Sonos has established a reputation for its advanced multi-room systems and high-fidelity components designed for smart homes. The newly launched Arc Ultra represents the latest advancement in home entertainment technology.
Premiere for Sound Motion Technology
Arc Ultra represents a fresh take on our top-selling soundbar, states Patrick Spence, CEO of Sonos. The company claims that the Sonos Arc Ultra is the first to incorporate a transducer technology known as Sound Motion. This innovative technology aims to enhance bass performance while minimizing the transducer’s size.
There are 14 drivers inside the Sonos Arc Ultra soundbar.
The system features 14 drivers engineered by Sonos, which include a Sound Motion woofer and a set of tweeters equipped with waveguides on both ends. This arrangement delivers a 9.1.4 surround sound experience in the living space. Additionally, Sonos has integrated its proprietary Trueplay technology, now available for both iOS and Android devices, allowing users to customize the audio to suit their specific room acoustics.
