Sonos Releases Ace Ultra Headphones, Fixing Glitches of Original Ace

Sonos has launched the Ace Ultra, a refined version of its earlier Ace wireless headphones. While the original Ace was praised for its solid build, clear sound, and comfort, it suffered from a problematic feature that let users reroute audio from a Sonos soundbar to the headphones. At launch, that feature was glitchy, worked only with the $1,000 Arc soundbar, and supported only one pair of headphones at a time—issues that have since been corrected. The new Ace Ultra maintain the familiar design but deliver improved internal components, offering a smoother, more reliable experience for users who want to listen to TV audio without disturbing others. This update restores confidence in Sonos’s headphone line and enhances the brand’s ecosystem integration.
