Best Sonos Prime Day deals — save up to $150 on soundbars, headphones and more
Sonos and its many devices make for a great way to fill your house with music — although they can be quite expensive. Thankfully, Prime Day is now here to reduce prices across the board, with some new lowest prices in tow. Perhaps you want some headphones — the Sonos Ace are now just $299 at Amazon, thanks to a $150 discount. Maybe you want some more bass for your movies? The Sonos Sub Mini is down to $343 at Amazon as well. There are some great Sonos deals out there right now — here are the best. The Sonos Ace were Sonos' first foray into headphones, and the firm did a great job at bringing its Dolby Atmos expertise to the headphone space. They sound big, airy, and spatial tracks work very well. 30 hours of battery is a big bonus of course, and it helped them earn a 4.5-star review on launch. This is their lowest price ever thanks to a $150 discount. The Beam Gen 2 is a great way to get Spatial Audio into a smaller room. It sounds great for normal TV watching as well, thanks to Sonos' excellent tuning — tuning which earned it a 4-star review. The Beam Gen 2 can connect to the sub and Era 100 on this list as well for extra surround and extra bass. This isn't quite the lowest price we've seen on the Beam Gen 2, but it's very close. The Sub Mini is a great way to add some extra bass to your Sonos soundbar. It's surprisingly powerful for something so compact, and gives out clear, musical bass. Great for some extra rumbles in your movies or power to your music. This is the lowest price ever for the Sub Mini as well. The Sonos Era 100 is a very flexible smart speaker, with great sound quality, no matter where you put in the house. We gave it 4.5 stars in our review, thanks to its excellent sound quality and compact size. This deal isn't quite the lowest we've seen on the speaker, but it's a solid saving nonetheless. There are plenty more deals to be had this Prime Day — make sure you check out our Prime Day live blog to make sure you're staying on top of all the latest sales and offers.

I'll be buying this Sonos Beam Gen 2 Prime Day 2 deal for my Dad — save $130 for a new lowest-price
My Dad needs a new soundbar. The one that he uses to listen to music and watch movies is on the way out, crackling whenever he plays Dune Part II. So — I set out on a mission over Prime Day. Find him a new one. It was a mission that lasted all of about half an hour. I jumped onto Amazon to check out the Prime Day sale and found him this — the Sonos Beam Gen 2 for $369 at Amazon. That's the lowest price ever, thanks to a $130 discount. Now, to persuade him to get a subwoofer... The Sonos Beam Gen 2 is the perfect way to get some Dolby Atmos in your living room without spending loads of money. We gave it 4 stars in our review thanks to its excellent, rich sound quality and outstanding spatial audio support. It's particularly good for smaller rooms, easily filling a bedroom with sound. This deal brings it down to its lowest price ever. So why did I choose the Beam Gen 2 for my Dad? It's quite simple really — he likes the sound of the Sonos Arc Ultra that lives in the lounge, but he doesn't need anything close to something that big in his little watching room. So, instead, we go for the next best thing. The Beam Gen 2 sounds like a mini version of the Arc Ultra, with some excellent spatial audio for small spaces and lovely, rich sound for your movies and TV. It leaves plenty of space to upgrade as well, should he decide he wants that subwoofer in the future (I suspect he will), or even some extra surround speakers in the form of a pair of Era 100s. It fits perfectly beneath the 50-inch TV that he watches his movies on, and it'll make watching his favorite movies even more engaging. Even more importantly, it's not going to crackle when he watches Paul Atriedes ride a sandworm. There are plenty more deals to be had this Prime Day — make sure you check out our Prime Day live blog to make sure you're staying on top of all the latest sales and offers.

Sonos soundbars and speakers are up to 26 percent off for Prime Day
There's a big Sonos sale going on right now as part of Amazon Prime Day. This brings the price of many of the company's offerings down by up to 26 percent. Perhaps the best deal here is for the Beam Gen 2 soundbar, which has been discounted to $369. The regular price is $499. This particular device made our list of the best soundbars, and for very good reason. It's a great mid-range option with plenty of features. It supports Dolby Atmos and the relatively compact design ensures it'll likely fit wherever you place it. To that end, it boasts particularly robust sound for its size. The only real downside is that it only has one HDMI port, which means you won't be able to directly connect a gaming console. It also means that older TVS with an optical jack will require an adapter. The Sonos Ray soundbar is also on sale for $169, which is a discount of around $30. This one also made our list of the best soundbars and we particularly enjoyed the budget-friendly price and easy setup. We said it "nailed the basics" in our official review. Now onto more traditional speakers. The Sonos Era 100 smart speaker is on sale for $179, which is a discount of $20. This is a voice-activated speaker with stellar sound quality. The Roam 2 portable Bluetooth speaker is down to $143 from $179, which is a great deal. This is the perfect "take anywhere" portable speaker, as it's lightweight and waterproof.

Pick up the Sonos Ray soundbar while it's on sale for $100 off
Sonos gear is back on sale right now. You can save up to 36 percent on soundbars and speakers, and the deals include a $100 off the Sonos Ray compact soundbar. It's currently available for just $179, down from $279 in either black or white. It's our runner up for best midrange soundbar. You can pick it up at Amazon or direct from Sonos at the sale price, and the discount will be available through March 24. The Sonos Ray debuted in 2022 and garnered an 82 in our review thanks to compact, sleek design and easy setup. We also liked its bass performance and overall sound quality for either TV or music. However, it didn't create as immersive a sound as larger options, so people with a big space might want to opt for something else. Other soundbars on sale include the Beam Gen 2, which is down to $399. Then there's our favorite midrange speaker, the Sonos Era 100. The speaker is currently down to $199 from $249 — a 20 percent discount. It offers great sound quality and has two tweeters. And if you're looking for a speaker that can come with you to your next backyard party or barbecue, both the Sonos Move 2 and the Roam 2 are included in the sale. You can grab them for $359 and $139, respectively. Separately at Wellbots, you can pick up the new Sonos Arc Ultra for $750, which is 25 percent off its usual price of $999. Just use the code ENGSONOS25 at checkout to get the discount. This sits at the top of our list of the best soundbars thanks to its crisp, immersive sound, improved bass performance and the addition of Bluetooth connectivity and convenient, repositioned onboard controls.
