Sonos system looks and sounds great, perfect for basement space and even better when paired with sub and surround speakers. Would highly recommend

Fantastic sound. Super easy to set up. Reasonably sized. Would recommend

Amazing crisp sound with great base. No need to go to movies with this quality system at home. Goes perfectly with my Sony Bravia TV for a fully immersed experience 10/10

I love my new Sonos Arc soundbar! I have the Sub and 2 Ones as surrounds. Watching tv and movies is awesome now with the new Sonos kit. My t.v. doesn't have ARC or e-Arc, so I haven't been able to experience the Dolby Atmos yet, but a new T.V. will be the next purchase!

Fantastic sound! It is very easy to set up using the HDMI cable provided to HDMI ARC on back of the TV. I am looking forward to adding the subwoofer soon but not sure its needed. It easily integrates with Amazon Alexa as well. Buy it.... you wont be disappointed.

I bought this to go with my New Roku QLED TV. They look great together. This thing sounds awesome. It paired up my Sonos 2nd gen sub. With the earc port I need only the Roku remote for volume control

Sounds pretty great! And super easy install and setup

I used to work at Best Buy and I definitely sold many different soundbars. Yes this is one of the more expensive ones, but for those who understand that sometimes paying the extra dollar is worth it, then this is the item for you. I agree, the price is high, but definitely worth it. I have sonos all over my house now and when I have small kickbacks/smaller parties, I enjoy the fact that I can connect my Spotify to the entire house. Sonos Five in the kitchen/dining room, One SLs in 3 different bedrooms, Move in the backyard, and the entire surround setup in the living room with the Arc. Amazing sound quality, totally worth every dime.

Bought this for my Dad as a father's day gift and he cannot stop raving about this soundbar. He has been a audio engineer for over 30 years and he is deeply impressed by the sound created in this single package. Although it was a little tough for him to setup, anyone who is even a little tech savvy should have no issue. This thing is expensive, but absolutely worth it due to the quality of sound, and will greatly improve your viewing experience.

Even though this is now last gen, it packs a punch and is a hugh upgrade over normal tv speakers.

I have this in the bedroom and the Ultra in the living room. I would say very close with the exception of the motion sound. Bought it open box and was shocked when i picked it up. Literally no box, no power cord, just handed me the soundbar.

Sonos soundbar. Easy to setup and best sound system I ever had for decades.

The Sonos Arc is awesome when you have equipment that can take advantage of Dolby ATMOS! The sound flys around the entire room! The only issue I have with the Sonos Arc is that it only has one HDMI port that you have to use to connect to your HDMI eArc/Arc port on your TV. If you don’t have an eArc port the best you will get is Dolby Digital+ which is just shy of Dolby ATMOS quality. This is the case for me right now. If the Sonos Arc had a second HDMI port I could connect my 4K Apple TV directly to it which would allow me to get Dolby Digital+, I am limited to Dolby Digital only via the AppleTV right now.

Arc sounds good, very good. As does the mini sub and one SLs. High quality speakers with a simple to use ecosystem full of options. So why did I return it? Simply put, the surround effects did not meet expectations. Atmos rarely sounded like Atmos, and I never felt there was a bubble of sound around me. The front soundstage was disappointingly narrow, perhaps because my living room is a bit open on the right side. My living room is 12x20 fwiw. The Atmos demos felt broken up and not enveloping like they should. There was no surround precision. I tried every setting change, max height channel, multiple true play calibrations, it never did it for me. Meanwhile, Sonos pushes out firmware updates that seem to make things worse. I couldnt wait any longer. Music sounded amazing, super clear and with great separation, especially spatial audio. Ultimately, I went to Best Buy and heard the Samsung Q930 and it immediately blew me away. It was everything I wanted from the arc. Movies sounded cinematic finally. I will post my review for that, but ultimately I returned the Arc and aside from performance, I never really cared for the big round shape of it. I do miss the mini sub, that thing was amazing.

Purchased the Sonos Beam and it sounded like it, sound was narrow and flat. Upgraded to the Arc, it has a much wider sound stage and fuller bass response as it has twice the drivers. I have the Arc paired with Ikea Symfonisk rear speakers hacked with a high level input to a 12in MTX home theater sub, skipping the Sonos sub gen3 for now. Unfortunately Sonos doesn't have an additional HDMI input to take advantage of Dolby Atmos so I upgraded to the Sony 65 A8H that has the necessary e-Arc HDMI port. Atmos is available on select titles within a few streaming services ie Space Force on Netflix but Schitt's Creeks same service does not produce Atmos. Overall the soundbar sounds great but don't let the hype fool you its a single soundbar and doesn't provide enough standalone for my liking and for the price you could get more like the Vizio Elevate full surround 5.1.4 which has excessive inputs and could produce Atmos on an older TV with compatible device such as Nvidia-SHIELD. I'll keep the Arc as it was what I wanted but the full package is just so dàmn expensive.

Great sound, Sonos app makes it easy to do on the fly sound adjustments. As they say it does fill the room with sound. My wife and I are in our 60’s,we don’t have the hearing we used to. I spent $$$$ trying to get a good sound for watching TV and movies. The difference between soft voices and the dramatic sound had me constantly adjusting the volume so we could he the dialogue. With the app i adjust it 1 time and I’m done. I could not achieve this with other systems. Love it!,,,

This thing is impressive- takes care of center, left, and right front speakers in theater setup. Sound quality is impressive and music with the sub is awesome. EASY set up, no wires going everywhere

Well opened the huge box.. no remote control? On the pricey side. Easy hookup, sounds radiates up well to fill the room with robust sound also when watching tv voices very clear. Replaced a Bose 700 sound bar …. And so far very pleased- definitely an improvement App easy to work with… easily programmed tv remote Be sure you have plenty of room this is a large speaker - I’m using with a 55 inch tv and speaker is as long as the tv.

So, I know all the reviews out there have touted the Sonos ARC as one of the best, but the cost was a little higher than most, and I thought that was just the "Sonos" tax...you know, what you have to pay for the name brand and whatnot. I was wrong. It is def worth the extra cost over the mid to lower range of soundbars. I bought the yamaha one before this, and thought it sounded fine, but a little thin throughout the mid range. Maybe almost a bit "tin-y". So, my wife convinced me to upgrade and get this instead. I'm so happy she did. It really fills the room with sound and you can feel the warmth of the sound cascade down. This is true with TV and movie sounds, but especially true when playing music. Even if you think that it might be a jump up from those that are highly rated in the $200-300 range, but let me tell you, it will be worth every cent to do so. I couldn't be happier with the purchase!

The Sonos Arc is a good Soundbar. Is it worth the price..well that is up to each individual. The setup is super easy. Instructions are clearly written. The unit is heavy and you could hurt someone with it. The build quality is great! Prior to purchase you need to evaluate the following: 1) Does your TV have Atmos Capability? If it doesn't you will NOT get the full experience of the soundbar and you will wonder why you spent so much money. My Samsung TV had Atmos Capability so I am good. A lot of people who negatively review the Arc did not evaluate their current TV prior to purchase. If you have a soundbar currently connected to your TV, highly recommend you remove it and reset TV sound settings prior to installing the Arc. Why? Your TV, especially, if Samsung will transfer the settings of your current soundbar to the Arc causing you issues with the Sonos App settings. My issue with the soundbar is that while moving between TV channels the sound fluctuates high / low. I can't find a way to stabilize via the App or TV settings. Honestly I am not sure whether Samsung, AT&T Uverse or Sonos should be blamed. My TV did manage the fluctuations in TV Channel volume prior to the soundbar installation.
