Best purchase ever
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best soundbar I have ever had! I used it with a projector setup so I did need a separate audio extractor to send the audio signal to the soundbar and not the projector. Setup was very easy with the Sonos app, just plug in the power and the app finds the soundbar to finish the setup on your phone. The sound alone is amazing but paired with the Sonos subwoofer it brings it to another level!!

Beautiful Heavenly Sound
|Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sonos Arc is amazing and honestly I can't recommend it enough. Not only is it eARC compatible but it also you can stream music from it from the Sonos App which is fantastic. You can also use it to play Music as an alarm which is absolutely smart and I love it

No Regrets
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I cannot say enough good things about the Arc. Love it! I actually replaced my Sennheiser Ambeo soundbar with the Arc, Sub, and Era 300's for surrounds in my movie room and could not be happier. This provided exceptional sound and is very easy to use. I wish you didn't have to rely on an app on the phone for so much and would prefer a physical remote (probably in the minority there) but this packs a punch.

Unmatched sound and easy set up.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed to fill a large space and compliment the new 85" Sony so this was where I landed. Sonos makes it so easy to set up and the sound of the Arc paired with the sub is just incredible. Better than anything I have ever heard. Trueplay is incredible and the sound comes from everywhere. Well worth the money. Recently added era 100s as surrounds and now this thing is crazy good.

Amazong sound!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound bar is installed in my media area and I got the subwoofer to go with it. Once it’s configured it sounds amazing. I tested it with the movie from Disney’s Shang-Chi as well as Apple’s Soldy atmos music. Simply amazing. For a wireless sub woofer it had grrat base and llos great in white. They only had to make minor adjustments to the levels in which the Sonos App made it super easy.

Brilliant Sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The SONOS ARC is the perfect addition to my 77" Sony A80J tv. The sound fills the room in such a pleasant way - theatre quality. Its not just "loud", but the sound literally encompasses you from every direction. I think this is the best sound bar you can buy. Although reasonably expensive, it is well worth the money. Very simple to set up as it is very intuitive, and the Sonos app guides you along the way.

Sonos Nailed it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’re using this Sonos Arc on an LG C9 with eARC. Streamed both Atmos and Non-Atmos movies and tv shows. It’s excellent. Voices are always clear which is important to me, after using true play, I got the sense of sound behind me in some action scenes in certain movies. I love the fact that all the drivers are always firing. When it detects Atmos, just like all our other Sound bars it does get louder and sound placement Is definitely more discrete. This Sound bar seems like it could fill a very open room. I’d put it up against our Bose Soundtouch 300 and I’d choose the Arc everytime because of Atmos and the fact that it’s ARC port actually works. The Sonos Arc falls somewhat short of our Samsung Q90R but most sound bars do and it will cost more than the Samsung to add rear speakers and a sub. As a stand alone bar though, this is the one to buy! You will not be disappointed, this thing is an absolute monster, MONSTER! We’re very happy with our purchase. Thanks Sonos!

Best sounds i've experienced in a soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Crisp Sound Punchy Bass Easy to setup Simple Design I paired with a mini-sub and I'm convinced thats all you need for a setup. I play music, watch movies. Definitely worth the money. Best setup if you are trying to avoid a 'box of things' regarding audio equipment.

Exceptions sound and bass
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My entire home is Sonos. While the app is completely awful, the sound of the speakers is excellent. The Arc was my latest Sonos product purchase and I was thinking about adding the subwoofer. After I unboxed and "installed" the Arc, I watched a sci-fi movie with the bass turned up and was stunned at how deep it was. Needless to say, I am no longer going to purchase the subwoofer, and have in fact had to reduce the level of the bass to the halfway point (all on the awful app) so my downstairs neighbor doesn't have to listen to thunderous AT-ATs breaking through her ceiling. This is my fourth and last sound bar, and I will say I get nice surround sound from two Sonos Ones as well.

Good sound, not so great at connecting.
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really had a hard time auto connecting it to any of the tvs in my house. The sound was great but it had to be connected each time the tv was turned on. Became too much and returned it. No remote either. All controlled by the app.

Duh, It's Sonos!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a Sonos, so yes you'll pay more for it, but it will just work. Sonos sound is amazing and about the best option out there unless you want to set up a 5.1.2 and all that goes along with that. I switched my voice service on it to the new "Hey Sonos" service and no issues at all. Dolby Atmos on a large TV with Dolby Vision will give you quite the experience, That being said to truly appreciate all the Arc offers I highly recommend going with two back speakers and the sub (hopefully we see the less expensive Sonos sub soon!) to truly get the Atmos expierence.

Sonos Arc with Dolby Atmos
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Impressive sound quality, easy to setup compared to my previous 5.1 speaker wired home theater setup. Sonos Arc conntected to LG OLED's HDMI Arc input connection. Fyi - must switch TV's settings from internal speaker to HDMI Arc connection. Next, simply download Sonos2 app and follow instructions. Sound quality is impressive, dialogue clearer, deeper bass, music more realistic. Try listening to music streaming and hear it for yourself. Highly recommended.

Nope. It’s not too expensive.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If this is in stock while you’re looking for a new sound bar do yourself a favor and buy it. I just upgraded from the Sonos Playbar and Sonos did it again! Yes the price is high but the quality and sound output is even higher. I’ve been at someone’s house and listened to their sound system and nothing. I mean absolutely nothing touches Sonos in my opinion. Upgrading to an 85” tv and playing PS5 I knew I had to upgrade to the new Arc. While it was limited to actually secure one as soon as I had all my rewards in and there was an Arc available I had it within a few days. The sleek design and sound quality is unmatched. Next up is an upgrade to my Sonos 1 surround speakers.

Best Soundbar (from a soundbar skeptic)
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sonos Arc is the best sounding, easiest set up soundbar I've ever tried. I'm a soundbar skeptic. But that turns out to be just because I've never heard anything as good as this. The connections to the tv were easy, the sound from the Sonos app to the device was awesome, and connecting it to my Google Home setup was a snap. And most of all, the sound, the sound, the sound. Fabulous from close or far. Movies or sports. I can't wait to play with all the settings and sound scenes to get the most out of it.

Great soundbar with one flaw!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Always wanted a Sonos soundbar. Had other brands but was always not 100% satisfied. After reading all the pre-sale hype about the Arc, decided to go for it. What impressive packaging. They say opening the product is part of the experience. This was! Unpacking was simple, as was installation. Once the app was downloaded, just followed along. It was finally time to give a listen. The sound was clear and clean. The bass became more noticeable as the volume increased. The bass was also clear and not distorted. There is no numeric volume level with the Arc. Possibly inconvenient but not deal breaker. The ability to enhance the dialogue is an excellent feature in the Arc. Have watched many movies where much of the dialogue is drowned out by music or background noise. It's nice to finally hear what the actors are saying. After using the Arc for about a month now, my only complaint or concern is that on 3 occasions the sound goes on and off intermittently when first turned on. Have not taken this up with Sonus yet. Like so many electronic things today, they require rebooting. Unplugged then replugged and works fine. Hoping this will not be a forever problem. This is the reason for the 4 star rating rather than 5 star. Otherwise, love my Sonos-Arc!

Sonos Arc FTW
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First of all let say the packaging of this speaker is a work of art itself! When you finally unwrap the cloth from the speaker out of the box, the Sonos Arc is beautifully finished and worthy to sit in front any TV. It has a simplistic professional look and sounds incredible. The Sonos app is easy to use and set up. My only issue with the app was it didn't recognize my TV arc hdmi, but the speaker does so not a big deal there. Sonos arc is the perfect complement to my lg oled and PS5. Asassins Creed Valhalla never sounded better :)

Good Sound, Well Pleased!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are very happy with the sound bar. Easy to use, good sound. If you are big into bass maybe a little light. Doesn't distort at medium to loud levels. Fills the room very nicely. We use the unit to support a TV but also listen to a good bit of music. App ties into the Apple environment very well. I was concerned about using WiFi as opposed to Bluetooth to feed the music to the unit, but we have not had any issues, Unit does not come with a mounting bracket ($80) which is really irritating considering the price of the unit and the simplicity of the bracket itself. I suspect you can find a sound bar for less money that sounds as good for less, but the Sonos operating system is very handy.
