Finally, after much anticipation, the Sonos Ace wireless headphones have made their grand entrance. In an exciting announcement on Tuesday, the company revealed that these long-awaited headphones will hit the shelves on June 5th. What’s more, eager fans can secure their pair by preordering now for $449.
While we’re still putting the Sonos Ace through its paces in our testing phase, our initial experience during a recent demo session left us thoroughly impressed. These luxurious noise-canceling headphones boast exceptional comfort, thanks to plush magnetic ear pads crafted from vegan leather and a memory foam headband. An added bonus: if you’re the proud owner of a Sonos soundbar, you can seamlessly switch audio from your TV to the headphones with just a push of a button, delivering an immersive audio experience exclusive to you.
Of course, the true test lies in how the Sonos Ace fares against competitors like Bose, Sony, and Apple in terms of sound quality, active noise cancellation (ANC), and transparency modes over extended use. Stay tuned for our comprehensive review coming soon. In the meantime, here’s how you can be among the first to claim your Sonos Ace.
Where to Preorder the Sonos Ace You can preorder the Sonos Ace in black or white for $449 from Sonos and Best Buy ahead of the June 5th release date. Alternatively, starting May 28th, preorders will be available on Amazon and B&H Photo. You can also sign up for release updates from these retailers to ensure you don’t miss out.
Sonos Ace marks the company’s foray into the world of wireless headphones, boasting premium build quality, comfort, and active noise cancellation. They’re also compatible with Sonos Arc and other Sonos soundbars.
While our final verdict on the Sonos Ace is pending further evaluation, initial impressions are promising. The seamless integration with Sonos Arc and upcoming compatibility with other soundbars like Sonos Ray and the second-gen Sonos Beam promise to elevate your audio experience to new heights. With support for head-tracking spatial audio, these headphones offer a personalized cinematic journey.
While it’s unfortunate they lack Wi-Fi music streaming capability and can’t be paired with Sonos speakers, the Sonos Ace compensates with its stylish design and exceptional comfort. Attention to detail is evident in features like the magnetic USB-C and headphone cable pouch within the carrying case, along with a fingerprint-resistant coating to maintain its sleek appearance. The addition of physical buttons ensures an intuitive user experience, shaping up what seems to be a well-rounded headphone offering from Sonos.
