Tested By Digital Trends Bose Smart Soundbar.

We’re always on the lookout for great soundbar deals because no TV should live without one of these plug-and-play devices. Brands like Samsung, LG, and Sony have been producing soundbars for years, but we’re always partial to the tech released by dedicated audio companies. As luck would have it, we came across this Bose offer earlier today:

For a limited time, when you purchase the Bose Smart Soundbar with Dolby Atmos through Amazon, Best Buy, Crutchfield, and other retailers, you’ll only wind up paying $450 when this model usually sells for $500. We named this the “best small soundbar” in our ranking of the best soundbars of 2025.

Why you should buy the Bose Smart Soundbar

While it may not look like much of a sound system, the Bose Smart Soundbar is perfectly capable of filling small to medium-sized rooms with immersive audio. And thanks to Bose’s TruePlay technology, the soundbar can be calibrated to best match your room acoustics. With its multi-driver design (two of which are designed to fire sound up and back down) and Dolby Atmos support, the Bose Smart is able to virtualize a full Atmos configuration. From floor to ceiling, no corner of your theater will be left without sound waves!

With its built-in Alexa and Google Assistant capabilities, you’ll also be able to use the Bose Smart Soundbar as a smart speaker. Whether you want to check the weather, stream your go-to playlists, or control smart home devices, Alexa and Bose have got you covered. Other noteworthy features include Bose’s AI Dialogue Mode for enhanced conversation clarity.

We tested the previous generation of the Bose Smart Soundbar (the Bose Smart Soundbar 600), and reviewer Simon Cohen said: “For small-to-medium-sized rooms, it’s got all the presence and punch you need.”

Order the Bose Smart Soundbar while it’s still $50 off, and be sure to check out our lists of the best Bose deals and best Bluetooth speaker deals for even more markdowns on top audio devices!

You can now watch Instagram Reels on Apple TV, because why not?
Instagram's new TV app supports Reels, longer videos, and live shows, plus cross-device playback so users can pick up where they left off.
Instagram App on Apple TV main featured

Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.

The hand-finished ATH-AWX7000 uses Kiso cypress, Echizen lacquer, and a new composite diaphragm.
Audio Technica ATH-AWX7000 wooden headphones launched

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.

The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.
