FAQs
Can I connect a turntable directly to the Sonos Era 100 SL?
No, you will need the Sonos Line-in adapter (sold separately) to connect a turntable or any other audio source with a 3.5mm or RCA output.
How do I perform Trueplay tuning?
Trueplay tuning uses the microphone on your iPhone or iPad to measure how sound reflects off walls, furniture, and other surfaces. Open the Sonos app, go to Settings > System, select the room with your Era 100 SL, and choose 'Trueplay Tuning'.
What is the difference between Era 100 and Era 100 SL?
The 'SL' designation in Era 100 SL signifies that it does not include a microphone for voice control out-of-the-box, making it a more privacy-focused option. However, it can still be controlled via the Sonos app, Bluetooth, and compatible voice assistants when paired with another Sonos product that has voice control enabled.
Can I use two Sonos Era 100 SL speakers for stereo sound?
Yes, you can create a stereo pair by grouping two Sonos Era 100 SL speakers in the Sonos app. This provides a dedicated left and right channel for a more immersive listening experience.
Does the speaker have a battery?
