SonosARC White

I have come from a 15 year old pioneer av receiver with wharfedale diamond 9.1 speakers that i thought were great. This sonos arc is a huge upgrade from those speakers in stereo. I havnt experienced dolby atmos or been able to set up true play yet but I can say from amazon resale at £500 well worth it. The product sounds great, good speach, base and spacial sound. Not as good spacial as seperate 5.1 i havnt felt that the sound is coming from behind. Maybe when i watch a dolby atmos it will do it. You get good explosions and glass breaking and it is all balenced and doesn't over power speach. Great purchase and from amazon resale it has no defects that I can see, could be brand new for what I could tell aprat from the box showing signs of being opened up before. So happy with this purchase that I am reviewing it after watching one film.

Bought this to replace a Sonos Beam that I had for a number of years as I now have a 55" tv and thought I'd have a change.Very easy to install into my system although I had to de-link my Sonos rears and sub before removing the beam. Then add the Arc and follow the app instructions to re-dd my Sonos surrounds and sub, all sorted.As you'd expect works well, sounds fantastic and suits the larger tv.

Upgraded from a Sony bar. This thing blows it out the water. Good mid range, enough base for me. Not really used height channels yet but look forward to it. Hoping Santa brings me some surrounds to complete the set 😄

This item is an original and sounds lovely with or without the Bass unit. Although, when you can afford the Bass box I'd recommend you spend the money.If you choose to place this item on the wall. I'd recommend that you do not buy the original bracket. Reason being that it's Wobbly (unless that's what you want)?There is a basic bracket that is a one piece if I remember. I have done a review of it so look me up?If you have a nice 😇 DIY Daddy like my Daughter has. You'll find it easy to hang.The only negative about this item. 🥁Is that there is a Newer version out already (2024). Still, if you are not too fussed then save a few £££'s buy this one. 👍🏾👍🏾

I’ve downsized from a B&W M1 package, Denon receiver and large sub, so was not expecting to be as impressed as I am! Dialogue is crystal clear, decent width to the sound and excellent with music.I was tired of the satellite speakers taking over our living room, so there is a compromise if you don’t buy SL surrounds but not as big a miss as would have thought.For those not coming from a full surround package, this is superb for music and movies with a decent amount of bass and should satisfy.Personally, I will need the Sub Gen 3 to get back the full oomph and some extra separation but am thoroughly impressed as it is!The Sonos S2 app is particularly impressive with a decent amount of flexibility without overdoing the complexity.Was sceptical about the Sonos hype but am now sold and can’t wait to receive the Sonos Sub to complete my setup.

First off, the less good This is not cheap. Second, connectivity is not great (how much would it have hurt to add Bluetooth?) Third is an exacerbating factor of the other two, namely that I had to add an additional bit of kit (HDFury Arcana) to get it to work with my projector, as projectors don't have eARC.So why did I buy it? It reviewed as the best sounding soundbar for Dolby Atmos, and in general. So is it? I don't know, but it does sound great; even prior to fitting and calibration it sounded fantastic on my go-to test clip (opening scenes from Thor:Ragnarok) and hinted at providing immersive sound once calibration was done. Might be a little bass-light, but I'll deal with that if I need to.Would I recommend? I'd be surprised if you can't get better bang-for-buck, but it's certainly a nice bit of kit.

I have a few of these Sonos products now and am hooked.Add a sub woofer and a couple of surround sound speakers and immerse yourself in to a rich 4d sound

I bought this sound bar for my home movie system where I run a DVD player and projector from the rear of the room. Everything works well with my motorised screen and excellent picture quality. Then I try to switch on the sound bar. It has an always on system with no physical switches so you have to use the DVD remote to hook up using BLUETOOTH. Then you discover that your £600 SONOS fantastic kit has no BLUETOOTH. It wants an old fashioned HDMI cable. Who want to run a HDMI cable across the room to ruin an otherwise perfect set up? All I can say is avoid this expensive waste of space at all costs. It is old school technology and should be selling for £100 tops and it is only useful to hook up to a TV as long as the bar sits right in front. Gone for a SAMSUNG bar at half the price with all the latest tech that SONOS does not have unless you are willing to spend £1000 - seriously why would you? The sound is even better than SONOS which appears to me to be nothing but hyped up image and silly money.
