Our Verdict

A must-have for Sonos owners. The TV Audio Swap feature alone justifies the price if you have a Sonos soundbar. Sound quality is excellent — warm and spacious. As standalone headphones, there are better options for the price.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need Sonos speakers to enjoy the Ace?

No, they work as standalone Bluetooth headphones. But the TV Audio Swap feature requires a Sonos Arc or Beam soundbar.

How does TV Audio Swap work?

Open the Sonos app while your Arc is playing, tap one button, and the audio seamlessly transfers to your Ace with spatial audio. Great for late-night movie watching.

Are they comfortable for long flights?

Very comfortable thanks to memory foam cushions and balanced weight. The 30-hour battery easily covers the longest flights.
