Excellent sound for everything from Dolby Atmos movies to jazz piano, All-in-one unit doesn't need a subwoofer, Feature-packed including voice assistant and multiroom music
Single HMDI eARC port limits Atmos, More expensive than other single-bar competitors, No Bluetooth streaming
Exceptional audio quality for the price, Can be expanded with a wireless subwoofer and surround speakers, Your choice of Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, Best-in-class multi-room audio features (plus support for AirPlay 2)
Relies too heavily on the capabilities of the TV it will be connected to, Only one HDMI port, No support for any DTS codecs
The Sonos Arc is a great soundbar, but it would be even better if it had two HDMI ports to get around the limitations of TVs that lack eARC support...

Attractive, curved design, Clear vocals and focused sound, Strong, Sonos-quality bass, Alexa and Google Assistant built-in, Meshes with existing Sonos systems
Expensive, Very large
If you’re a Sonos fan with some money to spend, you won’t find a more satisfying soundbar than the Arc. Its Dolby Atmos support and speech enhancement feature bring the movie theater experience to your living room, plus it looks sleeker than a lot of its...

Full, immersive sound; wide stereo field for music listening, full Atmos support for movies; AirPlay 2 support and easy setup
As wide as many 60inch TVs, the Arc's 45inch width may prove too wide for some setups and stands; no HDMI passthrough makes Atmos a trick for many setups; the $799 price tag makes it a very considered purchase

Excellent audio quality for TV and music, Handsome design should blend into most decor, Trueplay auto-tuning takes the pain out of EQ setup, Sounds even better with easily-added wireless rear speakers
The Dolby Atmos ecosystem is frustratingly patchy, Only compatible with other speakers running Sonos S2, Can't add dedicated overhead speakers for Atmos
As with so many Sonos products before it, part of Arc's charm is its convenience. One speaker, one power cable, one HDMI cable – all three of which are in the box – and in theory you're up and running. Any subsequent frustration comes from the nature of t...
Improved sound stage vs. Playbar, Decent bass, clear vocals, Dolby Atmos support via eARC, Expandable: Rear speakers & subwoofer, Sonos multi-room
No HDMI input (only eARC), Unconvincing Atmos, Lacks mid-range control, Choice of materials
With Arc, Sonos has launched its first Dolby Atmos-capable product and the ability to wirelessly connect rear speakers and a subwoofer to the soundbar make it versatile choice with a reasonable starting price, although the full package is as expensive as...
Big, room-filling sound, Dolby Atmos support, Low-profile build, Easy to set up and use
Pricey, Plastic body really attracts dust, Atmos can be difficult to set up
Source: Daniel Bader / Android CentralThere aren't many straight-up competitors to the Sonos Arc that offer as many features in as accessible a package. You have some products, the $799 Bose Soundbar 700, that is almost all the way there but lacks Atmos s...

Stellar sound for music and TV, Dolby Atmos, Automatically adjusts to content and additional speakers,
A single HDMI input, Expansion gets pricey quickly, Sound favors treble at high volumes, Summary, Sonos has finally given us an upgrade to the Playbar, and it's impressive. The Arc has an improved design, modern features and stellar sound. Like the Beam,
Sonos has finally given us an upgrade to the Playbar, and it's impressive. The Arc has an improved design, modern features and stellar sound. Like the Beam, it only has one HDMI port, which will be an issue for some. However, if you have a TV that support...
Excellent Dolby Atmos 5.0.2 (5.1.2 with the Sub), Room-shaking sub, Premium product at a premium price, Part of the Sonos multi-room experience, Rear surrounds add extra depth
ou need a DA TV and HDMI eARC to make the best use of this, No BT or Chromecast for music, You should run Trueplay to t, Long – make sure it fits your TV stand
