The speakers were previously leaked under the codename Optimo and are expected to rival Apple HomePod and other similar smart speakers from brands like Google and Amazon.

The report adds that both speakers will come with a completely new design compared to the current products from Sonos. It is also said that the Era 300 will come with support for Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos.

A few months ago, it was reported that Sonos plans to revamp its lineup of products with the launch of several new speakers under a new series. The premium offering in the new lineup, Era 300, which has the codename Optimo 2, will be a multidirectional speaker. It will feature a completely rearchitected acoustic design and will offer the richest fidelity of any single speaker that Sonos has ever released.

The speaker is also expected to come with a USB-C port, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity support, and Bluetooth playback. All speakers in the Era lineup will support automatic tuning and sound optimization. Do note that the features were explored during the development stage, and the final list of features may be different.
