The Sonos Arc is the home audio giant’s biggest and best soundbar, but it’s also the company’s most expensive. If you’re a Sonos devotee or considering a conversion, you may be wondering if the Arc does enough to justify its steep price tag, especially when the company’s own Beam bar comes in at half the price. The short answer is that the Arc is the Sonos soundbar for audiophiles and those trying to fill especially large rooms. But if that’s you, then the Arc really is excellent, whether on its own or paired with other Sonos speakers as surrounds or subs.
