Sound Bar Deals

The Amazon Fire TV Soundbar is basically the no-fuss upgrade your living room has been waiting for. It’s a 2.0-channel setup with Dolby Audio and DTS Virtual:X that brings a noticeable boost to clarity and depth without needing a whole surround system. Dialogue finally sounds like dialogue, not a muffled whisper under music and effects. It connects easily over Bluetooth or HDMI, and setup is refreshingly simple, especially if you already use a Fire TV. It’s now $84.99, down from $119.99, which makes it an easy yes if your current speakers are still stuck in 2013.

This setup is what your living room has been waiting for. The Amazon Fire TV Soundbar Plus brings in 5.1 channels of Dolby Atmos sound with a built-in subwoofer and surround speakers, which means explosions finally sound like explosions, not like someone dropping a box in the next room.

Right now, it’s priced at $390 which is $100 off its regular price, which is a pretty great excuse to give your TV the upgrade it’s been begging for.

It’s now $453, down from $549, and if you’ve been waiting for something that makes your TV sound like more than a screen, this is it.

The Sony S100F is the kind of soundbar you get when you just want something that works. It’s compact enough for small spaces or office setups but still gives you noticeably clearer dialogue and deeper sound than your TV’s built-in speakers. The bass reflex speaker brings just enough low-end punch, and Bluetooth makes it easy to stream from your phone if you’re not using it for shows.

It’s marked down by 39%, and if you’re shopping around, you can also check out our full list of the best soundbars tested by our experts.

It uses Adaptive Sound Lite to fine-tune audio based on what you’re watching, and Q Symphony keeps it in sync with compatible Samsung TVs. It’s currently marked down by 28% and a pretty sweet upgrade without needing a separate subwoofer. Hurry up.
