”For yet another year, the Sonos multi-room system remains the best all-rounder.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2023 Product of the Year.
Premium sound
With no fewer than 11 Class-D amps and speakers packed into its sleek lines, the Sonos Arc has the muscle to match the mightiest movies and music. Featuring eight, dedicated woofer units you not only get natural vocals but also class-leading bass and the dynamic punch to bring soundtracks and music to live.
Immersive, ‘arc’ of audio
With three, precisely angled, silk dome tweeters, the Arc spreads the sound widely. Using a left/centre/right configuration, you get a ‘wall of sound’ for enveloping audio.
Adjustable settings
For personalised sound, use the Sonos app to adjust bass, treble and loudness. Speech Enhancement mode optimises vocal clarity – ideal for documentaries and sports commentary. Night Sound reduces the intensity of sound, making it less intrusive for others around your home.
The Trueplay revolution - giving you tailored sound
The Sonos Arc also features revolutionary Trueplay technology. Trueplay scans your room, analyses the results and then fine-tunes the speaker for the ideal listening experience. Whether your room is large or small, densely furnished or minimalist, the Arc adapts to give the most natural and realistic sound possible (iOS device required).
Expand to multi-channel – with Dolby Atmos support
Highly impressive on its own, you can take the Arc to the next level by adding a Sonos Sub and a pair of One SL speakers for incredible 5.1 channel surround sound. As a bonus, because of the wireless mesh system, no speaker cables are required. The latest Sonos surround system now supports Dolby Atmos encoded movies, giving you an even more cinematic sound.
Effortless control – including Sonos S2 and Apple AirPlay 2
Download the latest Sonos S2 app and enjoy the smartest control app to date. With new features, usability updates and more personalisation, the S2 app gives enhancements all-round - both now and for the future. With AirPlay 2 also covered, you can stream directly from your Apple devices or ask Siri to play your favourites from Apple Music throughout your home.
Or use voice control – with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant
Find the right music for every moment on Spotify. Search any artist or song, create and share playlists, and get personalized recommendations. Listen on Sonos and control the music with your voice, the Spotify app or the Sonos app. With four, far-field microphones on board, Arc can hear you – even from the other side of the room. (Spotify Premium account required for full features).
Control much more
Play songs, check news and traffic, manage smart devices and enjoy all those other helpful Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant skills using a single Sonos Arc speaker.
Privacy when you want it
Sonos understands that your privacy is important. For this reason, when the microphone LED is on, Alexa is ready for voice commands. When the light is off, the microphone is off.
Easy setup
Connecting the Arc is easy. Simply connect to the mains then plug in your TV via HDMI. An optical digital input is also standard. For streamlined control, an Infrared sensor syncs with your TV’s remote, giving one-remote convenience.
The Sonos system
Sonos gets better when you add more speakers. Play a movie in your living room, a podcast in the kitchen or the same music across all your Sonos speakers – flexibility is key. The latest Sonos components link via your home Wi-Fi but for very best results, linking one component to an Ethernet connection gives the most stable solution.
Experience premium sound from all your music and movies, with the Sonos Arc.

Great product, great price.
This was my first purchase from Richer Sounds. I had seen the product on a competitors website at a cheaper price but contacted their telesales team to see if they could beat it. The phone was answered almost immediately and I spoke to Kieren from their Reading store and he was extremely helpful. He was able to agree a revised price which I felt was fair given the 6 year warranty being offered by Richer Sounds. Their website talks about wanting customers for life. If their customer service is this good then I can honestly say they have bagged me for life. This is especially true when they promise to price match and then beat offers available elsewhere! As for the product itself, I am very pleased so far. However, please don’t think this soundbar in its own is a replacement/alternative to surround sound, as it’s not. However, what it does offer is a very capable soundbar with a wide soundstage and decent Atmos effects for Dolby Atmos content. The speaker can get loud and, as with all Sonos products, has pretty much zero distortion on the high end. This product is really designed for those who already own or plan to own more Sonos products. The ecosystem Sonos has created works well and this allows for multi room audio. I have a Sonos 5 and this works seamlessly alongside the Arc for multi room audio. In future I plan on building out this system to include rears, and a sub and I will definitely be looking to return to Richer Sounds when I do. Yes there are better soundbars on the market but none quite offer the whole package offered by Sonos. Just buy it and do so from Richer Sounds you won’t regret it!

Amazing sound without a full hi-fi stack
I was pretty sceptical about the Sonos being able to provide convincing Atmos for movies at home but, I have been blown away by it's ability! One thing which would be nice is a simple Bluetooth or aux connection but, you can connect the Sonos app to pretty much everything, including bandcamp which I wasn't expecting.

No Trueplay with brand new iPad Pro
I bought this expensive soundbar for all it was supposed to deliver. The first thing I discovered was that Trueplay tuning is NOT supported on my brand new iPadPro 2023, or on my old iPhone SE. I expected better from the market leader. Yes, the sound I can get is very nice, but not nearly eight hundred quid nicer than my old cheapo bar. I feel as if Sonos can't be bothered to keep up with their own flagship product. There really is no excuse for this failure to deliver. It is tantamount to cheating the customer.

Great sound and features to link with other Sonos
Having purchased the Arc yesterday (25th November) we are still getting used to its features. We are however very impressed with the quality of the sound. We have set up a link to our Move and are now able to play music through the Arc, the Move, or both simultaineously. In due course we will purchase additional speakers to extend our options.

Good but not wowed
It might be more down to our TV only having HDMI ARC not eARC but the Sonos Arc and sub are good, you can really tell the difference from just TV Speakers but if honest I’m not blown away and think you’d get similar experience with cheaper setup. We will be changing our TV down the line which will include eARC so be interesting to see if that makes the difference. The sub is really good, nice film rumbling but not getting much wow factor from the Arc. Was expecting a bit more in terms of surround sound and overhead effects but not really got that. If it wasn’t for the sub adding the bass I think I’d be very dissatisfied if just the Arc on its own. Maybe it’s me expecting too much or maybe it’s down to our Samsung TV only having hdmi ARC??

Great sound, really fiddly set up
I'm really happy with the sound bar but setting it up on my network was a real pain - kept going around in circles but eventually got it done. Would be 5 stars but for that.
