    Speaker sounds great and has good bass. Very little distortion at high volumes. It really shines when playing music.

    Sound quality is great. Better than what comes out the TV speakers. Takes some time to get used to since there’s no sub but it does sounds very nice. Connection is easy and don’t have any lag when watching a movie or live tv. Same with music it’s really good.

    Great sound bar

    Great sound bar with a wide sound stage. Height for ATMOS is ok. It is noticeable but not mind blowing. Bass is good for just a sound bar and since we don't put the volume very high the sub is not needed in our use case. Speech is also very clear. Sonos app works well and integrated with my computer easily and I'm able to access all my music from the soundbar. As for negatives there is not much. More HDMI ports would be nice. Overall I like the soundbar. I have tried a SL8 LG but I was not impressed by it.

    Arc Soundbar with Tow Era 300’s. Wow

    The most impressive sound I’ve heard from speakers of this size. I’m 70 years old and was having difficulty understanding words over loud background noise particularly in new movies and tv shows. This system solved the problem with ultimate sound quality and by adding the Era 300’s for surround sound I was able to control background noise volume.

    The arc is a great soundbar. We have other Sonos products so we already knew we would like it. We have it in a bedroom and it really fills the room with sound including atmos sounds. Get one if you need a great sound bar.

    I have the Arc, Sub and two One SL’s for three days now and man o man! This is the home theatre system I have dreamt of for years! I was originally going to purchase the system from Sonos.com but it kept being back ordered. Best Buy had all the parts, it just took a couple of weeks to get them all. I can only comment on the size of my living room, which is small (my house is 1150 sf) but with that said, it’s freaking amazing! Truly theatre surround sound! BLOWS MY MIND!

    I had a beam and decided to upgrade to the Arc so I cold take advantage of my LG C9's atmos capability. It is a significant ugrade. I have it paired with two One SL's and a Sonos Sub. The sounds is significantly better, dialogue clearer and the surround is day and night over the prior set up.

    Worthy Upgrade

    I used to have the previous generation Playbar in my surround set. I added the Arc in place of the Playbar. The Arc is definitely an upgrade for the HD audio. The sound stage is fuller and louder while sounding clear. Movies sound fantastic! As far as the Atmos portion, it has been hit and miss. The effect is not as impressive as I hoped. But to be fair, I have 10’ ceilings and Atmos in general is not great in most movie sound mixes. In general, it’s a worthy upgrade from the Playbar.

    Incredible sound quality. The Sonos app interface is extremely user friendly and the thought that went into the design is awesome. Your music runs directly from the app so you don't have to pause music Everytime your phone rings or you're looking at Instagram Reels. The Sonos Arc is a major upgrade to my JBL sound system that I was very fond of - would definitely recommend getting the Sub to compliment the sound before getting the Ones.

    Replaced an LG soundbar for a dramatically improved sound experience. The Sonos greatly improved the voice level which actually allows me to stop using closed captioning which can make movie watcing a drag. Best investment in audio entertainment, would highly recommend.

    This is my first sound bar I’ve ever purchased. I’ve had a few different surround sound systems in the past (cheaper systems) with 5+ speakers and this thing blows them out of the water. The sound quality is amazing and it feels like speakers are all over the room. Set up was fairly simple. Using the Sonos app it gives you step by step instructions on how to set up and calibrate for the best experience
