Review on πŸ”Š Black Sonos Arc Smart Soundbar: Premium TV, Movies, Music, Gaming & More by Liyum ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

It took me a long time to choose a soundbar. I started to study the issue with LG, then JBL 9.1, and so slowly reached the Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 SSE, Bang & Olufsen Beosound Stage 2.0, but I pacified the frenzy in time and realized that I needed a golden mean with a simple expandability. There is nowhere to listen to Sonos Arc, so I relied on the reviewers of all Sonos from Smart Home Sounds and Peter Pee. And I didn't guess. In the Online Trade, they also gave out a good discount, the total cost was exactly 80. The box is gigantic, heavy, stylish. Plus that all the wires are included, minus that someone managed to steal a free subscription to :( By sound. He brought it, plugged it in, walked around with the phone and started listening. God, yes Atmos can really sound virtual! Wide stage, sharp mids, and even bass. But, I found the bass not enough. I scratched my turnips, ordered Sub Gen 3 for a very good price. And while the Sub was driving to me for a week, the Arc β€œmelted” and began to give out such a juicy bass that now I look at my Sub and don’t understand why I need it :)) With the Sub, of course, it’s better, the bass becomes deeper, intelligent, and the Arc itself changes setting and produces sharper averages. While I'm listening half with a subwoofer and half without, for example, Finch from Apple + looked great without a subwoofer, and what a cool 2022 Atmos there! By DTS. Yes, there are a lot of films in DTS, and I had to learn how to convert it to E-AC3 with handy tools in order to watch multi-channel. They promise a firmware, but while it is not there, we live as we live. What more i can say? The application is convenient, the TruePlay setting is three minutes of shame and you get great sound. The main thing is to use a fresher iPhone, and not the 11th. Now I'm waiting for the Ikea Symfonisk Lamp 2 to go on sale, I'll take them to the rear. And the sound and the lamp :) Well, who else has this? Perhaps later I will add a review, in general I am happy with the purchase, now I understand that Beam Gen 2 + Sub would be enough for me.

Pros
  • - Sound - Easy to set up - Wide stage - Really very wide stage - Atmos is really audible from above and somewhere behind
Cons
  • - Of course, the price is biting - Had to learn how to encode DTS in E-AC3 - Maybe I should have taken Beam Gen 2

Pros: Cool sound! I bought two SLs and now I'm happy. Everyone writes, you need a sub, but I already have norms! Different cons: When you turn on the TV, the speaker turns on with a delay of about 3 seconds, so I do not hear the first sounds.
