Sonos has launched a new pair of speakers in the Era 100<\/a> and Era 300<\/a> that, as the model name implies, marks a new era of wireless speakers from the company.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of the two, the Era 300 feels like a speaker that is genuinely different from the rest within Sonos\u2019 current line-up. That\u2019s because the speaker can play music in Dolby Atmos<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dolby Atmos presents music in a bigger, more expansive manner than stereo, firing audio above, to the sides and towards the listener for a more immersive performance. There aren\u2019t many Dolby Atmos wireless speakers currently available, with the Era 300 joining the likes of Apple Homepod 2<\/a> and Amazon Echo Studio<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But Dolby Atmos music is gaining more traction in the market as more music is produced in the format. Here\u2019s how to find Dolby Atmos audio on the Sonos Era 300.<\/p>\n

    The Short Version:<\/h2>\n
      \n

      1. \n
        \n

        Step 1.<\/h3>\n

        Open the Sonos app<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Dolby Atmos audio isn\u2019t supported over Bluetooth or AirPlay 2, so the first thing you\u2019ll need to do is open the Sonos app on your iOS or Android device<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      2. \n
        \n

        Step 2.<\/h3>\n

        Head to the search icon<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        In order to find content that\u2019s in Dolby Atmos, you\u2019ll need to head to the search icon on the bottom row.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      3. \n
        \n

        Step 3.<\/h3>\n

        Search for Dolby Atmos content<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Once you\u2019ve clicked on the search icon, type in Dolby Atmos to the search bar. You\u2019ll get results from several services, but Sonos currently only supports Atmos audio from Amazon Music and Apple Music<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      4. \n
        \n

        Step 4.<\/h3>\n

        Click on a track<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Once the app has brought up the search results, you can look at the results in the \u2018Album\u2019, \u2018Artists\u2019 and \u2018Songs\u2019 to locate Dolby Atmos-compatible tracks. Click on any track and the Era 300 will default to playing the track in Atmos. You\u2019ll know it\u2019s playing in Atmos when the Now Playing screen displays the Dolby Atmos logo<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n

        Troubleshooting<\/strong><\/h2>\n
        \n
        Does the Sonos Era 300 support Dolby Atmos tracks in Tidal?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

        As far as we can tell, the Era 300 won\u2019t play any selected Dolby Atmos tracks from Tidal, downgrading them to Hi-Fi or Master quality tracks instead.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
