Disappointing sound quality, I felt catfished
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sonos Arc has all the things that I was looking for in a sound bar on paper. It has eARC, Dolby Atmos, ability to add a wireless sub and rear speakers. It was out of stock everywhere and I had to wait for a week for it to get here. It came with superb packaging and the sound bar felt very solid. Everything was great until I started to listen to it. Before I go into details, here is a little background on my setup and why I was looking into the Arc. I was looking for a simple and clean wall mounted sound bar to replace my existing bookshelf speakers + receiver + TV stand. This way, I can have only the TV ( LG 65 C9) and the sound bar on the wall for a clean look. I was going to buy the LG SN10YG, but decided to go with Sonos Arc due to the modern design. After calibrating with Trueplay, I watched a few movies with Dolby Atmos and listened to a few songs. The highs are too harsh, the mid is a somewhat weak, and the bass is reasonable without the sub. I couldn’t tell the sound was coming from above or around me which shows the lack of immersive experience. The Sonos Arc doesn’t have the ability to adjust full EQ, it only has bass and treble. Full EQ would have been helpful to adjust the sound to my liking. During this time of the review, Apple TV + HomePod started to support Dolby Atmos. I compared the two systems side by side, I will just stick with Apple for now until I find the right sound bar) Overall, here are my scores for Sonos Arc Movies 6.5/10 (feels like a 3.0 system, lack of immersion) Music 4/10 (very harsh for music, treble is high even after tuning) Design 9/10 (modern looking and has it in white) Quality 10/10 (solid, feels nice) Connectivity 7/10 (Airplay, eARC, but no Bluetooth or remote )
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Sonos Customer Care
Posted .Hi, and thank you very much for taking the time to review Arc! We're very sorry you didn't have an outstanding experience that is expected of Arc and of Sonos. If you were watching a movie that supports Atmos, you should have indeed been able to tell the separation and the height channels. It even has dedicated surrounds so you should have hear surround sounds behind you. We would ask to check to make sure you content was in atmos as much streaming content is not in atmos even though the newest apple tv and Tv's with eARC support it.
We appreciate the detailed feedback and will take it into consideration! Good luck finding the right soundbar!

Sonos Arc Soundbar to rescue
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sonos Arc Soundbar. My issue was trying to eliminate background noise, especially in sporting events or movies. The Sonos Arc, solved that problem. The speaker levels out the sounds so that the background noise doesn't drowned out the speaking Voices.
