Mixed by Academy Award-Winning Engineers
With the increasing quality of streaming for movies, TV shows, and live performances, a premium smart soundbar has arrived to bring cinema-grade sound to your living room: the "Sonos Arc."
The "Sonos Arc" supports high-quality Dolby Atmos®. Its eleven high-performance drivers include two angled upwards to create 3D sound, delivering clear, deep, and nuanced audio.
Academy Award-winning mixing engineers were involved in its design, adjusting the sound profile to match your home theater setup and the content being played, whether stereo or Dolby Atmos.
It also features Speech Enhancement for clearer dialogue and Night Sound to reduce loud explosions, all adjustable via the app. Sonos' proprietary tuning technology, "Trueplay," captures immersive sound from both vertical and horizontal directions, optimizing audio for your room.
Available in matte black and matte white, it can be placed in front of a stand-mounted TV or mounted on a wall with the optional wall mount. Control is possible via the app, remote, or voice commands with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant (support planned for Japan in 2020).
Beyond the "Sonos Arc" on its own, you can add a "Sonos Sub" and two "Sonos One SLs" as surround speakers for an even more immersive experience. As we cherish our time at home, the value of "Sonos Arc" continues to grow.
