Here’s Which Streaming Platforms The Sonos Era 300 & 100 Support For Spatial Audio – SlashGear

In addition to the Era 300, Sonos also rolled out the Era 100, its follow-up smart speaker to the Sonos One. It offers high-quality audio with good stereo reproduction, but unlike the Era 300, it is not designed for spatial audio. So if you have Apple Music or Amazon Music Unlimited, you won’t be able to play spatial audio tracks in full 360-degree sound on the bookshelf speaker.

However, the Era 100 does break Sonos’ tradition of eschewing Bluetooth technology and offers Bluetooth 5 support, which is great if you or your guests want to stream something from your phones quickly. The Era 100 also provides USB-C line-in audio if you use an adapter. The smart speaker supports Sonos Voice Control and Amazon Alexa but not Google Assistant. It can also utilize Trueplay on Android and Apple devices to allow your speaker to adapt to the specific room you place it in and adjust its acoustics accordingly.

So while it does not offer spatial audio, the Era 100 can still provide good-quality stereo music to fill the room. In addition to Apple Music and Amazon Music, it supports Spotify, Pandora, Tidal, and iHeartRadio, among other streaming services. It can also stream audio from iOS devices using Apple’s AirPlay. If you want to take advantage of Apple or Amazon’s spatial audio, you’ll need to upgrade to the Sonos Era 300.
