Sonos has made a significant mark in the home speaker market, and enthusiasts have been eagerly anticipating the brand’s entry into the headphone sector for years. The wait is over, and the new offering is here.
Introducing the Sonos Ace. These premium over-ear Bluetooth headphones boast remarkable lossless and spatial audio capabilities, exceptional Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), an Aware Mode, and a cutting-edge home theater experience powered by Sonos’ TrueCinema technology.

Stylish Design and All-Day Comfort
Upon unboxing, the Ace’s sleek and distinctive profile immediately caught our attention. The combination of premium metal accents and a sophisticated matte finish is sure to impress style-conscious consumers.
Despite their striking appearance, comfort is not compromised. The plush memory foam padding and lightweight design ensure a comfortable fit for extended listening sessions. This is especially beneficial, as the Sonos Ace offers up to 30 hours of playback on a full charge and can power up for 3 hours of use with just a 3-minute quick charge using the provided USB-C cable.
Superior Personal Sound
In terms of audio quality, Sonos leverages its extensive expertise to equip the Ace headphones with high-fidelity sound through custom-designed drivers. This technology allows for an immersive experience that transforms your favorite tracks, enabling you to hear and feel every nuance.
Active Noise Cancellation ensures that unwanted background noise fades away, making these headphones an ideal companion for travel. However, if you need to stay aware of your environment—while walking through a bustling city or during office hours—the Aware mode permits ambient sounds to pass through, keeping you connected.
The headphones also boast a unique feature: instantly switching TV audio from a compatible Sonos soundbar to Ace with a simple press. The spatial audio experience, enhanced with Dolby Atmos, surrounds you in rich sound from all angles while dynamic head tracking keeps you centered within the action, regardless of your movements.
Conclusion, Pricing, and Availability
Our comprehensive testing of these ingeniously designed Ace headphones revealed that they provide unparalleled comfort, top-notch audio quality, and a transformative home theater experience that only Sonos could deliver.
The Sonos Ace is now available in Black or Soft White color options for £449/$449. For further details and purchasing information, please visit sonos.com.
