Sonos today has opened up its own Prime Day inspired sale, offering steep discounts on select home theater audio equipment. This includes low prices on the Sonos Roam 2 portable speaker, as well as various discounted bundles, all of which are rare deals we haven't tracked since earlier in the summer.

Highlights of the event include the Sonos Roam 2 for $143 and Sonos Era 100 Smart Speaker for $199, both of which are all-time low prices.

If anyone's looking at the 2 Era 100 set and has a Costco membership, you can knock another $25 off of things with their bundle instead.

I bought a pair of Sonos Roams about a week after they launched, one of them stopped charging despite being on a Qi Pad 99% of the time, but after the 1 year warranty so i was given 20% off, the other is still working but its def their worst hardware product I ever bought.

On the plus side i LOVE my Move 2 and Move 1 so I may grab another Move 2 or a pair of Eras to be home theater rears and replace my ancient Play:3's which are the rears now. Still haven't used the 20% off and the rumored new soudnbar doesn't move the needle for me.

My Roam also died a couple of months after it was out of warranty. I'd been keeping it on the Roam charger when I wasn't using it as a portable device and that is reportedly the problem.

The offered discount is unappealing for a device that dies after 14 months. And the Roam 2 is essentially the same innards in a slightly updated skin, with still no option to replace a dead battery and so likely susceptible to the same issue. No way I'll buy another one, even at a steep discount. Actually, between the insta-junk Roam and the fiasco of an "upgraded" app, I may never buy another SONOS device again.
 
The absolute sh*t show app causes sale to die hence the constant rebates. Stay away from Sonos at the moment
 
Not buying anything from Sonos until the CEO is replaced with someone who cares about customer experience.

It took about 6 weeks and multiple calls and messages to their customer support, but finally my Sonos speakers are able to work again after their recent update destroyed a perfectly good set up.
 
Gotta say, love Sub plus two Fives. And the move is a solid option as well. As far as portable I have still to find something to beat my (well beat-up) first gen A1 from B&O, sounds good and seems to be indestructible

The new App sucks big time. I gave them some time to fix it or even roll back (which would be a good solution as everything worked fine) but looks like they ignore their customers. Just make sure to check the recent reviews of the Sonos App before you purchase any speaker. I would wait until they fixed the issues they have.
 
they should create a successor to the Denon HEOS drive - there is nothing similar on the market and Denon has effectively given up un HEOS (or they never really tried)
 
The stock market have spoken. I will revert to S1 as soon as it is possible. The volume control drives my family nuts.
