    Amazing sound quality you expect from Sonos, it complete fills my home theater space. Seemless integration with my new Sonos Era 100 speakers for surround, and my older Sonos Subwoofer as well. Easy setup and integration!

    Replaced my 2013 YO SONOS Playbar!

    I replaced my original Sonos PLAYBAR with the Sonos Arc Ultra, and the upgrade is worth it. Dialogue clarity is excellent, with improved speech enhancement options that make voices easier to understand Bass performance is noticeably stronger than the PLAYBAR on its own Room tuning and overall balance are also better, especially in a modern TV setup. HDMI eARC, support for newer audio formats, Bluetooth, and updated connectivity make the Arc Ultra feel future-proof. Bottom line: If you want immersive sound and modern standards, the Arc Ultra is a worthy successor. If you’re happy with basic TV audio and don’t need Atmos, the PLAYBAR still holds up surprisingly well. I appreciate having the ability to turn on night mode and voice enhancement using voice commands and the SONOS app. Nice feature when you live in an apartment

    Excellent soundbar when paired with the Sonos Sub 4. If you dont want a whole complex home audio system then this is it. Sennheiser Ambeo products were next in line but I saw some mixed reveiws so I went with Sonos. Now with the arc and sub (& new hdmi cable) I'm basically at $2,000. Thats not an easy pill to swallow but I decided daddy needed a treat. The audio is great, the dialog is exceptional coming from a top-of-the-line Denon product. Set up was a breeze and it take a few extra minutes to run updates. If you are not super picky about audio, you could probably buy a handful of other 2.1 systems that will get you close for at least $1,200 less. If the money isnt an issue, pull the trigger and pick this up ASAP, dont think twice.

    I have other Sonos products and am impressed with those. I was hesitant on this purchase due to the price point, but overall I’m super happy with it and would do it again. The sound is amazing. The virtual surround sound is impressive. Dialog of regular tv is great. That was always a struggle with previous center channel speakers. They were too muddy. The bass is substantial for a sound bar. Not the equivalent as a dedicated sub but more than you could ask for from a sound bar. Can’t wait to complete the home theater with full surround and sub at some point.

    I gotta be honest the Sonos arc ultra was a huge pain to set up had to factory reset it about five times and when I connected to my TV, it actually sounded OK but it’s way too expensive to sound OK but it’s not bad though if you have the money for it

    The Sonos Arc Ultra has been a great upgrade to my home setup. Sound quality is clear, immersive, and noticeably fuller compared to standard TV audio. Dialogue is crisp, and the bass response adds depth without needing immediate adjustments. Setup was simple through the Sonos app, and integration with streaming services worked seamlessly. Overall, excellent performance and a premium sound experience that significantly improves movies and TV watching.

    I recently bought the Sonos Arc soundbar, and it has made a big difference in my home entertainment setup. From the moment i started using it, I could notice how much clearer and richer the sound was compared to my TV speakers. Everything sounds more detailed, whether I'm watching movies, listening to music, streaming shows. One of the best things about the Sonos Arc is the surround sound experience. The Dolby Atmos feature adds a nice effect, making scenes feel more realistic and immersive. Setting up the soundbar was very simple. It connected easily with my Short throw Projector and the Sonos app guided me through the process step by step. I also played the Trueplay tuning, which adjusts the sound based on the room, and it actually made a noticeable improvement. The app itself is easy to use and lets me control everything from my phone. I also appreciate how it works with other Sonos speakers. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the Sonos Arc. It's easy to set up simple to use. and offers excellent sound quality. It has truly upgraded my home audio experience, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality soundbar.

    I’m really impressed with this speaker. The sound quality is clear with strong bass and crisp highs, even at higher volumes. It connects easily via Bluetooth and stays connected without cutting out. The battery life is excellent and lasts me all day without needing to recharge. The design is sleek and feels durable, making it easy to take anywhere. Whether I’m using it for music, movies, or small gatherings, it performs great every time. For the price, this speaker definitely exceeds expectations. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a reliable speaker with great sound quality!

    Amazing sound but I have the Samsung Hq990D I think it was and I keep going back and forth and I can’t justify the extra 2k for this. If u want the best sound an money isn’t a issue go for it , the rear speakers when I buy them the sonos eras 300 I think it was are louder for sure there’s more height compared to the Samsung . When it came to music I preferred the Samsung it was louder to . When it comes to movies I enjoyed both . But if the Samsung is such a great deal that even for 2k I’d be thinking of sticking with the Samsung . I got the Samsung for 900$ and it comes with sub and wireless rears, but like I said if u want the best and moneys no issue sonos is amazing movie experience, if u are on a budget the Samsung q990D is absolutely amazing I’ve tried Lg as well the one that was like 1.6k but Samsung beat it again can’t go wrong .

    I’m extremely pleased with the Sonos Arc Ultra paired with the Sonos Sub 4 and two Sonos Era 300 speakers. The setup is clean and minimal, yet the sound is absolutely amazing—clear, powerful, and very well balanced across all ranges. Dialogue is crisp, bass is deep without being overwhelming, and the surround experience is immersive. This system exceeded my expectations, and I’m already looking forward to adding more components in the future. I also want to give credit to the team at Best Buy—the employees were very helpful, knowledgeable, and made the entire buying experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to build a premium home theater system.

    This is my first foray into higher end sound bars. I moved to Sonos from a $150 TCL soundbar. The sound quality is spectacular. It’s a massive difference from the cheap stuff. The soundbar does a great job isolating voices and making it easy to understand movies and shows. The atmos works well, but isn’t perfect. It depends a lot on where you are sitting in relation to the soundbar, too (head on, to the side, etc.) The biggest issue I had was, once I got it, I wanted more. This soundbar gives you a taste of what could be an OUTSTANDING audio set up. Naturally, I had to get the Sub Mini to go with it. Adding the sub makes this a 100% solutions for a basic high-end setup. You’ll want for nothing. Adding rear speakers takes it to the next level. Then you get a complete surround sound experience. Everything synced perfectly with the app and setup was fast. The EQ settings work well and make a noticeably impact. Let me reiterate - you can get this, and only this, and be perfectly happy. Blown away, even, by the fidelity and quality. However, Sonos makes it SO EASY to integrate other components that you may find yourself dropping another $1000 (or two…) and creating an amazing soundscape for yourself. Then, of course, you’ll be upgrading your TV because if the sound is so good the picture better be as well… I guess what I’m saying is that once you get a taste it can snowball ;) It’s a perfect jumping off point, though, as you can add to it over time.

    ​Purchasing the Sonos Arc Ultra from Best Buy was absolutely worth the investment. This soundbar delivers a truly immersive 9.1.4 Dolby Atmos experience, filling the room with detailed, three-dimensional sound that completely transforms movie nights and music streaming. The new Sound Motion woofer is a game-changer, providing surprisingly deep, clear bass from a sleek standalone unit, while the dedicated center channel ensures dialogue is crystal-clear—no more missing words during explosions. It integrates flawlessly with the Sonos app for easy setup, room tuning with Trueplay, and works seamlessly with my TV remote, making it the best all-in-one sound solution for anyone serious about home theater audio.

    Ultra is worth the extra money

    Just upgraded from the Arc, paired with a Gen 3 sub, to the Arc Ultra. The Ultra is louder, has better bass, and better clarity. It’s worth the upgrade. I appreciate the Bluetooth pairing that’s added so I can pair directly to the bar without needing to use the app. Compared to the Arc, the ultra is a few inches longer but has a lower profile since it’s an inch shorter. Love that I was able to use the same wall mount from the Arc. Overall happy with my purchase and lucky the Ultra was released within my return period from my Arc purchase.
