  "account": "Sonos has recently unveiled two new additions to its lineup: the Sonos Beam Ultra soundbar and the Sonos Ace Ultra headphones. However, these new products come with a higher price tag. Fortunately, during this year's Labor Day sales, several existing Sonos audio equipment has been discounted at Best Buy.\n\nFirstly, the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) soundbar is now available for $369, down from its original $499 price. Despite being an older model, this four-star rated soundbar is an excellent compact choice that offers a wide soundstage in a small package. It requires minimal setup and is an affordable upgrade to improve built-in TV speakers. Its integration with the Sonos ecosystem, along with Dolby Atmos support, makes it an attractive option for those looking to enhance their home theater system.\n\nSecondly, the Sonos Ace headphones are now priced at $299 after a $100 discount. These headphones, previously rated four stars, offer powerful and clear sound, perfect for watching movies, TV shows, or sports without disturbing others. They support wired or wireless hi-res audio and boast up to 30 hours of battery life. Although they excel in audio performance, their integration with the Sonos ecosystem is not as seamless as desired. Nonetheless, the savings make them a tempting buy.",
