its own amplifier and delivers more than enough sound pressure for even a large room. Like the Arc, the Sonos Sub maintains a small footprint and it looks good. The integrated wireless connectivity so you can avoid the hassle of routing a cable back to the rest of your home theater components.
Why is Sonos so popular?
If you're looking for an easy solution to add great sound to your home, then you've probably already heard of Sonos. Sonos speakers are very easy to set up, don't take a large amount of space, and most importantly, offer distortion-free room-filling audio. We picked Sonos as our best soundbar of 2024.
Sound quality vs size
Despite the fact that Sonos products are compact and don't take up much space in your house, they offer surprisingly loud and distortion-free audio. They're definitely pricier than budget options, but the sound quality is more akin to audio products that cost hundreds more or take up much more space.
Easy setup
Sonos devices are usually simple plug and play. All you have to do is plug in a power cable (if even that's necessary) and one connection to your TV (if even that's necessary), download the Sonos app, and you're done. Generally a receiver isn't required; the soundbars are designed to plug right into your TV and the speakers are designed to work wirelessly. For something like a 5.1ch home theater setup, you don't have to deal with a mess of cables. Individual Sonos speakers can pair with your soundbar and be used as rear satellites, and the subwoofer is also wireless so it can be positioned virtually anywhere in your room.
Communication between devices
Practically all Sonos speakers can communicate with each other. That means you can pair different Sonos speakers in different rooms for multi-room capability. Or you can pair two speakers for stereo output. Or you can pair speakers to your soundbar to be used as a 5.1ch setup. It's all seamlessly done through the app.
