Sonos wrapped its Earth Day sale on April 24 after cutting prices on certified refurbished speakers, soundbars, and subwoofers sold on its own site. (ign.com) (sonos.com) The lowest-profile deal was a refurbished Sonos Era 100 for $134, a drop from the $179 refurb list price shown on Sonos’s store page. Sonos lists the new Era 100 at $219. (ign.com) (sonos.com 1) (sonos.com 2) Other refurbished models still highlighted during the promotion included the Arc at $399, Beam (Gen 2) at $299, Ray at $134, Era 300 at $329, Move 2 at $299, and Sub (Gen 3) at $409. (sonos.com) (ign.com) Sonos pitches the program as manufacturer-backed refurbished gear rather than open-box inventory from a reseller. Its certified refurbished page says each unit is thoroughly tested and backed by a one-year warranty. (sonos.com 1) (sonos.com 2) That warranty point matters because Sonos’s support pages say warranty length depends on region for new products, while the U.S. refurbished store explicitly advertises one year of coverage. (sonos.com 1) (sonos.com 2) The sale also shows how Sonos is using refurbished inventory to keep lower entry prices in the lineup while newer hardware stays expensive. A new Era 100 remains $219, and newer premium models such as Arc Ultra sit far above the refurbished deals. (sonos.com) (sonos.com) Third-party deal coverage leaned hard on the Earth Day angle, framing the promotion as both a cheaper upgrade path and a way to extend the life of existing hardware. IGN and Gear Patrol both pointed readers to the same manufacturer-run refurbished program. (ign.com) (gearpatrol.com) By April 25, Sonos’s general promotions page had already shifted to different offers, while some refurbished products remained discounted at levels different from the Earth Day push. The short sale window made the $134 Era 100 the headline number. (sonos.com) (sonos.com)
