    Great sound bar! I plan on adding the Sub Gen3 soon to get the whole experience, but I enjoy how this connects easily to my tv and music apps from my phone. The Dolby Atmos is excellent, and I use the chat enhancement mode whenever the furnace is on to accentuate the dialogue of what I’m watching.

    Love the sound quality and easy connectivity. I would say it was well with the cost. Only cons are with volume, but it is just a sound bar.

    The soundbar is great. I think I overhyped myself for Dolby Atmos. I've streamed a lot of movies that has Atmos and I just don't seem to get the effect that I wanted with sounds swirling around me. But overall, the bass is really good and voices are crystal clear. I added two Sonos One SL's for rear and it adds to the overall experience.

    We love our Sonos Arc Soundbar. I'd highly recommend this soundbar. We wanted white, so we had to wait for a soundbar to be ordered. We're super satisfied with the sound and ease of use of this product. We had Magnolia install the soundbar. They did a great job, communicating often as we had some installlation limitations.

    If you haven't heard a Sonos speaker the sound is amazing, and the Sonos Arc is no different. And the setup is super simple. Just plug plug it in and follow the directions on the Sonos App to connect it to your wifi and add Sonos surround sound speakers if you have them. Love it!

    Looks great. Sounds excellent. Super easy setup. It does have nice bass for a soundbar unless you’re looking to feel it in your chest, which I understand. But I’ve had to lower the bass still when the kids are sleeping so it’s good. Sound is super crisp and clear.

    I am beyond happy with the original Sonos Arc that I already own. As I cannot imagine that its replacement is dramatically better, and this was a great deal, I purchased two. Now I have a fantastic sound system on a three of my tv’s. I also added the Sonos Mini Sub.

    Upgraded to the SONOS ARC for my living room (moved my SONOS Beam in to the bed room). With the SONOS Sub and 2 ONEs as rear surrounds, this SONOS setup rivals my dedicated 7.1 channel receiver and speaker system - in a much smaller footprint. Very easy to set up, easy to use, great sound.

    This Soundbar is Awesome! We have a Klipsch 7.1 surround sound system in our front room.My wife wanted the same sound in our bedroom when she streams her movies.It sounds Awesome and I didn't get a sub,it's not needed.But if you had one I can see that it would sound similar to our 7.1

    Finally Decided to Go for It....No Regrets!

    Have been waiting for quite awhile to finally bite the bullet and get the Arc. Previously we had a a fairly low end soundbar\subwoofer combo that was certainly adequate for our space, but it lacked the ability to provide richness in it's output. I originally planned to get the Sonos Sub as well, however decided to start with just the Arc, and wow! Even without the sub, the bass output and overarching EQ without much tweaking is excellent. The ability to tune from within the app for the physical space you have the Arc in was also very easy and provided a noticeable improvement as well. Definitely satisfied with the purchase and am questioning whether the addition of the sub would actually overwhelm the fairly modest room that we have our entertainment center in. This was our first foray into Sonos products, and I am a fan.

    Should have bought this sound bar years ago! 200% better audio than the sound system of the sony a9g. Easy installation/setup. Pricey but audio quality worth it.

    Best sonos sound bar for open concept living space

    I originally bought the beam, 2 one SL’s, and sub mini (when it came out) for my open concept living room with a 14’ vaulted ceiling and was thrilled with it over the LG soundbar/subwoofer. However, after an LG WebOS update my audio changed to pcm 7.1.4 which messed up the surround sound and made the one SL’s over power the beam. Plus the sound wasn’t as loud as it was in the past. Some research mentions that the arc would help solve some of the current’s issue so when I saw an open box arc for around $723, I scooped it up. I tested Top Gun and Stranger Things Season 4 episode 2. I could most definitely tell a difference as the sound felt like it was truly above and around me. While the beam did a good job, I learned it wasn’t idea for my space and will put it in a bedroom.

    The instructions for setup was very easy. All I did was take it out of the box, plug in the HDMI cable to the TV, plug in power and start enjoying it, once you turn tv on, the information on the screen was super easy to follow, no more than 10minutes total from unboxing to listening, Amazing sound, Love it!!!!

    Sound is incredible for a sound bar. So easy to connect to the system. Love that I can play music through the Sonos app as well as use for great sound from the TV. This is my 3rd Sonos Arc - clearly think very highly of them, but admittedly, they are expensive relative to other sound bars (which don't have the same level of connectivity and options... I guess you get what you pay for).
