Great audio and very user friendly. Can Bluetooth, use Sonos app, or connect through TV.

There’s so much performance pushed out of this sound bar. The quality of sound is amazing just with the bar by itself. I have added the Sonos Sub4 and the pair is excellent.

I don’t get it. With all the complicated set up and optimization routines combined with the marketing hype I should be happy as a pig in dirt. I combined this with their remote sub. Only the best for me and mine so go big or go home. I shoulda went home.
Worst thing: The audio level imbalance for most any TV show or movie is horrible. If you set the volume to hear the voices when an action scene hits it will hit so loud it knocks us out of our seats scrambling to turn down the volume. After that we can no longer hear the dialogue. This is for all streaming services and DVDs (what’s that?). As an engineer I went through all the settings and used the automatic sound set up routine built into the system. This sound bar might be great for a frat house movie night, but not for your average quiet home den.
Next Worst Thing: Volume is digital notching. The system is all digital, including the volume control. So instead of a nice linear volume level you get digital notched volume. So the lowest setting is zero volume but one click up is too loud for late-nite viewing while someone is sleeping. There is no control over this. It’s a very synthetic experience and rude.
Next: The system cannot be used or set up without using a flaky app. No plugging this thing in and go. It needs to talk to your phone and more importantly to it’s mothership somewhere. If you have a cabin in the woods don’t expect for this $$$$ to do anything.
Lastly: Don’t buy into the hype that this is the best
I just set up another TV with another brand sound bar which was less than half the price and it works so good I am ready to dump my Arc Ultra and go foe something like that.

Arc Ultra Easy App set-up, sound is better than expected in small living room space (240 sq ft), clear crisp vocals on music. Speaker responds well to verbal instructions with microphone turned on, nice adder feature. Will be adding the Mini-Sub to increase bass.

Sound bar is a great improvement over my 10 year old Vizio. Does not have a full atmos bubble by its self. But I added 2x era 300’s and a gen 4 sub and the entire system is incredible.

Amazing sound. Set up with a breeze since I’m upgrading the from the ARC to the ARC ULTRA. I already own the ERAS 300 for the surround effect and the Sub Gen 3. The bluetooth option was needed. Like many have said before, the lack/missing support for DTS:X and at least one more additional HDMI port would be a much appreciated. Overall the Sonos ARC ULTRA does deliver amazing sound

This is a Geek Squad favorite and now a favorite of ours too! The sound quality on this Arc is amazing! This Sonos system is awesome! The Geek Squad set it for us. Unbelievable sound for the tv and music!!

I did my research, went back and forth on which wireless speaker system to buy, and I am incredibly happy with my final decision. The Arc Utra, paired with two ERA 100's for rear surrounds, and a Sub 4 rocks. I was skeptical of buying wireless, but I am converted.
