Glad I bought it, sound is fantastic
It took me a while to buy the Arc because for the money I was going to spend I wanted to do research and make sure I got the best "bang" for my bucks. Have it and am using it for 3 weeks now. LOVE IT. Easy to setup, no hassle there. Comes with the needed HDMI wire and everything else is easy to follow via the app. Sound is so good.

Sound goes up and down on its own!!! Fix this or replace it!
We had a AV firm put a SONOS system in our home and waited for the new ARC sound bar. Wish we hadn't and took the older BEAM sound bar. EXTREMELY disappointed. The ARC sound goes up and down sharply, even comes off mute on its own! It started infrequently and is now occurring every few minutes!!! SONOS needs to fix this ASAP or replace all these ARCs. The technician says we are not alone, this is a major SONOS problem! Don't buy until they fix the problem! We may have to buy a non-SONOS brand since the prior BEAM sound bar is no longer manufactured. Or just return the entire SONOS system.

    Very impressed after the first two weeks. Paired seamlessly with my six year old play:1's to create a surround sound experience. Audio control by saying “hey Sonos” works great.

    love it
    I have had my arc for about 2 years and i am absolutely in love with sonos for bringing out such an amazing speaker. This speaker is easy to set up and has clear crisp highs and heart pounding lows. Paired with doby atmos you can easily get lost in a movie or music.

    Amazing soundbar, far beyond all others!
    I have other Sonos speakers for rooms and outdoors but finally decided to upgrade my surround sound to take advantage of Dolby arc. The Sonos arc is AMAZING for my 12x12 room paired with One SL speakers. Now to pair with sub and I'm all-in. Replaces my Yamaha system with speakers in ceiling and sub, a true step up!

    Best soundbar I've ever owned!
    I have had several soundbars over the past 20 years or so and this is the best one by far. Simpler to set up than the competition, easily interfaces with television through HDMI (ArC), and looks clean! A little larger than the competition, but the sound is also fuller.

    Great sound!
    I was watching Interstellar and the sound effects that I missed on previous viewings was amazing. Enhances the movie watching experience ten fold.

    Exceeds expectations
    We bought the Arc because when we were watching movies the dialog was inaudible and the music and sound effects like car crashes or gunfire were ear piercing. There was no middle ground. The Arc completely solved the problem! Worth every penny. We replaced a high end sound bar with additional sub woofer with just the Arc and it was perfect!! Amazing results. Also very easy to set up in the Sonos app. We even put it behind the tv for a super clean look and it's amazing.

    Amazing Sound and Easy Setup
    We bought both the Arc and the Beam for the 2 TV's in our newly refinished basement and the sound is amazing - for both TV and music. So far, the only thing I wish was better is, when launching the SiriusXM app from within Sonos, the app lacks compared to launching directly from the SiriusXM app. Although, since this is all still new, it could be something that I just haven't figured out yet.

    I did it all by myself!
    This sound bar is so much better than my cheap one! There is no speech delay, the volume doesn't fluctuate, and it is a rich sound. And this old grandma installed it all by herself!

    A definite plus for your audio!
    Full, rich sound fills the whole room. The TV dialogue enhancer-speech enhancement-- is really great. I can actually hear most of the muted sounds made by the actors. I also like the night control so that loud sounds don't burst out from the speaker at an inappropriate time. It is worth the price!

    Yes but I hope I don't have to!!
    I had a Vizio before with 2 external speakers and subwoofer. I just purchased the Sonos Arc only and I LOVE IT!! I can finally hear my Sony tv without turning the volume all the way. I have Roku remote also. From opening the box to watching it took me about an hour. An hour because I had to collect ALLthe wires from my Vizio sound bar, speakers and subwoofer. The app was great to work through my older tv. Thank you for the app and making my hookup EASY

    Finally- great sound
    Can't say enough good things about the ARC. I had been using a pair of Apple Home Pods with my big OLED TV. Sound was mediocre and was always having issues with sound quality, lip sync, connectivity, etc. Connected the ARC, which was a snap, and the sound was finally filling the room. With eARC connection on my TV, I have true uncompressed Dolby and the ARC truly makes use of the expanded bandwidth. A perfect partner with my OLED TV.

    I finally upgraded my older Playbar to the Arc
    I loved my Playbar until I heard the Arc at my local Sonos dealer. The Arc is now paired with the Sub Gen3 and the fidelity experience has been enhanced substantially. Now I am looking forward to hearing what the addition of a pair of Era 300's for home theater will add to my entertainment collection.
