Bose Home Speaker 500
Sonos Era 300
The Sonos Era 300 and the Bose Home Speaker 500 are both premium home speakers with similar feature sets. They're both reasonably well-built, can get quite loud, and feature both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. However, the Sonos has a more balanced default sound profile and features Trueplay Advanced Tuning room correction to get the most out of your acoustic space. While the two have a comparable soundstage performance, the Sonos supports Dolby Atmos Music for an extra immersive sound via certain subscription services. That said, the Bose has less compression present at max volume and has better voice assistant integration, with built-in support for both Google Assistant and Alexa.
