Sonos is getting an upgrade — which means now’s the time to improve your home audio setup. And you can do so in one of two ways.
If you want the latest and greatest gear, Sonos just launched preorders for three new or updated products. First there’s Arc, a new soundbar that takes the place of the old Playbar (but not Beam). Featuring support for Dolby Atmos and an impressive amount of bass — along with a cool-looking curved design meantto reflect light in a more pleasing manner. It’s also a much longer soundbar than the Beam, to coincide with the consumer move to larger screens.
Sonos also just launched Sonos Sub (Gen 3) and Sonos Five, updates to their wireless subwoofers and smart speakers — they look the same, but the internals are all new. As usual, all this gear plays nicely together and takes just minutes to set up.
The Sonos Arc ($799), Sonos Sub ($699) and Sonos Five ($499) are available for pre-order now and will ship on June 10.
While I’m a proud owner of the smaller Beam, the larger Playbar is still more than enough of a soundbar for most homes. Although it’s not quite as sleek as the new Arc, it’s certainly cheaper, especially if you grab a manufacturer refurbished one via World Wide Stereo’s eBay site, which currently has the Playbar at $250 off and just $449 shipped.
