★ Full Sonos Arc Surround Sound System Review: • Full Sonos Arc Surroun...
The Sonos One and One SL are Sonos' budget smart speakers. The only difference between these two speakers is that the One has microphones built-in and the One SL does not.
They both produce high-quality audio with clear highs, a balanced mid-range, and an impressive amount of bass for their size. They are perfect when used as standalone units, in a stereo pair, or as surround speakers with a soundbar.

Check out my Full Sonos Arc Surround Sound System Review! czcams.com/video/hSb_C48ZuR0/video.html
like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, czcams.com/users/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....
Very clean review as I am a 86 year old man with terminal cancer my Sonos is giving me lots of joy for the time I have left thank you for your review regards john

I hope you are surrounded by people you love. I wish you love and happiness for the rest of your Days.
Hahahahahaha
Yo can I get your speakers after you fucking expire?
@@johnward454 still alive good sir?
Great review Jonah! 👍🏻Looking forward to your in depth review on your surround sound experience.
Gen2 Sonos One was released in 2019. Nice review :)
Thanks you so much for going into the "cons" everyone else was just selling for affiliate links instead of telling the full story user experience. Subscribed!
Just purchased 2 for surround. Can't wait for the depth with my Arc and sub!!😁😁
Great video yet again, I myself made the same mistake in buying two SL's for surrounds to go with my Playbar & Sub. Now that I've upgraded the Playbar with the ARC, I have three Alexa/Google enabled Sonos speakers in the same room. None of which I use as you cant change the Wake work from Alexa unless your using an actual Amazon Echo device & my TV already has google built in. Anyway looking forward to you next review now you have the full Sonos Atmos setup. keep up the good work.
Totally agreed with you on the 2 negative points. They would have been awesome as computer speakers!
Thanks Jonah. Very helpful. I’m shifting from my analogue system and have one Sonos One as a starter.....was considering whether stereo pairing would be a goer. I appreciate your views and will now probably get a one SL.
great vid! just bought 2 sl's yesterday and i completely agree with you. Just waiting for Sonos to ship the Arc and the sub again lol
Me too 😅👍! The ARC is the Gamechanger for me and the one‘s are great
Excellent review. Thanks.
I was going to buy this for my desk top im happy I view this video
Really very helpful. Many thanks.
Really like your videos man! Keep posting videos and in no time you will reach 100k subs! Thinking of buying sonos one:s as surround speakers
Thanks for the support! It’s definitely worth it!
If you have an ARC/Sub set up do it, you'll have no regrets. The sound improvement is absolutely amazing..
Hi Jonah, great job on your videos 👍🏼 just seeing what your thoughts are on Sonos surround sound compared to a proper home theatre setup with quality high sensitivity loudspeakers and receiver/amp?
Also, have you listened to a ‘traditional’ Dolby Atmos setup as a comparison to the Arc?
Thanks from Australia, keep up the great work
I have sonos 1 @ 5 1st gen...i still love it...sound quality is superb the only cons is connectivity is sometimes very complicated...overall the best.
I just got mine. They sound decent with the sub, but I can hear the lack of midrange. They don’t blow me away for stereo music to be honest, but I’m really picky. I got this system for convenience and size factor though. I’m waiting for my Arc to arrive as it’s on backorder. I hope it will blow me away when watching movies.
Great review with loads of details!! One question though after listening to the last part of the video, is it that if someone would Airplay the CZcams/Netflix videos from Macbook to just '1' of Sonos One unit, the audio and the video would go out of sync? Or it's more of an issue while Airplaying with '2' Sonos One units (stereo) instead?
Good work.
Hi Jonah,
Thx for the review.
What option would you recommend.
1. Arc on it’s own £799
2. Beam with 2xSL for the £699
For a normal living room.
(Preferring sound quality over “surround sound”)
Thank you
I returned mine for a Bose 500 and am not regretting it at all. Also, Sonos only connects VIA Wifi 2.4 and not 5.
Hi I run my desktop thru hdmi to tv then optical to playbase works great
The Sonos one 2nd gen 2 is phenomenal ❤
Thanks for the review, I have a maybe stupid question. I am looking to get a pair of One SL's , I understand that I can play Pandora, but can I play from my i tunes library or youtube if my i-pad is on wifi? And is it a problem to leave them plugged in to power all the time? Thanks, Kevin
Wonder if I can use just 2 of these (ceiling mounted) pair them with the sub and get Dolby atmosphere sound without having a sound bar.
Hello jonah just want to ask one thing pls.is it normal for the sonos arc and sonos one sl to be warm at the back part even if your not using it?thanks in advance keep safe
Can you use 2 sonos sl speakers to an existing Bluetooth Sony sound bar and woofer? Or do you need all sonos components to work?
my sonos beam is great for my PC .. but i would love to find out how to get Dolby out of my PC instead of just Stereo PCM. I would imagine when I do figure that out, I could enjoy movies better on my PC not just my TV
Just wanting speakers for surround sound to existing Sony Bluetooth sound bar and woofer. Will sonos speakers work? I do have iOS phone btw
Hi Jonah, wat is your opinion with having a Sonos Soundbar with “2” One SLs without the woofer ? (in a 182 sq foot room)
As a non-Apple owner, I'd be okay with a tuning mic. Otherwise, this is a bada$$ system and aside from the Apple tuning and Bluetooth issue, am still stoked with my purchase.
I'm thinking on getting a beam and a SL and plan to connect to my TV. But will it also work well with my Samsung galaxy S20? I see a lot of people talk about airplay but hardly anyone says how it will work with Android devices.
Hey man, I just upgraded my Sonos system, I have the arc with sub which surround speakers would be great to make a really good system between Sonos one sl and Sonos one thanks
Spotify connect works perfect on sonos! I use it all the time! I don’t like using airplay on any sonos product. There’s a delay always.
appreciate the video. any idea how an arc + 2 x ones work, without a sub?
Looking to jump into the sonos ecosystem, but cant afford a sub right now but can get an arc and two ones
The Arc and 2 One SLs is a great combination! Low-end on the Arc is pretty good, no ground shaking bass, but it’s good.
Definitely invest in the Sub later on though. It’s magical haha.
@@JonahMatthes what about the symfonisk??
I got this 2 bad boys (Sonos one SL). One of the best speakers out there! Better than Bose in my opinion
Do these have good enough bass?
Amazon have removed the purchase button from the sonos one …I wonder are they getting ready for new version ?
I’m contemplating whether to pass on sonos SL and save money for new 55”OLED TV end of year over our current LED 44” ….really not sure what to do ha and the 40 series RTX gpu I’ll be out aswell 😫
Do the sonos SL really add that much to viewing experience
Why all the Sonos Arc sound bar sold out everywhere and on back order is this due to COVID?
Probably due to the worldwide pandemic and the fact that people are buying it like CRAZY.
The problem with the SL ONE is that they are Wi-Fi speakers.
They are not Bluetooth speakers.
Every time I pause a YT video during my workout, they won’t play without me reconnecting the speakers.
Maybe someone here can help. Am I understanding this correctly...I cannot have a Beam and 4 SLs in a surround sound group? I wanna get the beam and two SL package and then also buy two more SLs and have a 3 speaker surround set up and one SL in my den and one SL in my kitchen. But I want them all to be connected to play music so my music is coming they 5 speakers but then I want a 3 speaker setup for tv/movies, video games, and live sports with the beam and two SLs. I’d also like all of these to be connected to my google home network and and my airplay2 setup. Is my desired Sonos setup the correct setup for my hopes and needs?
Can I connect the One SL to my Alexa app to control it through the echo dot. ¿
Regarding airplay, so, you cannot play music via youtube app??
How can i connect my sonos one sl speaker with my phone's bluetooth?
Why is the One Sl more expensive if it’s missing the voice assistance feature built in?
Are they any good combined with the playbar as a surround system?
Absolutely!
Can I just connect it to my Samsung j3 prime as a simple BLUETOOTH speaker?
HI can i use 2 subs Gen3 with my sonos system ???
Do you put these in the front or back of a room if you have the sonos arc and Sonos sub up front??
in the back they are rear speakers when in surround mode
Does a single Sonos One and Sonos One SL work as Left and Right rear for Arc-Sub surround sound setup?
Yes. You shouldn’t have issues doings that
Does this work for Apple TV?
You need a ring light Jonah ;) Also, why haven't you answered the questions here so that the viewers and future viewers have more info?? Often times I sub to a YT channel b/c I see a question answered that I myself had. It's not like this would be an overwhelming thing at this point.
Thanks for commenting on a few of my videos! I try to answer common questions I see frequently, and I respond to a lot of comments the day a video is posted. At this point I get anywhere from 25-50 comments a day. It’s very overwhelming when a lot of comments are very specific questions that take a fair amount of time to answer. I’d prefer to spend more time making videos that can reach more people. It’s not that I don’t like answering people’s questions, it’s just really time consuming. So I try to answer questions on the more recent videos because those are typically more relevant and on my mind. Hope that makes sense
@@JonahMatthes I do understand and thank you for responding. And of course I could never know the volume of questions that you have to field privately so kudos for you finding the time time to answer what you can. BUT
Also, lossless Atmos not possible without eArc. But compressed lossy should work for anyone reading this with HDMI Arc.
Hi Jonah, i watch your interview on Income School channel about your great experience with blogging business, so my question why you don't talk about it on your channel? or do you have any website talking about? I'm interesting, and i need to know if you have any course or tutoriel about particularly "FREE TRAFIC" Thank you so much
That's a great question! The reason I almost never push my channel is because I don't have any products for sale on my website and I'd prefer that people on CZcams stay and watch more of my CZcams videos. This should help the channel grow quicker because CZcams sees that people aren't bouncing from CZcams to a different website. My website brings in a ton of traffic now, and doesn't really need any help from my CZcams channel.
Yes but i want to know how do you write blog content from scratch? And make money? With your content ?
@@mbeleg Follow exactly what Income School recommends. If you haven't already, you should buy into Project 24, they lay everything out in an easy to learn format.
@@JonahMatthes Yes i get the point but you pernaly you don't have any course, process, tips to give away? Please Jonah 4 years now i try to make money online, i try much ways like ecommerce, affiliate, i don't have any results, i lose my job with this crazy pandemic and i want to change my live bro, could HELP PLEASE? thanks
Hello, are you able to connect this to your television?
Unfortunately no. You could use them as surround speakers with a Sonos Soundbar, but not only with the TV.
@@JonahMatthes
Thank you 🙏🏼
No bluetooth? What year is this, Sony?
So I won’t be able to use it for my dell laptop when I’m watching movies???
It's a shame that TruePlay is available only for iOS and not for Android
Agreed, but you never know, they may add the feature to some Android phones. Luckily you don’t need it continuously, just once for the initial setup.
@@JonahMatthes So I can use a friend's iPhone and set it up and that's it? I can them use it with my S10+ and not touch the configurations?
From what I understand, there shouldn’t be any issues with that!
It’s because the microphones on the IOS devices are all standard. Not so on Android devices.
@@homerjsimpson71 Makes sense
I love mine individually, but when I try to use it in a surround setup it's horrific.
Why?
CZcams music works right?
Yep!
bluetooth can't provide a lossless connection
Sony has a new proprietary version called LDAC, which is supposed to be good for high res audio. Not sure if they license it out to other companies, and from what I can tell with the lack of DTS support, Sonos tries to avoid spending money on licensing formats.
No connectivity (jacks, Bluetooth nor digital input), that's why I did NOT choose the Sonos 1but went for a competitor that offers all connectivity.
Maybe sound is not on par with Sonos sound (though it is hifi and hires 24) but it is better an no sound !!!
I pc game with my arc and two one sl speakers..
Can these be paired to a TV via bluetooth?
No, there is no Bluetooth on thoses speakers ! Only Wifi
The moment you said they were not bluetooth I was why would you bother?
I have one of these!😃 I hate it 😞
C O N S T A N T connection issues. Also, the mic sucks. You have to be very close to it, or screaming from across the room. It's nice looking, expensive garbage.
I got one as a gift for being with my company for X number of years. Can’t use it with Bluetooth. Must use the Sonos app. Must set up another miscellaneous account. Can’t use it with my TV. Highly disappointed.
NO BLUETOOTH WTF
Sonos setup blows
One would need a full paper to describe the crap that SONOS does. Wanna listen to music? Good luck! You will spend hours upon hours trying to setup the software which is an almost impossible task. When you reset the whole thing to give it another go, then you get confronted with a major bug built into the system. If you ever change the email you provide SONOS to make the speaker work, you will be left with an inoperable system. You will spend hours trying to reset your password. Every time they will tell you it has been done but it wil not. And if you ever dare to request assistance from SONOS be ready to be insulted by the staff. They please themselves to tell you where you messed up but give you no answers to solve the problems. This of course, you can verify by yourself by reading a few SONOS support threads. I really wonder how in the hell this company exists? And why would anyone be giving great reviews about it.
