Customer Ratings & Reviews

bought this to replace a Roku soundbar which was great. However, it was an older streaming version that is no longer sold and was having issues. This soundbar is amazing! I coupled it with the mini sub and two wireless speakers for surround. I already have a Sonance by Sonos outdoor speaker system so they work seamlessly together. I can no play music in the house and backyard simultaneously or different on each. Sound quality is great as is the versatility.

This soundbar blew my mind after I got it set up with the Sonos app! It has a generous amount of front, side, and height firing speakers that make a clear and dynamic difference. It also has 4 small subs for bass if you do not want to get the Sub 4. These do a solid job and offer a decent amount of bass. But when you pair this soundbar with any of their subwoofers it has a completely realize depth that is worth the buy. Go check out the demo at your local store!

Excellent sound bar but make sure you watch enough media to justify it. Some media such as the news and YouTube just does not justify it. Only get if you watch action movies or anything along those lines.

Lots of sonos in my home. So i was pretty hyped up for this new ultra. Sounds great with dolby atmos. I have 2 full setups and more. One with original arc. One with arc ultra. Both setups have era 300s and one gen 3 sub. I personally very little change. Yes voices are a little clearer compared to original arc. But not enough to really notice going back and forth between the two setups. Either speaker great when setup with subs and rears. But no need for selling and upgrading.

Sound quality, tone separation and clarity is amazing! Voice clarity is awesome, even when the movie sound mixing is subpar. Great at separating voices from background music. Sounds like a home theater. Listening to music stations sounds like being at a concert. Looks like it was made for our 55”LG OLED UHD TV. Exact same size. So pleased!

excellent piece of equipment with great sound! I like the way it mounts to the bottom of the television unit, creating a nice compact and streamlined look

Haven’t purchased nor, kept up with today’s tech on sound systems. After my Bose broke after approximately 7 years (had it a long time), It was time to explore. I’ve had dreams of owning a Sonos and I went to look at them seriously. WOW! After looking at Bose, Sennheiser and Sony I went with Sonos and bought the Ultra Arc & Sub 4. Very happy. Set up was a bit tough but, live Customer Service guided me which was excellent. The AI wasn’t. I’m just month in to the system, all is great. Sound is amazing, especially the voice on movies in low volume at night when everyone’s asleep. The app to control is great IMO. There is great content on YT to acclimate (Peter Pee is my fav) to learn and adjust your system. While not cheap, make the move, buy Sonos it really is next level.

What a great product. The soundbar standalone can deliver outstanding performance. Of course if you need more cinematic experience, add the sub and rears any time

The clarity on this new soundbar is definitely better than the previous Arc (which in and of itself, was excellent!) It’s beautifully designed, feels lighter in weight and extremely easy to set up. This Arc Ultra now powers the media room, with the older Arc now paired with the living room tv.

I was skeptical that the Arc Ultra would would live up to the hype, but have been presently surprised. I have a small theater room (11x14) and was previously using a modest Sony soundbar (5.1) with wireless subwoofer. Having convinced myself that this was fine for such a small room, I was content. Then I heard the Arc in my daughter's house (in a very large room) and decided to take a look. I thought I went totally overboard with the Arc Ultra, but am more than satisfied with this device. Once I added the Sub Mini, the sound filled out nicely and provides a lush and enveloping experience. Also, the dialog enhancement is the best I have ever heard.

Purchased this soundbar the Sub4 and two ERA300 for rears. The soundbar itself is very good, my previous soundbar was an old Klipsch and it did the job but when it came to heavy tasks in moves it simply couldn’t keep up. The Arc Ultra is a different ball game, the speech enhancement helps a lot especially when it comes to movies with a lot of sounds. A perfect example in a movie setting would be The Matrix Collection, this soundbar has a more level playing field when it comes to demanding scenes where people are talking and there is more action in the background. One thing to keep in mind with the speech enhancement is the higher the setting the more sounds it will cut out to compensate for dialogue. The Spatial Audio setting is also a great feature simply use your cellphone as a microphone and walk around the room and the app will stage the system for the entire room. As far as price I feel like the soundbar itself is a fairly decent priced soundbar. You definitely get what you pay for when it comes to things like this. Having said that if you purchase the soundbar the sub and the rear speakers you're spending almost 3 grand. And if you add a second sub like I plan too you’re in almost 4 grand, for that price you can step into a different league. A good example would be the Nakamichi Dragon with 2 subs and rear speakers (with better components) for a similar price. All in all this is a great product especially if you want a very entry level audiophile style of system.

Best soundbar I've owned. Easy to set up and easy to use.

Awesome sound. I ran seven speakers in my theater room to get good sound. When I purchased the Arc Ultra, I was able to remove the seven speakers and have a better room filling sound with the Arc Ultra and the Sub 4 Subwoofer. And the use of the app make tweaking the sound very easy.

Great technology. Great performance. The price is high, but you're getting a lot. Using as a standalone with no plans to expand with sub or surrounds. Good for day to day TV viewing or the occasional Atmos blowout.

Excellent sounding speaker in setup with era 300s and sub gen4. I bought stands for the era 300s from Amazon that keep them at the perfect height. Run software that sets the sound levels for all the speakers and you will not be disappointed.

Spectacular. Replaced one of the better Samsung units with this and the Sub4 combo. It’s not even in the same league. Setup was a bit different than what I’m used to but I’d still buy this 10/10 times.

Great sounding bar, it completely fills the room. Was a breeze to set up. I will be getting rear speakers soon. As of now, there is enough bass with this bar that I won't have to get a sub. Bluetooth connectivity is a plus with the ultra!

Great Sound. Like that we can extend by adding additional speakers. Need a little patience when setting up on the app. But overall great sound for a great price

Sound quality vs original ARC....I wouldn't say the quality is better per say..definitely not better for music, however there is a noticable difference in the clarity of speech when watching movies. The sound stage also definitely seems wider. When I initially hooked it up I was a bit disappointed vs my old ARC but after a few days of getting used to the signature , I now believe it to be better for movie watching at least.

Free product, sound is excellent, although if you do not have an E arc port on your television, but have optical audio out you will only be getting Dolby 5.1 and will need to purchase the converter from SONOS
