Sonos Roam was £179 now £136 at Amazon (save £43)
Sonos is known for its attractive, full-sounding speakers, and while the Sonos Roam doesn't quite hit the heights reached by the likes of the Era 100 and 300 smart speakers, it's still a nicely made, robust unit full of musical muscle. The Roam 2 is out, but considering that the second-gen unit doesn't make many sonic improvements and costs a good deal more, the original is the one to go for when prices drop.
Lowest price on black finish.

Lowest price on black finish
Sonos Era 100 was £249 now £225 at Amazon (save £27) The Era 300's smaller sibling isn't much less impressive. It's still a wonderful speaker that gives a great deal of performance from a relatively small unit, and as a Sonos product, mega deals aren't always forthcoming, so any drop in price on the Era 100 should be snapped up sharpish.
