1.1 | 1 | So, I decided to test Sonos for my kitchen and bought an Era 300 (the Five was both to large and expensive - and I have read a few reviews that the Era was more nuanced...) |
| 2 | |||
| 3 | First time - see my intial test at [[Sonos Arc + Sub + 2 x Era 300 (Surround sæt)>>Main.anmeldelser.sonos-arc-sub-2-x-era-300-surround-saet]] and second time - the purchase/return at Blog.incoming-sonos | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | Got the speaker and installed (OMG) [[the new and not apprised app>>https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/08/app-redesign-blowback-will-cost-sonos-up-to-30-million-ceo-says/]]. | ||

| 7 | Here is a sample of the setup struggles: | ||

| 11 | Hanging app, suddenly no products found after successful setup, firmware update stalling/failing etc etc. | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | Well - in short, I got it running finally.... | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | But - I was so disapointed again for a speaker to +3000 dkr... | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | An Yes - I did trueplay it.... | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | So I bought a Denon Home 250 for a comparison, and it kicked the Era's ass as a single kitchen speaker... in both apperance and sound. | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | So, that was the final journey for Sonos and yours truely, i do think its an overated hyped product... |
