    Wouldn’t you know it? I bought the ARC and 2 SL1’s back in March for $1354. Now it’s on sale for $300 less total and Best Buy doesn’t price drop match.

    Solid upgrade from Sonos Playbar

    I've been using a Sonos Playbar on my primary TV for a few years but was looking to upgrade. I was worried that I wouldn't hear a significant difference with the ARC, but figured I would give it a shot with the Black Friday deal. The soundstage is way more broad with much more detail. Atmos sounds great and 5.1 surround has much more audio separation. Dont regret it one bit. Playbar is gonna go in the kids' room now.

    Stunning wireless surround sound! I have this paired with the Gen3 subwoofer and 2 OneSL speakers. We have watched several of our BlueRay movies and hear all kinds of things we didn’t before with just the tv speakers (LG OLED 65”). Even Polar Express was impressive!! Expensive , but system was on sale at BB and we saved $500+. No regrets at all. Become totally absorbed and surrounded with sound on movie night

    Issues Playing Music

    The app causes so many bugs with all the Sonos speakers that it makes them just ordinary with added frustration and less money left in my bank account. If you're looking to purchase this to play music on Amazon Music while using surround sound, dont purchase Sonos. If you have surround on with multiple speakers and you listen to Amazon Music, the volume on one song is so loud that it blasts the speakers, then the next one is so quiet that you can't hear it at all. Since there is no remote, I have to have the app open prior to the song change so i can adjust the volume. This is a known issue, but they don't know when it will be fixed. I didn't spend this much money for speakers that don't work the way they were suppoed to.

    Underwhelming and Very Expensive Purchase

    I put off purchasing the Arc for the past few years as I thought; “is the cost vs upgrades worth it for this newest gen.” Honestly, I couldn’t wait anymore and I dropped some serious bills on this splurge. I am not impressed, I mean it is a very minor improvement over the Playbar. I find myself thinking my Playbar is still active when I’m in the living room as I haven’t seen that dramatic acoustic improvement others have conveyed. Save some money and get the previous gen Playbar or wait to the next generation comes out as this product is a minuscule upgrade in sound.

    Unbelievable sound! I've been a Sonos user for years and anticipated this release. Took a while to purchase as I have every other soundbar Sonos makes. This passes all expectations, highly recommended for anyone even considering it. If you're hear and reading the reviews, you're already there and pretty much aware of the capabilities of this speaker. Might as well make the right move and purchase.
