Play:1 replacement that fits the Sanus stand

I have a set of play:1’s sitting on Sanus stands as part of my Sonos home theater system. One of them has been acting up and not working, so I need to replace it. I was thinking of just getting a new set of era 100s, but I’m not sure they will work with the existing stand. What current offerings work with that stand?

But I would prefer not to have to buy new stands. 

Unfortunately you have no choice. The base of the Era 100’s are designed differently from the Play 1 base.  Besides there is a 10 year gap between speaker design of the Play 1 vs the Era 100. Things change.

Since the stands specify compatibility with Play:1, Play:3 and One/One SL, those are your options for the stands.

Thanks all. I’ll probably try to find a replacement Play:1 for now and upgrade fully later.

You could add an adapter plate to support the 100s, I’d try that before tossing the old stands.

A nice piece of oak, cut and sanded to fit, then sprayed a matching black wouldn’t be expensive. Around $10 here for enough to make several attempts.
