Sonos Arc
Bose Smart Soundbar
The Sonos Arc is a larger and more premium all-in-one soundbar that is a bit better than the Bose Smart Soundbar for most people, unless you're short of space, though they share some of the same qualities, like a lack of full bass extension. The Sonos' stereo soundstage is bigger and sounds similarly balanced as the Bose, but you get room calibration and a 5.0.2 configuration as opposed to a 3.0.2. On the other hand, the Bose is smaller and keeps up well for Dolby Atmos and surround performance and falls only a bit shy on most other metrics, though it lacks DTS support.
