The verdict

The Sonos Arc Ultra + Sub 4 sounds excellent, with deep bass and a sleek design that looks right at home in most living rooms. It's a great pick if you want immersive audio without the hassle of a full-blown home theater setup. That said, it's pricey, takes up a good amount of space, and still doesn't quite deliver the feel of a true surround sound system. If you're after something stylish and easy to use, that still sounds good; this setup gets you most of the way there.
