If you are concerned about all the e-waste on this planet, and especially now that the end of support for Windows 10 is knocking on the door, which will lead to millions of PCs being dumped, then you can do your part and help the planet.
The Sonos Era 100 Bluetooth smart speaker, which the company released in March 2023, is built from post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials; and if you’ve been eyeing a bookshelf-sized wireless speaker that manages the fill the room with decent quality sound then it is currently available for its lowest ever price of just $179 (purchase link under the specs table down below).
Inside the shell, you get dual angled tweeters for good stereo separation (you can pair a duo of Sonos Era speakers for even better stereo) plus a mid-woofer that should handle low frequencies, although do not expect sub-bass. Sonos says it has three class D amplifiers powering the thing, but output wattage has not been disclosed.
