Sonos Arc Ultra: Immersive sound with crystal clear detail
Whether you're on your twelfth rewatch of a classic Christmas film or discovering a new one, your audio should be crisp and clear enough to immerse you in the magic. The deep, balanced audio from Arc Ultra feels like a warm hug, surrounding you from every direction.
Arc Ultra is engineered for unparalleled sound, pairing 9.1.4 spatial audio powered by Dolby Atmos with an all-new acoustic architecture featuring 14 Sonos-engineered drivers and advanced Sound Motion™ technology. From crisp dialogue and thunderous sleigh rides to delicate snowfall, Arc Ultra brings cinematic clarity to any home audio setup.
Setting up Arc Ultra is as easy as unwrapping a gift. Just plug in the power cable, connect your TV using the included HDMI cable, and open the Sonos app to complete setup. Once you’re connected, you have the ability to control your TV with its original remote, the Sonos app, touch controls, Sonos Voice Control, or compatible smart home hubs.
Designed with a sleek, modern, minimalist aesthetic, Arc Ultra is available in matte black and white, making it an addition to your holiday (or year-round) home decor that looks just as good as it sounds. Arc Ultra is available for $1099, but you can take advantage of holiday sales and scoop it up for just $879. At that price, grab one for a friend, or use the savings to add on to your own home audio setup with additional Sonos accessories.
Sonos Sub 4: Deep bass that rumbles like reindeer hooves
Immersive audio is one thing, but if your favorite holiday movie is an action one, odds are you’re interested in some pulse-pounding bass as part of your audio setup. Sonos has that covered, too, with its latest subwoofer, Sub 4.
Sub 4 features dual Sonos-engineered drivers that generate deep, dynamic low frequencies. A ported enclosure enhances the bass response so you feel every beat, roar, and rumble in your chest with no buzz or rattle, thanks to the acoustic architecture that creates a force-canceling effect, virtually eliminating distortion. Sub 4 pairs beautifully with Arc Ultra to boost the viewing experience of movies, shows, and games with detailed and spacious sound.
Like other Sonos audio equipment, Sub 4 couldn’t be easier to get up and running. Simply plug in the power cable and open the Sonos app. Sub 4 reliably connects over Wi-Fi for an easy, nearly wireless install. While it features an iconic design that pairs well with other Sonos devices, you can opt to lay it on its side and tuck it under the sofa or other furniture if you don’t want it to be visible. Sub 4 costs $899, but you can enjoy holiday sale prices as low as $719.
Era 300: Next-level 360-degree audio that wraps around you like a blanket
The cocoa is hot, the blankets are cozy, and the music is loud. There is no reason to act like we don’t all sit on the floor, surrounded by wrapping paper and tape, belting out holiday songs. If you’re going to do that, though, shouldn’t your audio be of the highest quality from every direction? Sonos Era 300 speakers offer that next-level audio.
Six optimally positioned drivers provide a spatial, Dolby Atmos–supported audio experience from all sides. This isn’t just your favorite holiday playlist – it’s your holiday playlist projected from wall to wall, floor to ceiling, via the Era 300's breakthrough acoustic design. Your entire room becomes a soundstage that supports all of your favorite devices and services. You can even enjoy specially-curated music, original content, and live stations with Sonos Radio.
Era 300 can be connected over Wi-Fi or paired with a Bluetooth® device with the press of a button. Enhance your music experience with the Sonos app's built-in TruePlay™ technology, which analyzes the acoustics of your space to better optimize the Era 300’s EQ. Sonos Voice Control provides additional accessibility, along with intuitive touch controls on top of the speaker.
Era 300 is normally priced at $479, but holiday sales bring the price to $379, allowing you to wrap yourself and a friend in the wonderful sounds of the Sonos Era 300 this holiday season.
