SONOS ARC

Not only is the Arc one of the very best Dolby Atmos soundbars around (thanks to its ability to spread movie sound far and wide). it's also a very accomplished speaker when it comes to music too. So Sonos is basically offering you the best of all possible worlds here: a soundbar that makes every movie a thrillingly immersive experience, a speaker that is a faithful, rhythmically adept and lavishly detailed listen when it comes to music, and a device that's part of the most logical, most stable multi-room ecosystem around. It could only be better if it made movie recommendations too.

BOSE SMART SOUNDBAR ULTRA

Soundbars that are just as adept with music as with movies are pretty thin on the ground - so Bose is to be applauded for the Smart Soundbar Ultra. It's a barnstorming listen for films, able to chuck effects far and wide, and it's a poised and realistic speaker where music is concerned. It's better-looking than your average soundbar, too.

SONOS ERA 300

It looks a bit weird, true, but the shape of the Era 300 is dictated by its function. This speaker has drivers firing in all directions in order to make your favourite spatial audio content sound as deep, wide and tall as possible. If you want to get right inside your tunes, here's the speaker to put you there.
