I want to mount my pair of Sonos ERA300’s only once onto my rear wall which is against my sofa. 

I don’t want to be faffing around, drilling multiple holes into my walls to adjust their height so what is best : ear level, slightly above ear level, or higher?

Has anyone tested different heights with their ERA300’s as rear theatre speakers and what worked best?

Does raising the speakers up 30 cm above ear level make a huge difference>?

Let me know what worked for you.

 

Regards

Home theater placement

Connect two rear Era 300s to a compatible Sonos soundbar for immersive for surround sound.

  • Both speakers' height should be around ear level and behind your seated position.
  • Leave at least 8" (20.32cm) clearance around the sides of each speaker.

I would mount at a height around ear level, which is aesthetically pleasing to all members in household (eg minimal cable showing), not in a position where you will bang you head when seated,  and let Trueplay make minor adjustments after mounted.
