![Hands-on: Sonos Ace Ultra fix nearly everything I wanted from the original [Video]](https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2026/10/sonos.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1600)
I have been a huge Sonos fan and customer for years, dating back to the original Sonos One. So, about two years ago, when I heard that Sonos was entering the over-ear headphone market, I knew I had to give it a try.
