Sonos Arc SL Shadow Soundbar (Refurb) for $509
The Arc is Sonos' flagship product. This is a premium soundbar and it shows. You can't get much better in terms of sound quality from a soundbar, and that's thanks to its chunkier 45" length. There's enough space in there to contain eleven precisely engineered internal speakers, including two dedicated height channels. It's Dolby Atmos ready, and there's enough power here that you can probably get away without a subwoofer. The Sonos Arc also has Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant built-in so that you can use it as a smart speaker. It has other nifty features, like an ambient light sensor, HDMI eARC, capacitive touch controls, WiFi, and more.
The "SL" in the Sonos Arc SL means "silence", and that's because the only difference is the lack of a microphone. The SL removes the mic for people who are worried about Alexa or Google Assistant inadvertantly listening in on conversation. That means, however, the Arc itself cannot receive voice commands, however that is solvable by using another smart device that does.
Sonos refurb products go through pretty rigorous testing (probably more so than new). They come with all accessories, manuals, and documentation and are reshipped in "pristine" packaging. Most importantly of all, Sonos stands by their refurbs enough to grant them the same 1 year warranty as buying new.
