    Fits right in place of where we wanted. Easy installation, but requires a wall bracket.

    I RETURNED THIS SOUND BAR BECAUSE IT WAS TOO COMPLEX FOR ME TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CAPABILITIES OF THE DEVICE. ALSO, WITHOUT THE SUBWOOFER THE SOUND WAS TOO FRONT LOADED AND 'IN YOUR FACE' TO BE AN ACCEPTABLE SOUNDBAR FOR THE SPACE I WAS IN.OVERALL IT WAS TOO COSTLY FOR WHAT I NEEDED.

    Got this sound bar along with the rear speakers and sub worked great and sounded great for the first two weeks but after that it was non stop problems with the system disconnecting having to reboot everyday to get it to work and hour long tech support calls with sonos. I ended up returning the system and got the Bose sound system which has been working great.

    Sound was good. Sub was inoperable so I had to swap it out. Volume wouldn’t adjust o rear speakers and their customer service is the worst I’ve dealt with. I literally had to tell their rep how the app worked.

    Complete Operational Failure on Best Buy

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This was the worst experience I had ever had with Best Buy and my decades long history of being a customer. I ordered the product on November 22nd, and they were a no show no call on delivery and install day on December 5th. I have been calling their home services team multiple times each week since trying to simply get my predicts (arc ultra and subwoofer) and they continue to say I will get a call back once they figure out their system and I never get a call. Multiple weeks late, I still don’t have the products I’ve paid for. Even after asking to simply change to a store pick-up, they cannot even do that. Seems like the local store handle this order has not done something on their end. All I can say is this is a complete failure on the operations team at Best Buy and they should be embarrassed. I have no other recourse then to submit these terrible review (nothing to do with the arc ultra as I have this in another home and absolutely love it!)c but this is all because I continue to call on and get told they are elevating the issue and will call back. AND THEY NEVER DO. A failure in all respects. I even have their former CFO as my neighbor and he couldn’t believe this is still going on. Unacceptable.

    Honestly not impressed with the ARC Ultra with Sub 4, crazy volume rages watching a movie, so queit to where you cant hear anything and next second it is blasting. This happens on all movies or just normal tv. My 10 year old Bose sounds better than this did and yes my TV supports Atmos.

    Might be too soon to review this product, but performance so far is less than stellar considering the price tag. I will spend more time on the settings to see if I can improve my experience.

    I have other Sonos products and admire their range of sound. The ARC Ultra is very disappointing. My smaller Sonos Beam soundbar has better sound. The Beam has a deeper and richer bass When playing music it reminds me of how AM radios used to sound

    I was up grading my original arc and sub and it actually sounded worse. Not much of difference if you already have the arc with sub. Maybe good if using without a sub bit when i hooked my sub to the ultra it lost a lot of bass.

      Thank you for your honest feedback on the Arc Ultra. We’re sorry to hear that the upgrade didn’t meet your expectations, especially with the bass performance when paired with your subwoofer. While the Arc Ultra is designed to provide enhanced clarity and a wider soundstage, it should ideally offer a seamless experience when integrated with your existing sub.

      If you’re open to further assistance, we’d recommend checking the subwoofer’s placement and settings in the app, as well as running Trueplay tuning again to optimize for your room’s acoustics. If the bass performance still feels lacking, our support team would be happy to dive deeper and troubleshoot this with you. Please let us know if you’d like further assistance and feel free to reach out at support.sonos.com. john.milton
