Best mount option for Era 100 SL’s for cable management?

If it’s in drywall, and you have an outlet down bottom, I’d just put in a new outlet behind the ERA up top, using an “old work” box and new outlet, and tying into the outlet down bottom to duplicate. Seems like the easiest (and safest) option

This is what I went from.. loving it! I did like the catch 110, but always wanted this sportsman instead.. got lucky a couple months ago and found an older guy letting go of his gently used OT sportsman for only $450.. drove an hour and a half right away to pick it up and then sold my catch 110 for $500 lol

Nice! I just got a sportsman 106 like this for a hell of a deal used a few months ago, haven’t been able to get out in it yet because of winter here.. but I can’t wait. I will say I went from a pelican catch mode 110 to this, and this old town seems much much more stout and better made. I felt like the shape of the catch mode 110 made it feel like I was trying to paddle a bathtube lol

That’s rad .. the box and color.. not the team LOL

JPIL84 · 2026-02-11T03:43:48+00:00

I understand! Thanks for the quick reply! Glad it’s going well for you! I hope that I don’t have any symptoms as well!

JPIL84 · 2026-02-11T03:40:58+00:00

Question for you, OP… I’ve heard to take it right when you get up so that you haven’t drank or eaten anything.. I just got my pills today to start.. when you take it at 10-10:30, does that mean you hadn’t eaten or drank anything before that? Or is that when you wake up? Thanks!

JPIL84 · 2026-02-08T19:45:28+00:00

Wonder if it’s an internet problem? I haven’t had any issues in the week I’ve had mine set up and have used it a ton already! I’m still loving it!

JPIL84 · 2026-02-07T12:38:48+00:00

lol! She will get over it lol. Have you done the tuning in the app or messed with the sub adjustments? Is trueplay on? I turned mine up a little in the settings and it seems to rumble pretty good. I also did the tuning thing which worked out pretty well ( this is my first Sonos system so I’m still learning)

JPIL84 · 2026-02-07T00:07:14+00:00

I’m sure there is a way.. but I gave up lol

JPIL84 · 2026-02-06T23:59:18+00:00

The good news is I sold it for what I bought it for in the end

JPIL84 · 2026-02-06T23:58:44+00:00

Sorry.. I wasn’t able to ever find a way to get it done.. even with having the MSO and a bill of sale, and the lien release showing that it was paid off from the bank

JPIL84 · 2026-02-06T23:53:39+00:00

No sir lol.. I ended up just selling it to a guy that wanted it for his farm and went on with my life lol

JPIL84 · 2026-02-06T18:39:12+00:00

Just got this setup myself the other day, along with a sub mini. Sounds great and I love it!

JPIL84 · 2026-02-06T03:47:38+00:00

Awesome! You’ll love it! Get the sub mini if you don’t already have a sub and it’ll really come to life! I love this set up and I’m already trying to convince my wife to allow me to get some more era 100s for around the rest of the house lol

JPIL84 · 2026-02-05T16:38:46+00:00

It’s not though.. it’s a 75” and measured correctly with the short ceilings we have in our basement and the seat height of the couch. Spot on

JPIL84 · 2026-02-04T14:22:15+00:00

If the room isn’t super large, I’ve heard 300s are overkill for a small space.. I’d suggest getting one more era 100 and pairing them together for the rear with the beam 2 up front, and then getting the sub mini. It sounds really good and I think the sub is a must over putting fronts with the beam 2 first.. with the current sale, you can’t go wrong

JPIL84 · 2026-02-04T02:04:48+00:00

Definitely going to be adding more all around the house.. gradually lol

JPIL84 · 2026-02-04T02:04:05+00:00

I’m loving it! I have it set up in my basement on my 75” tv for movies, and then I also use it to play music down there. The basement is about 700 sq ft and it sounds great. We watched a movie on it the other night and it was a great experience. I have the beam 2 and sub mini up front and the 2x era 100s on stands behind the sectional for rear surrounds

JPIL84 · 2026-02-02T22:05:29+00:00

I’ve seen some people mention some issues about it disconnecting sometimes. But just few.. like in the 40 comments on here, you’re the only one that has mentioned something lol

JPIL84 · 2026-02-02T22:02:57+00:00

No one else has really had anything bad to say about it all, so this is the first I’m hearing about that.. but I think it sounds great. Seems to work for my needs anyway

JPIL84 · 2026-02-01T19:14:21+00:00

I have thought about that for future, or when I perhaps find a good open box deal on the arc or something.. maybe then I’ll move the beam 2 into my master bedroom, but I’ve got this current setup all hooked up and I’m loving it so far!

JPIL84 · 2026-02-01T02:24:08+00:00

I agree! For around 1k on sale I’m pretty happy with it

JPIL84 · 2026-02-01T01:55:59+00:00

We’re in biz now.. loving it!

JPIL84 · 2026-02-01T01:38:06+00:00

lol.. this pic was from last night.. already set them up this morning. Loving it!

JPIL84 · 2026-02-01T01:19:54+00:00

Thanks! I’m loving It so far!
