Enhance your display's audio, interact with the Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa, and expand your Sonos ecosystem with the white Sonos Arc Soundbar. It features an 11-driver design with dedicated up- and side-firing drivers that, along with Dolby Atmos compatibility, create an immersive 3D soundstage with your compatible TV and content. With Amazon Alexa and the Google Assistant built-in, you can voice control the Arc and enjoy all your favorite features of either virtual assistant. The Arc is also compatible with Siri when paired with your compatible iOS devices. The soundbar can be placed in front of your TV or mounted to the wall (with optional hardware), and Trueplay technology helps optimize the audio output to match its surroundings.

Enjoy your TV shows, movies, and games with the immersive sound of Dolby Atmos. The Arc's upward-firing drivers help create a multidimensional soundstage that seems to move around you to provide added clarity, detail, and depth.

The Arc's processing creates five phased-array channels designed to deliver sound to your ears from all directions at the right moment.

This feature optimizes the sound for the unique acoustics of your room and calibrates the height channels for precise localization.

Stream music, radio, podcasts, and more from your favorite services via the Sonos app or Apple AirPlay 2 when the TV is off.

11 drivers, including elliptical drivers and angled side tweeters, help produce vivid detail and augmented bass.

With its elongated shape and seamless facade, the Arc can discreetly mount to the wall with optional hardware or sit beneath the TV without drawing focus away from your content.

A magnetic sensor detects when the Arc is mounted and adjusts the EQ to temper bass resonance.

The Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa are built-in, so you can play music, check news, set alarms, get your questions answered, and more, hands-free. With AirPlay 2, you can also ask Siri to play Apple Music.

Turn on the Speech Enhancement feature in the app to clarify dialogue when characters talk quietly or action intensifies.

Wirelessly connect a Sub and a pair of One SL speakers as rears for an even more immersive listening experience, or connect to other Sonos speakers around your home for multiroom listening.

The bandwidth of HDMI eARC supports multichannel audio and has lip-sync compensation built-in.

The Arc detects how bright the room is and automatically adjusts the brightness of the LEDs to keep them visible but not distracting.

Bring your phone up to the Arc to automatically pair and securely transfer Wi-Fi credentials using NFC (near-field communication).

Play, pause, skip tracks, adjust the volume, and group rooms by tapping or swiping the top of the soundbar.

The Arc connects to your TV's HDMI eARC port with a single cord to automatically sync with your remote.

Sonos can update the Arc with new features, services, and app compatibility as they become available.

Turn the microphone off with a tap. The LED light is hardwired, and will also turn off so you know the voice assistant isn't listening.

Q: 1. Can they be used as background cards? Will they be reflective, is what I'm asking

Q: 2. If I'm filming the WB cards and then using WB selector/eyedropper in post (in premiere pro), should I use the Gray card or the White Card with the eyedropper tool? Feels weird using a gray card for WB. Looking for consistent colors across multiple takes

A: One can use the gray card in the Vello White Balance Card Set (Large) for white balance, however it is recommended that one use the white card for best results.

Q: 3. What percent black are the 3 cards?

Q: 4. What should the technical correct middle gray IRE value be on the waveform for Rec709?

A: The best IRE value to set for the middle gray card of the Vello White Balance Card Set (Medium) (B&H# VEWBCMII) will vary by your camera and chosen camera settings. As such, you will want to try out the settings until you find the one that works best for your needs. However, many people prefer to shoot around 40 when using a log format and a bit below 50 when shooting with linear exposure.

Q: 5. Are these cards waterproof? I'd like to take them diving.
