Amazon
This powerful, surround sound-enabled JBL soundbar is currently marked down 42% on Amazon, bringing the price to $350 — $250 less than the regular price.
The standout feature of the JBL Bar 5.1 is “virtual surround sound,” which bounces sound off your room’s wall and ceiling to create a surround sound effect with just a single speaker. The bar supports 4K HD video from a built-in Chromecast, streaming devices, smart TVs, or AirPlay.
A 10-inch subwoofer is included in the JBL package, delivering deep base for the full theater experience.
Sony HT-S350 Soundbar with Subwoofer — $102 Off
Amazon
Sony’s HT-S350 Soundbar might be the best budget-friendly soundbar/subwoofer combo. Normally $280, the sound system is currently on sale for $100 less than that at $178.
Like any great soundbar, the HT-S350 nails ease-of-use. It can be connected to your TV via a simple HDMI Arc or regular HDMI cable, and works with Bluetooth to stream video or music from your phone. It also has user-friendly features like voice enhancement, so you can hear every word in that action movie, as well as seven sound modes tailored for different media types.
On the tech side, the HT-S350 punches above its price tag. It uses Sony’s S-Force Pro technology to create room-filling cinema-like sound at home, while the large 6.16-gallon subwoofer lends rich, deep bass.

Sony HT-G700 3.1CH Dolby Atmos Soundbar — $202 Off
Amazon
This Sony HT-G700 soundbar offers some fantastic bang for your buck — especially at just $398 ($202 less than retail).
The 3.1-channel system’s soundbar can create surround sound using only a single piece. The soundbar is also capable of manipulating audio inputs for a better experience, doing things like upscaling the sound quality and adjusting dialogue so you can hear every word. A powerful subwoofer, meantime, lends that low-end bass to elevate action sequences and soundtracks.
Another feature we love about the HT-G700 is its connectivity options. It can be hooked up using cables, like any soundbar, but it can also be connected to your TV via Bluetooth for a cleaner-looking media center.

TCL Alto 6+ — $30 Off
TCL
Another soundbar deal you won’t want to miss is this one on the TCL Alto 6+. This soundbar is down to just $99.99 from $129.99, saving you 23%.
Even at its low price, you can expect a decent bass-heavy wireless subwoofer and wireless connectivity through Bluetooth. This gadget is easy to set up too via HDMI or optical cables.

The only downside? It does not have Dolby Atmos for that cinema-quality surround sound like some of the other picks on this list. But, at its low price point of just $99.99, it’s worth considering.
