    I purchased this unit after returning a Beam Gen 2 because of issues. Unfortunately, the Arc Ultra suffers from the same major issues: 1. Very frustrating setup with many false starts and do-overs. 2. Random, uncommanded volume jumps during play. I’m talking LARGE volume jumps. So I returned the Arc Ultra. It’s a shame because the sound quality is so good. If Sonos corrects the aforementioned problems I’d consider one of their products in the future, but not now.

      Thank you for sharing your experience with the Arc Ultra. We’re glad to know you enjoyed the sound quality, but we regret the frustrations with the setup process and volume inconsistencies. The issues you describe with setup and unexpected volume jumps are not typical, and it’s understandable how these interruptions could impact your enjoyment.

      If you’re ever open to giving Sonos another try, we’d love to help you troubleshoot these challenges directly to make the setup smoother and address the volume concerns. Your feedback is essential as we continually work to improve the experience, and we hope to regain your confidence in the future. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at support.sonos.com if you have more feedback or need further assistance. john.milton

    Love the Sonos compatibility but the sound bars alone are not carrying the wattage to be really loud on it's own.

    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.

    Horrible setup and frequent disconnects. The app and control is poorly implemented. The sound profile is decent but once paired with sub and era 300’s the room correction ruins the supposed integration. There are better soundbar options for 1/2 price. I will not be keeping it with existing issues.

    When it worked, sound was awesome. App on iPhone was unstable at best. One minute we would be watching a movie and all was great, few minutes later and the surrounds would drop off and next to impossible to reconnect. Spent an hour on the phone with a BestBuy tech with no resolution. While returning, two other customers were returning their Sonos purchases for the same reasons. If the app issue was resolved, they would be great.

    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.
