The editors didn't like
As wide as many 60inch TVs
The Arc's 45inch width may prove too wide for some setups and stands
No HDMI passthrough makes Atmos a trick for many setups
The $799 price tag makes it a very considered purchase
Expensive
Only works with pricey Sonos subwoofer
Relies too heavily on the capabilities of the TV it will be connected to
Only one HDMI port
No support for any DTS codecs
Very large
Pricey
Plastic body really attracts dust
Atmos can be difficult to set up
Best support is dependant on TV specs
May be too large for smaller TVs
Larger open rooms may not result in the best surround experience
Compression artifacts at max volume
No full EQ
The Dolby Atmos ecosystem is frustratingly patchy
Only compatible with other speakers running Sonos S2
Can't add dedicated overhead speakers for Atmos
Single HMDI eARC port limits Atmos
More expensive than other single-bar competitors
No Bluetooth streaming
No HDMI input (only eARC)
Unconvincing Atmos
Lacks mid-range control
Choice of materials
A single HDMI input
Expansion gets pricey quickly
Sound favors treble at high volumes
Summary
Sonos has finally given us an upgrade to the Playbar
And it's impressive. The Arc has an improved design
Jakość dźwięku, Odczuwalny dźwięk przestrzenny, Wygodna aplikacja, Asystent Google, Mocny bas bez subwoofera
Wysoka cena, Możliwość rozszerzenia zestawu jedynie o urządzenia Sonos
Nie mam wąiwości, że Sonos Arc to najlepszy pod względem jakości dźwięki soundbar, z jakim miałem styczność. Sam fakt, że nawet bez podłączania subwoofera jest w stanie emitować niskie tony z powodzeniem oddając jakość lepiej niż niejeden zestaw wyposażon...

skvělý zvuk pro filmy i hudbu, masivní a plné basy, pěkný design a výborné zpracování, výborné středy a srozumitelné dialogy, multiroom a streamování hudby, hlasoví asistenti, dobrá citlivost mikrofonů, aplikace Sonos a spousta chytrých funkcí, noční reži
chybějící podpora DTS a vícekanálového PCM, pro plné využití nutnost TV s eARC, nepodporuje Bluetooth, vysoká cena, rozšíření na soustavu 5.1 se prodraží, držák na stěnu není součástí balení, v balení chybí český návod, pro někoho větší rozměry
Sonos Arc je bezesporu skvělým prémiovým soundbarem, který dokáže uspokojit jak milovníky filmů, tak i hudby. Pokud už máte se značkou zkušenosti a nějaký Sonos doma máte, tak Arc do této rodiny reproduktorů skvěle zapadne. Nebál bych se jej ale doporučit...
