    This is truly a phenomenal sound bar. I appreciate bass so I paired it with a Sonos Sub (full size). Cinematic experiences and music are incredible. Still sounds good while walking through the house, but sound is definitely best right in front of it. I used the Sonos app to pair it with the Sonos Move 2 outside so I could have the same music playing inside and outside and it sounds GREAT.

    I didn’t think we could improve the sound coming from our Smart TV so I fought my husband’s wish to get an Arc Sonos Soundbar. We did finally purchase it and I am so glad we did! The sound quality is improved by 300%! We bought a very expensive latest and greatest TV but the sound now matches the picture because of the Arc Sonos Soundbar! Worth every penny!!

    I bought the sonaa soundbar for my husband for Christmas. The sound quality is amazingly crisp and clear. We had another soundbar that was very annoying when turned up at a higher volume. The sonas was well worth what we paid.

    We got our ARC yesterday after about a 3 week wait for it to be shipped. It only took a few minutes to connect it to the TV, SUB GEN 3, and the (2) One SLs. The sound is incredible. Worth every penny. We watched Dead Pool last night and the scrapyard scene at the end of the movie rattled the windows ( volume at approx. 65%) Can’t wait to watch more movies. Except for the buttered popcorn, there’s no reason to go to the movie theatre anymore. Yes. The sound is that good!

    I would’ve gave it 5 stars but here’s why I didn’t. I’m going to get straight to it. The quality sound that this system puts out is simply unmatched. Never heard a surround sound system like it before. BUT, here’s the downside to it. IT WILL NOT STAY CONNECTED TO MY TV (Samsung)! Evidently this is a known problem according to the Sonos community. When I was researching this issue I found that I’m not the only one by far. Every time I pause what I’m watching for more than 5 minutes or cut the tv off completely the system loses connection with the television. When that happens I have to disconnect the power from the soundbar for a couple of minutes then plug it back in. This issue isn’t something I expected from a product from Sonos especially when you’re paying the hefty price tag for it. FYI…I did everything that is recommended to fix this problem and I’m still having the same issues.

    I have the SONOS BEAM and it sounds awsome in my mancave paired with the Sonos ones and subwoofer which prompted me to upgrade the living room speakers and I choose the Arc. I listened to the Arc before pairing the subwoofer and Sonos ones and I was very impressed with the all around bass,treble, mids and highs. Very clean! I highly recommend! And after pairing the sub and the ones it got even better! I've gone thru countless surround systems and you get what you pay for. SONOS may not be the most expensive system or the cheapest but the quality speaks for it's self.

    Big sound!! Especially if you receive a lot of Dolby Atmos content. This is where the Arc shines. I have yet to really use it with music as I still prefer the stereo sound from the Play 5. But with spatial audio capabilities from Apple Music being supported in the near future, I may have to consider using it for all sound in my living room.

    Bought as an Excellent open box and it was missing the HDMI to optical adapter. First tried both top end Sp9 and Sp8 LG sound bars before this and were great but something about them just didn’t sound right even after tweaking. I had to run trueplay a few times to get it to sound right as it is a bit of a an art. Once I got it right holly cow this sounds amazing and extremely immersive. I still feel the price is a bit high especially since you really need to get the sub to make this sing but still give it 5 stars due to design and sound.

    Great sounding speaker. Wish it had a remote. And Don't little green flashing light in front middle of speaker. Makes me look down at it as I'm watching TV. Also no on screen prompts to adjust speaker. For the big bucks I paid for it you would think it would be better setup with it own on screen app.

    Had it not been for Martin ( a best buy team member) I would not have even known what sonos was. I was interested in bose or sony. I'm so happy I listened to Martin and bought the sonos. I had a couple early functionality issues that where based in user error. Overall the system is amazing. It gives amazing sound, and I look forward to purchasing more speakers. I have the sound bard and the sub.

    Best Soundbar on the Market ! And it’s not even close. I”ve tried all the soundbars on the market and the Arc destroys them all. Once you add a sub and the Sonos Ones or SL”s it’s Game Over. Sure you can buy a cheaper all in one Soundbar, But in a year’s time it’s obselete and replaced by a newer model and yours is half off and worthless. Save yourself the time now and just buy it. It sounds incredible. The Sub is world class ! The great thing about Sonos is you can upgrade at your own pace. Whenever you get the money just add whichever speaker you need to complete your home theater setup.

    I have been using bose 700 sound bar for last 2 years. Since it does not have Dolby atmos , was looking to setup a receiver with speakers. But good I met a person in best buy and he gave me confidence that this sonos arc can be a handy option if you live in apartment. Also subwoofer is an over kill for apartment living. So I went with the sound bar and the surround speakers. Initial 2 days I didn’t tune the equalizer and felt the sound bar to perform better. I was happy. Later when I tuned up the bass and reduced the treble I got what exactly I have been longing for. Given the screen shot for your reference. It’s sounding amazing. Worth the investment. While initial setup I faced issues. But I reset the new sound bar and was able to setup. I am planning to get the speaker stand. Will post more once that is setup as well.
