The , for example, offers a unique design, cool features, and comes at the exact same price as the Sonos Arc Ultra."
"The Sonos Arc Ultra is a sleek and stylish soundbar, but if you want a design that's cool, then the Marshall Heston 120 is the way to go. A great design is actually kind of important in a soundbar - it's something that's going to live out in the open, in your living room, for all to see. Sure, I care more about audio quality than design, but I want something that's going to make a statement without being over the top."
The Sonos Arc Ultra led the $1,000 soundbar category after its late 2024 release, but new rivals have emerged offering similar value. The Marshall Heston 120 matches the Arc Ultra's price while presenting a distinctive Marshall aesthetic with faux leather sides, textile mesh covers, a visible logo, and top-mounted knobs. Sonos emphasizes sleek, modern design and tight digital-ecosystem integration, while Marshall focuses on wired, analog options for music enthusiasts. Both soundbars produce exceptional audio performance. The Heston 120 suits buyers seeking a statement-making design that complements living-room furniture.
