    Purchased a 2nd Arc because I’m so happy with the first. Impressive on every level. Sonos ecosystem is the best. Works seamlessly with LG CX and Apple TV. Love eARC and Dolby atmos. About to try this with Sonos era 100 surrounds and will eventually get the sub.

    Great sound, especially if you get the Sonos subwoofer and Sonos One SL rear speakers. The sound feels the room and offers a wide stage of sound from the front of the TV. I like the fact that you can make a lot of adjustments to the soundbar, subwoofer, and rear speakers through the Sonos app, so you can customize the sound to your own preferences. I also play music through the soundbar and the sound is excellent. I also really like the rounded design of the Arc as it is not "boxy" like most other soundbars.

    Love the Arc from Sonos. The budget sound bad it replaced was all over the place with volume control. Dialogue was low and everything else was crazy loud. The Arc is great with dialogue and is the perfect addition to our household. Works flawlessly with our other sonos products. Highly recommend!!!

    I have to say I was very skeptical when I purchased this soundbar. I have researched and read hundreds of reviews for multiple soundbars and I just kept coming back to this one. I even was extremely careful unboxing this beast in case I hated it (I mean, come on, if I hate it at $799, it's going back). From the moment I removed my old soundbar and plugged this in, I have had a smile on my face. THIS THING IS AWESOME! It sounds better than the 5.1 system I have set up in my movie room, and all from one soundbar.

    It’s Sound Awesome but Do your Research!

    Sound is spectacular, app is mostly okay but be aware of what you are getting. As an employee and an owner I can attest: this does not support DTS tracks at all! If you have a DVD, Blu-Ray, and definitely any 4K Blu-rays that have any DTS tracks, you will not get any sound input to this device. You have either A) have a (4K) Blu-ray player or and Xbox that can convert DTS codec to Dolby and output solely Dolby or B) purchase third-party devices from HDFury that are almost the same cost as the soundbar. This does not use Bluetooth, so if anyone told you it did, unfortunately they were misled. It only uses WiFi and does not support Bluetooth, no Sonos device does at this point. If you are an Apple user, great! This product was made to work with Apple. If you’re not an Apple user, you can download the app, but you cannot use the Trueplay feature, which is Sonos’ self-calibration tool that leverages an iPhone’s microphone. These do support AirPlay, but since it does not support Bluetooth, you can’t really cast to this device, say for Spotify. I feel for those who don’t use Apple. You can add whatever Sonos speaker you want to the Arc as surrounds, like the One, One SL, Fives or even the older Play:1, Play:3, or Play:5 as long as the generation you have has support for the current Sonos S2 app. But only two devices will act as surrounds, if you want more speakers, you have to setup additional speakers in a separate group and pair them each (and yes each) time you want use them, with the app. These additional pairs can only be setup as a stereo pair (ugh) and you get stereo instead of atmos. When this works, it’s awesome and it does an excellent job especially paired with the sub and surrounds. If you don’t want to or don’t really have the capability of running wires and mounting speakers and are an Apple user, this is the soundbar for you. Unfortunately, I am not in a situation that will allow to do anything but wireless so it gets the job done and it does it well. My Blu-ray player will not output solely Dolby so I do have use my Xbox One-X, that will output solely Dolby, to watch movies with a DTS soundtrack, which is like half of them, no joke. It’s either Dolby or DTS and those are your chances, so make sure you have an Oppo (if you can find one), a Sony or and LG 4K Blu-ray player that can output solely Dolby. I will not get rid of this setup anytime soon, but had I known the limitations of this device, I would definitely have a completely different home theater setup than I do now.
