Bring all your entertainment to life with the extraordinarily realistic sound of this Sonos Arc - the premium smart soundbar for TV, movies, gaming, and more.
Immerse yourself in the music
Stream music, radio, podcasts, and more from your favorite services with the Sonos app or Apple AirPlay 2 when the TV is off.
Voice control
The Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa are built right in, so you can play music, check news, set alarms, get your questions answered, and more, completely hands free.
Mute for privacy
Turn the microphone off with a tap. The LED light is hardwired and will also turn off so you know your voice assistant isn't listening.
Expand your sound system
When you're ready, wirelessly connect more Sonos speakers and enjoy listening in more rooms.
Build out your home theater
Wirelessly connect Sonos Sub and a pair of One SL rears (sold separately) for an even more immersive listening experience.
Customized sound
Trueplay™ puts the speaker-tuning capability of the pros in the palm of your hands, adapting and optimizing the sound of the speaker to the unique acoustics of the room.
Magnetic sensor
Detects when Arc is mounted and smartly adjusts the EQ to temper bass resonance.
Ambient light sensor
Arc detects how bright the room is and automatically adjusts the brightness of the LEDs to be visible but not distracting.
Hear every word
Arc was specially tuned with the help of Oscar-winning sound engineers to emphasize the human voice so you can always follow the story. Turn on Speech Enhancement in the app to clarify dialogue when characters talk quietly or action intensifies.
Wi-Fi
Stream via your Wi-Fi network, and wirelessly connect more Sonos speakers to expand your sound system.
Simplified setup
Bring your phone up to Arc to automatically pair and securely transfer Wi-Fi credentials using near-field communication (NFC).
Eleven high-performance drivers
Arc's advanced processing creates five phased-array channels that masterfully deliver sound to your ears from all directions at the exact right moment.
HDMI eARC
Increased bandwidth supports high-quality audio and has lip-sync compensation built in.
Blends in beautifully
With its elongated shape, soft profile, and seamless facade, Arc discreetly mounts to the wall or sits beneath the TV without pulling focus.
Capacitive touch controls
Play, pause, skip tracks, adjust the volume, and group rooms just by tapping or swiping the top of the soundbar.
3D sound with Dolby Atmos
Experience shows, movies, and games with the precise and immersive sound of Dolby Atmos. Arc's upward-firing drivers create a multi-dimensional soundstage that then moves around you, rendering every whisper and explosion with dramatic clarity, detail, and depth.

- A: AnswerHi, and thank you for your question. No, our products don't turn off. They go into a low power state if not in use, but they always stay on. This is because of the nature of the use of our products. If they turned off, you would have to power it on and wait for it to reconnect everytime you wanted to listen to music or watch a movie. Which means you would either have to get up, or we would have to include a remote (which nobody likes lol) If you'd like to turn that light off, you can in the room settings. Go to settings -> system -> select the room name -> scroll down to find "status lights" --- you'll see a toggle switch to turn it off and on! Hope this helps! :)

- A: AnswerThe Sonos Arc WILL deliver Dolby Atmos sound through an older Arc HDMI connection. It's done via lossy Dolby Digital Plus,. but the sound is indeed Atmos and it sounds great. Is an eArc connection better, I'd say yes. But you don't need to get a new TV with eArc just yet as long as you have an Arc HDMI port.
Answered by Rich
- A: AnswerYes you can using the Sonos App. It uses WiFi instead of Bluetooth, which is better as you won’t hear those anyone disruptions when you get a text or message. You can also link your Music services and stream directly from them, you’ll love that feature with Spotify.
Answered by Montro79
- A: AnswerThe Arc's upfiring speakers are at a (approx.) 70 degree angle up from the forward facing front speakers. You will likely need to give enough clearance between the TV (recommended 4 inches) or have the Arc pushed far up enough that the TV or shelf does not obstruct the sound from those speakers

Q: QuestionCan I set up four rear surrounds with this soundbar or will it only support two?(4 answers)
A: AnswerIn the current state, Sonos can only have 2 rear surrounds setupAnswered by TheoS
- A: AnswerThe Sonos Arc will work with any television that can output sound through either digital optical (with the included adapter) or HDMI ARC. You would not receive Atmos through the digital optical port as that port can not send Atmos codecs. You would still receive Dolby Digital surround sound and the Arc would use the entire array of speakers to make that sound incredible!
Answered by Sonos Customer Care
- A: AnswerHi, and thanks for your question. It is possible that this could severely decrease your sound quality, as the front speakers are pointed straight forward, and the atmos speakers are pointed up. However, every room environment is different so it's difficult to say how much it will impact your experience.

Q: QuestionWill the Arc work with the Sonos Play 1 (gen 1) for 5.1 surround sound?(2 answers)
A: AnswerHi, thank you for your question! You can use two Sonos Play:1 (Gen 1) speakers as rears configured with the Sonos Arc.Answered by Sonos Customer Care

Sonos Arc, a phenomenal soundbar
I recently purchased the Sonos Arc to replace a JBL bar 5.1 soundbar that I was having nothing but problems with. First of all, even without satellite speakers the Arc's sound quality is amazing. I always purchase high end, flagship model tv's but have a habit for cheaping out on the audio. I have a good surround sound system in my living room, but this sound bar was meant for my master bedroom, which is where I end up watching the majority of TV and movies. Set up was a breeze, I got two stands for my satellite speakers and with a quick download of the app and few quick instructions followed, the soundbar was configured to the subwoofer and satellite speakers. The sound quality out of the Arc is amazing. This system brought depth to my TV and movies that the JBL bar 5.1 just couldn't compete with. I would hope so, considering the entire 2.1 setup costs around $2k. While the bar 5.1 was about $700. This unit does great job of pickup up and playing miss, highs and lows. The mode that focuses on spoken dialogue is amazing as well, many times while watching action movies, the dialogue gets drowned out by bangs and explosions. All I can say is, if you're on the fence about grabbing one of these set ups, don't hesitate. It was worth every dollar, I wish I would have made the purchase sooner.

Sonos Arc Soundbar
Well here is the truth about this wonderful soundbar. I have a 7.2 dolby atmos full klipsh home stereo with 2 paradigm 15 inch subs and let me tell you. I havent used my home stereo but maybe 4 times since my purchase of this Sonos Arc. I love my Sonos Arc as it is extremely impressive, which is why I havent used my home stereo. The full dolby atmos with the surround on this Arc is insane. Ive gotten a hand full of home theater enthusiasts to buy this Arc and more just from demoing a movie. Dont get me wrong i still enjoy and earthquake or 2, too some good music with the home stereo. Latley I've been so focus into what a full arc sytem could sound like. Would highly recommend buying a Sonos Arc.

Sounds great and passes the wife’s aesthetic test.
This is a pricey soundbar, but you can’t beat the sound quality. Especially when paired with the other Sonos speakers. It sounds incredible, looks great, and the setup is INCREDIBLY easy. Set it up with the frame tv and it works great. I love the sound and my wife loves the look. It’s a win-win.
