Currently have an Arc with a pair of Symfonisk bookshelf speakers as surrounds. Now with the Arc Ultra out, I'm need help deciding what to upgrade.

Do I upgrade the Arc to the Arc Ultra and keep the Symfonisks as surrounds?

Or do I upgrade the Symfonisk speakers to Era 300s, and keep the Arc?

It's about the same amount of money. I listen to quite a bit of music with this setup (other Sonos speakers throughout the home). I'm not sure if I consume Atmos content, not sure my TV can pass it through the arc channel.

What would you do?

If this is the case getting Era 300s to add to the Arc, kinda defeats the purpose. They are designed to work together to achieve an immersive experience, so unless you have a music service that is capable to streaming Dolby Atmos content, you are asking to validate purchasing something you do not have the need or services for.

If you are intent is to have the best regardless, get the Ultra. Don't forget the Sub Gen 4 to accompany it.
