Our Verdict

Sonos Arc with Sub + One SL Speakers

Sonos Ultimate Immersive Set with Arc

The Sonos Ultimate Immersive Set with Arc is better than the Sonos Arc with Sub + One SL Speakers. Both setups take the Sonos Arc paired with a Sonos Sub but use different satellite speakers. The Ultimate Immersive Set uses the Sonos Era 300 speakers, with up-firing drivers built in for a more immersive sound, especially with surround sound and height content. You get a more clear and real feel with sound effects as a result.
