5.0 out of 5 stars Works great with the Sonos One speakers for surround sound!
For years I've been wanting to have a home theater system. I've been listening to movies through my TV audio for far too long. I did HOURS upon HOURS of research before finally deciding on Sonos mainly due to the high ratings and the fact that the Sonos Arc was tested and listened to by academy award winning sound engineer, Chris Jenkins, who listened to the Sonos Arc himself and was very happy with the results.Now, before I continue I should add that your TV needs to be fairly new in order to work with Sonos Arc. I myself recently purchased a Samsung TU8000 which supports Dolby Atmos and eArc connection. If your TV only has Arc connection, it will still work, but not in the same manner as it would with eArc. In other words:Sonos eArc to TV Arc = Arc ConnectionSonos eArc to TV eArc = eArc ConnectionWhat's the difference? To put it simply, Arc stands for Audio Return Channel. eArc stands for ENHANCED Audio Return Channel. That means it can handle more advanced audio formats and higher audio quality, such as Dolby Atmos in this case. Now, if you do not have EITHER Arc or eArc on your TV, they also have an HDMI to optical adapter which comes in the box. Again, eArc on your TV is the BEST for audio, but Sonos is providing you with more than one option in case your TV is older.With that said, lets move on...The Sonos Arc by itself (without any speakers or subwoofers) sounds wonderful on its own! I actually questioned if I really needed a subwoofer or rear speakers because it sound excellent just by itself in my opinion. It has plenty of bass when listening to music or watching a movie. The audio is crystal clear. The voices are clear as well.However, I had already ordered the rear speakers which arrived in the mail a few days later. I connected them as well to the Arc and tested a few movies that support Dolby Atmos such as Star Wars and Zootopia. I must say I am extremely happy with this setup! The sound isn't as "jumpy" as other surround systems I've heard in the past (I'm talking years ago). For instance, if a train passes and you hear it go from the front to the rear speakers, it is smooth!! It doesn't just jump to the back speaker. It does it in a way that sounds realistic, similar to a high end movie theater. I love this! Star Wars sounds absolutely amazing as well! If you really want to test the sound of Atmos, I highly recommend the pod racing scene from Star Wars episode 1. I know, I know, it's not everyones favorite film. I'm just saying the Atmos surround sound within that scene is just a wonderful way to test out your new system. You will be amazed!Now, not all movies support Atmos. I've tested Dolby Digital audio, such as Harry Potter, and was pleasantly surprised as well. In order to change from Atmos to other audio formats, such as Dolby Digital, you need to do it from your TV settings. Sonos does not have a setting for it. Your TV will though. I did it with my Samsung TU8000 and simply turned off "Atmos" in settings which automatically switched it to Dolby Digital. The surround sound came on immediately once I did this.DTS:X is unfortunately NOT supported, which is a downside but because it supports other formats I let this slide. Harry Potter, for example, despite NOT being in Atmos still sounds wonderful in Dolby Digital.As for voice commands you have 2 options: Google or Alexa. I chose Alexa because that is what I have always had in my home. It is easy to play music using Bolo Music. The sound is excellent, especially songs with a lot of bass. In fact, the bass is so good that I cancelled my Subwoofer that I was planning to get. I MAY change my mind later, but for right now the bass on the Arc alone is so good that I just don't really feel I need the Subwoofer right now.Overall, I am very happy with my new home theater system. It offers great and more realistic surround sound compared to home theater systems I've listened to in the past. The setup is easy using the new Sonos App. I love the fact that it is so easy to switch from Bolo Music, to watching a movie or TV. It is aesthetically pleasing to the eye and the black blends in nicely to my black TV stand. Highly recommended!!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Just Excellent!
We have a narrow den with high ceilings. I knew I wanted an upfiring soundbar with Dolby Atmos, and I wanted to avoid a bunch of additional speakers because we don’t have a lot of room for them. The Arc was super easy to set up (maybe 20 minutes with the room testing). We watched the first Harry Potter movie tonight, and even though that has older sound, the sound quality was excellent. It even intrigued/scared our animals! 😂 We’ve ordered the subwoofer mini, although I’m not sure it is entirely necessary.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent sound bar with minor issues
Now that I have been using this sound bar for a few weeks, I am totally in love and glad I took the leap. I was mainly looking for a capable home theater system with wireless rear surrounds. I knew the beam would not cut it, so initially I bought a Playbar, a Sub, and two Ones. However, the sound from my Sony 5.1 home theater system was better, with a major limitation of the Playbar being that the voices were not clear (my family complained about this, too). Seeing the Arc had just come out and having read several reviews, I decided to return the Playbar and get an Arc instead. Actually, with the 5.1 Surround Set bundle deal on Bolo at the time, a brand new Arc, pair of Ones, and new gen Sub were cheaper (1459.66) than I could get the same setup with a Playbar. Price aside, this time the Sonos has sound that actually delivers -- the voices sound great during television and movies, music sounds great, and the fidelity is amazing.Pros- Better sound than other sound bars - I don’t think any sound better- Great sound to be had that is less expensive than a traditional home theater setup with a receiver and high end speakers- Small footprint- Easy setup- ARC/eARC means that your TV remote will seamlessly work to control the volume (as long as your TV supports it) without annoying setup or workarounds- Crystal-clear, well-balanced sound- Better center with clearer voices/dialogue compared to the Playbar and other sound bars- Slightly lower profile and wider than the Playbar, so less intrusive on the TV and wider sound field- Better design that has done away with fabric covers and just looks and feels elegant- Wireless surround that actually works when paired with Ones- Adequate bass even when not paired with a Sub- Simple enough to operate that my family will actually use it rather than set the sound back to the TV sound- Intelligent use of speakers when not in Atmos mode- Immersive music playback as a bonus when paired with Ones- HDMI to optical adapter included in case you need it- Bolo Alexa and Google Assistant built in- Sonos app is well designed and usefulCons- Price- Sound is not as good as can be had with an AV receiver with high quality speakers- Cannot use any of your existing speakers without a pricey Sonos Amp- Your TV should ideally support eARC (only a con if your current TV does not, which many do not!) for optimal Dolby Atmos support- If you need the optical setup, the configuration is Sonos HDMI port>short HDMI cable>short male optical adapter, and if that is not long enough to reach your sound input, you'll have to be creative- If your TV remote is not IR-based (e.g. you have a Samsung One Remote), you cannot use the Sonos app to set it up and you'll have to find work-arounds- Bolo Alexa and Google Assistant built in (if you are not into your home having mics)
1.0 out of 5 stars Human voice in shows does not speak!
The set up process is fairly straightforward. It plays good music via Apple Music. However, when playing tv shows or movies, the human voice portion does not play. Only the background music plays. Very frustrating. Researched online for a while. A lot of people have the same issues. The issue remains unresolved after contacting Bolo tech support. Do not recommend this product!
5.0 out of 5 stars Get it! You’ll love it!
I had a Sonos play 5 so I was already a huge fan of Sonos. This thing is amazing! As football season was approaching I told myself I got to get it! It makes a huge difference! Beautiful sound! I don’t have the sub or anything else hopefully soon will add those but just thing alone has beautiful crystal clear sound! Perfect for tv games movies everything!
5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing sound
I mounted to the wall below my tv. I bought from Bolo and it included a coupon for a free mount from sonos. I thought it would make me buy other products but it didn’t. I just added a mount to my cart and got it for free! Set up was straight forward. I have this in a large open kitchen/family room and the sound is awesome. Can hear the tv so much better and it’s great for playing music from as well. Happy I didn’t cheap out on my sound bar. I also like the slim design, it blends in really well.
Great sound and easy to install 👌
Easy to install and provides excellent sound. The app allows easy adjustments. I am very happy with the purchase. I have to say that shipping packaging is unique and second to none. No worries about about shipping damage
Otimo produto
O áudio deste produto é incrível, porém, lembre-se que é uma sound bar, e não um sistema de home-theater completo, porém, acredito que para 95% das pessoas o produto vai atender todas as expectativas, desde que o seu televisor tenha saída e-arc, e comparando este produto com os demais fabricantes, dentro da sua faixa de preço, esta certamente é a melhor opção custo benefício.
Reseña Honesta - La joya de la corona (al menos por ahora)
Contexto de la compra:No sé bien que estén haciendo las otras marcas de barras... pero Sonos la está rompiendo.Antes de incursionar con Sonos buscaba ciertas "prestaciones" en la comodidad que deseaba obtener de una barra: Sonido envolvente, que fuera de preferencia lo más inalámbrica posible, y que pudiera ser un setup de al menos 5.1, mi idea era para ver en la recama principal con una experiencia bastante cinematográfica y con calidad mediana-premium.En ese entonces me compré una JBL 4k 5.1 wireless y WOW que gran sorpresa me llevé! Excelente sonido, bocinas satélites con batería de larga duración (y que se pueden enchufar para cargarse pro separado, y sobre todo que se guardan en la barra! toda una chulada de barra!), pero qué creen? después me hice una Sonos Beam v1 y Todo cambio 🎶...Ahora tengo todo un setup de Sonos en mi sala de estar/cuarto de juegos:Sonos Beam v1, un par de Symfonisks Ikea-Sonos y un Sub Sonos G3 y ahora con esta compra estoy reemplazando mi Beam por una Arc.Pros:* La app de Sonos es Genial! te permite usar Alexa o Google Assistant, sin mencionar que ahora tiene su propio asistente Sonos Voice.* Tiene Ecualizador (graves y agudos), lo cual se agradece demasiado.* Incluye un poderoso feature de sonoridad que realza las frecuencias medias y graves (por si no tienes subwoofer)* SI eres poseedor de un iPhone, tienes la opción de usar True Sound para calibrar el sonido de tu bocina al tamaño, forma y acomodo de tus muebles para tener una mejor distribución del mismo.* Si tu TV no tiene Asistente Virtual tu beam puede prender, apagar, cambiar canal, controlar el volumen de tu TV.* Incluye bastantes servicios de streaming de audio de paga y gratuitos.* La posibilidad de crear tu propio ambiente auditivo en tu casa, agregando más bocinas y subwoofer y controlarlo desde ahí.* Puedes incluso usar Spotify desde cualquier otro device aun que no sea la misma cuenta.* AirPlay 2.* Se conecta a tu red por medio de Wifi, así que para usar distintos devices con ella es necesario que estén en la misma red.* Incluye un adaptador para cable óptico por si tu TV no tiene HDMI Arc.* Incluye opciones para realzar la voz y escucha de noche para bajar el volumen de ruidos fuertes y elevar los más sutiles durante la noche para no molestar a tus vecinos.* Se pueden tener 1 o más asistentes de voz a la vez.* Detecta automáticamente el formato de salida del audio, incluido Dolby atmos!Cons:* Es muy cara, recomiendo esperar una buena oferta para hacerte de ella.* No tiene bluetooth, por lo que no podrás conectar teléfonos.* Sólo tiene una entrada HDMI para conectarse a al TV.* Necesitas tener cuentas en casi todos los servicios para ser usados (no hay spotify gratis por así decirlo).* Si tu TV tiene Alexa a veces es molesto que ALEXA se confunda con las instrucciones entre la barra y la TV, en mi caso tengo todo bajo una misma habitación (zona) en Alexa y cuando le pido "apagar sala" si la tv está apagada la prende y viceversa.* Si eres usuario de Android no podrás usar True Sound.* No tiene control remoto, sólo podrás controlarla con el asistente de voz o la app de Sonos, pero puedes emparejar un control de TV para usarse con la barra.Supongo que podrás encontrar mejores opciones de sonido, todo dependerá de cuanto quieras invertir o que tanto necesites de un sistema de sonido.Yo le encuentro muchas ventajas ya que para el uso social las visitas pueden conectar sus celulares a spotify y ellos mismo poner su música si desean.Me gusta mucho para jugar, aun que he encontrado algunos detalles con la salida de algunas consolas, se tiene que configurar para obtener un sonido surround adecuado para los videojuegos.La calidad del audio es excelente, superior a cualquier otra marca de barras de sonido (JBL le está dando mucha batalla en este tema)
Super Sound
Die Sonos Arc hat einen super klang und ist leicht im Netzwerk zu instalieren. Die Verbindung zum Fernseher ist super easy. HDMI Kabel in den Fernseher und Arc einstecken und schon geht das Sounderlebnis los.
The current advertised price of £1000.49p is almost £250.00 over other suppliers.
Great soundbar delivers almost all Sonos promises. But, I'm very peeved in having paid almost £250.00 more than I needed to, awaiting an answer to that. I thought that we could trust Bolo's pricing.
