Hi @SimonCW18 

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

Can use 2 Era 100’s as Stereo pair and connect use Line-in Adapter? or When it only work connecting with Bluetooth?

In case it isn’t yet clear, yes.

There will be a delay of at least 75ms, however.

You could use either Line-In with the adaptor, or Bluetooth without.

I hope this helps.

No, there is no way to avoid the 75ms delay on an analog line in. It’s built in to the Sonos software, and is the basis for Sonos’ whole home feature. The only way to reduce a line in is to use a digital input, such as on the Ray, the Amp, or the Arc. Additional information here:
