![]() Like the Arc, the Soundbar 700 blends into the scene very well, something they were obviously thinking about ahead of time when they chose to offer it in white and black. Past the undeniably great audio experience (including four midrange cones and one tweeter), there’s a lot to write home about with this unit, like the included universal remote and the stylish, slim design. It’s worth noting that there is an advanced 8-mic array in the unit too, making those assistants a great experience. Those assistant features, and especially the AirPlay, go a long way toward making you not miss the Sonos experience discussed in our last option.

Above this price, there’s no question that you’ll be getting a quality product from any of these manufacturers, but the Sonos brings something special to the table. And, of course, it has the eARC standard built-in. With 11 built-in amplifiers powering 11 different drivers, this soundbar fills the room like few others can at this price point, although, if this doesn’t cut it, we have another list of great soundbars. ![]() The Sonos Arc soundbar (on Amazon) is an incredible product, packing in a tremendous amount of hardware.
