    Excellent soundbar that provides customizations to suppress sound to not wake my wife or kids, and supports ATMOS. Highly recommended product.

    Arc for 3D sound that consumes your entertainment

    So I have two of theses arcs that i purchased from BestBuy. (by the way they are hard to get hold of but BestBuy managed to get them to me way ahead of time!!!- great job BestBuy) I have an arch installed in our bedroom connected to the tv via HDMI ARC and I have an arc in the living room. This bar really projects sound like you will never believe. The marketing material talks about 3D sound. it really does project sound as if the entire room is consumed and you have a 3D experience. I originally thought i would need other additional equipment. My room is a large room 20x20 and this one arc is more than adequate for the room

    Sounds great paired with 2 ERA 300, Gen3 sub and 2 Fives. (I grouped the Fives separately on the app and only use them for music) The Arc, Sub & 2 ERA 300's provide awesome surround sound for movies, and all 6 components together provide incredible sound for music.

    Very nice product. Beautifully made with real attention to detail throughout. Must be used with their subwoofer for home theater use. Not enough low end punch on its own. Easy setup and calibration. Occasional lip-sync issues, but they seem to magically fix themselves. This is a really well designed and sophisticated product. Not to be confused with most "toy like" sound bars. Be sure to use with a TV that has eARC capability to take full advantage of its Atmos capabilities and for best sound quality. Not cheap, but few things really worth owning are. It just works, and that's saying a lot!! Highly recommended.

    Sonos Arc - absolutely phenomenal

    The Sonos Arc is absolutely phenomenal. I paired the Arc with the Sub Mini, the sound is fantastic, it's a quantum leap better compare to the LG 5 speakers surround I originally went for. Some people had issue with the speech clarity, so far I haven't noticed it, and also at night I used the speech enhanced feature, works great!

    The sound bar sounds incredible. I have trouble hearing and often times can’t differentiate some background noise from what I’m supposed to be hearing. This sound bar clearly articulates the variety for me. Combined with surrounding speakers, it’s really made my viewing experience more enjoyable.

    Easy to setup (very plug and play) and the sound quality is phenomenal. Literally sounds like subversive surround sound. Not mention, it looks great with the mount.

    Sound is good setup is easy as long as it stays connected to wifi and same system. If you have 2.5/5 ghz channels make sure you know how network works or someone that does if the Sonos system doesn’t seem to be connecting correcting.

    A bit on the pricey side but the sound quality is amazing. I purchased to update my set up from the original sound bar, the Arc has tons more features including dialogue sound booster which I thought was big improvement on the sound bar. The really cool thing about the arc is that when paired with the Sub you really have all that you need for a great sound setup, I still plan to get the Sono 1s for the full experience but this setup does not disappoint.

    High quality. Good left/right separation w/reasonable bass. Voices are crisp and clear. Dolby atmos is very cool. Works seamlessly with my LG OLED tv and with AirPlay 2.

    This purchase was an upgrade from the older Sonos sound bar. Sound is amazing! even at low levels. I also have a separate bass speaker which really compliments the sound.

    Since I've rarely seen Sonos on sale I finally got my chance. Bought this with the Gen 3 sub and (2) Era 100 speakers for a living room surround setup. Was a bit unsure of the wifi vs bluetooth connection but all components connected fairly easily and have been good since. So far everything sounds great and I can shake the house with it!

    Very impressed with the quality of the product and the sound is amazing. Bass is very good for a sound bar and sound is very clear. If you have it in your room you won't need a sub.

    If you enjoy Music or Movies and love Tech this is Definitely for you. I appreciate innovation, the perfect addition with building the ultimate home Cinema. Social distancing has created the desire to bring the movie theater experience into my home. I paired Sonos Arc with the Sonos sub with a pair of Sonos SL'S. The experience after the seamless integration into my home Network - (Wi-Fi) was mind-blowing. I also added the LG OLED CX for the perfect Dolby Atmos experience. Reason I didn't give 5 star! The only downside was actually a very enjoyable experience for my household was The True play setup. Luckily we have apple phones and tablets. But if you don't have a apple product you will lose out on trueplay experience. True play is like something out of a sci-fi movie. The Arc uses the mic from the Apple device sending signals back and forth while mapping the room the Arc is in. You move the Apple device around the room during trueplay setup. This allows the maximum experience the Sonos system sound literally filling everything crack and crevice with Dolby surround sound.

    Went to Best Buy to look at soundbars. Demo'd quite a few and of course, really liked the Sonos offerings. However, they're on the pricier side. The rep we worked with mentioned that what was on the floor was the brand new model but their site carried the previous one that had just dropped in price by $300. On his recommendation we went with that one and it's been great!

    Upgraded from the previous $800 sound bar and happy I did. I upgraded for the Dolby Atmos and it delivers! The née look and features are also great. Still a pricey device though.
