Sonos has today unveiled two new products in its home theatre line including the Sonos Arc Ultra and Sonos Sub 4.
The Sonos Arc Ultra has some big improvements including a new slimmer design to allow for an even smaller gap between your TV unit and TV.
It has an improved sound stage going from 5.1.2 to 9.1.4 with new transducers dedicated to high, mid and low frequencies. It also uses the new Sound Motion technology that Sonos acquired a few years ago, and Trueplay is now available on Android too. s far as power consumption goes it uses 20% less power when idle.
There’s now Bluetooth support for those that want to connect in that way, and a new Speech Enhancement feature that can go between three levels of speech enhancement depending on how important that is to you.
The Sonos Arc Ultra will release in Australia on October 29th with pre-orders live now. It costs $1,799 AUD ($300 more than the Arc) and comes in both Black and White.
The new Sonos Sub 4 doesn’t look a whole lot different from the Sub 3, but it now has a new matte design, which I much prefer.
As far as improvements go, it has increased processing power and memory as well as better Wi-Fi radios which should allow for increased connectivity. As far as power consumption goes it uses 50% less power when idle.
The Sonos Sub 4 will release in Australia on October 29th with pre-orders live now. It costs $1,299 AUD (same as Sub 3) and comes in a new matte Black and matte White.
We’ll have reviews for the Sonos Arc Ultra and Sonos Sub 4 in the next month or so. Keen to swap out the current Arc that I’ve been using and loved for the last few years and see how it compares.
