Sonos’ big sale on refurbished speakers is about to end

Portable audio and home theater upgrades can be very pricey, which is why we make a habit out of telling readers when there are good deals happening. With that in mind, here’s a friendly reminder that a heap of refurbished Sonos gear is steeply discounted, and will be until the company’s sale ends April 24th.

It’s an opportunity to get refurbished tech that is delivered in like-new condition, all of which are backed by the same one-year warranty that new products have. Sonos always offers a discount when buying refurbished gear compared to buying new, but some of the current sale prices are better than usual. For instance, its smallest plug-in speaker, the Era 100, is down to $134 (versus $219 new). The bigger Era 300 that offers louder, more immersive sound is $329, a huge $150 off discount.

There are also deals on refurbished home theater add-ons, as well as on hybrid speakers that work just as well outside for a barbecue as they do inside, linked to a larger group of Sonos speakers over Wi-Fi. The second-gen Sonos Beam soundbar with Dolby Atmos support and a wider sound than the first-gen model is down to $299 in black, which is $50 less than the best-ever price on a new model (it currently sells new for $499). Finally, the Sonos Move 2 that has a IP56 water-resistant design and up to 24 hours of battery life, plus line-in audio support, is $299. That’s a phenomenal deal considering the cost for a new unit hasn’t gone below $399 since last September. It currently costs $499 new at retailers.
