Era 100 as Surrounds - Is woofer on or off?

Is the center woofer in the Era 100 turned off (disabled) when used as surrounds with Arc/Beam?  I’ve read that with the Era 300 the center woofer disabled when in surround mode.  Is this the case with the Era 100?

I would highly doubt that the ERA 100 would have any of it’s drivers turned off in that mode. The only reason the front driver is turned off on the 300 when used as surrounds, is due to their design and Atmos capability.

The 100 is a regular speaker and will work just like the Ones/Play3s/Fives etc in surround mode. All drivers will be active.

Can you have too many Sonos speakers? 🤔 😆
