Available in black or white, the Sonos Ace wireless headphones, now $349 (down from $449), are at their lowest price ever, according to online price trackers. They have a metal headband that is said to adjust smoothly, while their vegan leather-lined earpads and memory foam cushioning create a snug seal that’s comfortable for most. But it’s worth noting that the Ace is on the heavier side compared to lighter options like the Apple AirPods Max.
The Ace's on-ear controls are an intuitive setup that keeps things simple for everyday use. There's a Content Key on the right earcup that handles playback with simple presses and slides for volume adjustment, while another button toggles between Noise Cancellation and Aware Mode, giving you flexibility depending on your environment. The Sonos app adds customization options like spatial audio tracking, managing device connections, toggling wear detection, automatic playback, and basic EQ adjustments, though it’s not entirely feature-rich. In testing, according to this PCMag review, the Ace delivered excellent noise cancellation, effectively muting low-frequency rumbles but struggling with higher frequencies in noisier environments.
The included hard-shell case is stylish and functional, storing the headphones when folded flat (though they don’t fully collapse like the Bose QuietComfort Ultra). Inside, there’s space for the USB-C-to-USB-C and USB-C-to-3.5mm cables, which enable wired playback as long as the headphones are powered on. However, connecting via cable will disconnect any active Bluetooth connection, which might be a hassle if you frequently switch between devices. Plus, lack of wifi support means you won’t be able to stream Sonos Radio directly—a potential drawback for those already invested in the Sonos ecosystem.
Battery life is a solid 30 hours with Noise Cancellation or Aware Mode active, though your mileage may vary based on volume and codec usage. Speaking of codecs, the Ace supports AAC, SBC, and AptX Lossless—great for Android users with compatible devices, though high-res streaming fans might prefer LDAC-enabled options like the Sony WH-1000XM5.
