"Sonos is offering a 30% discount on its ever-so-reliable headphones. The Sonos Ace are now available at an all-time low price of $279 -- down from $399, which is $50 less than the $449 launch price. So, you are getting $170 off from the 2024 price. This is not only the best Black Friday deal for Sonos soundbar users like me but also for those who are looking for a pair of flagship headphones, but don't want to spend over $350 on the 2025 models."
"I have worn and carried the Sonos Ace in my backpack often since their mid-2024 release. I love the vibrant, lively, and dynamic sound with a strong bass and treble response. They aren't as bass-heavy as the Sony XM6 and have a wider soundstage than the Bose QuietComfort Ultra. As my colleague Jada Jones says, "The Ace don't sound as detailed as the Sony XM6, but their bold sound profile has a cinematic feel primed for enjoying music, movies, and TV shows.""
"Moreover, they look great while doing so. I have the White model, and it looks classy. The Bose QC Ultra 2 in White look more elegant, but Sonos Ace's flat earcups have a distinct look to them. They are modern and stylish, yet easy to use. There are several design choices that make them intuitive in usage. For instance, the mesh inside the magnetic earpads has color accents to indicate left and right, so I don't have to look for L or R."
The Sonos Ace launched in mid-2024 and competes with Sony WH-1000XM6 and Bose QuietComfort Ultra models. The headphones deliver a vibrant, lively, and dynamic sound signature with strong bass and treble response, a wider soundstage than the Bose, and less bass emphasis than Sony. The design features flat earcups, modern styling, and intuitive touches like color-accents in the magnetic earpad mesh to indicate left and right. Button controls on the earcup add usability. During Black Friday the price dropped 30% to $279, making the headphones a compelling flagship value under $350.
