Sonos Arc vs SONY HT-ZF9
Verdict
Overall, the Sonos Arc receives mixed reviews. Many users praise its impressive Dolby Atmos performance and room correction feature, as well as its compatibility with Alexa and Airplay. However, some users have had difficulty setting it up and have experienced issues with sound quality, particularly with distorted bass and muffled sound. Some users also note that it may not be a significant improvement over other Sonos products or older sound systems. Additionally, there have been some complaints about connectivity and compatibility with TVs. Despite these mixed reviews, the Sonos Arc remains a popular choice for those looking for a smart soundbar with Dolby Atmos capabilities.
Verdict
The Sony HT-ZF9 is a great soundbar for those looking for a small system with big, clear and dimensional sound. It offers enhanced listening experience over common stereo sound bars and a scale and width that works well with movies and music. The Virtual Atmos feature is also an added bonus. However, it is relatively pricey at eight hundred nine hundred dollars, so it may not be the best substitute for a full board Dolby Atmos system. Additionally, some users have reported bugs with the product.
