The Super Bowl is only a few days away now, which means we can expect to see plenty of last-minute sales on TVs, soundbars, and other home theater gear. But if you want to treat your Super Bowl party guests to an evening of immersive audio they’ll never forget, you’ll want to have a solid Bluetooth speaker lying around. Fortunately, we came across a great sale while vetting through Bluetooth speaker deals:

For a limited time, when you purchase the JBL Partybox Encore Essential through Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, and a handful of other retailers, you’ll only pay $250. The full MSRP on this model is $300.

Why you should buy the JBL Partybox Encore Essential

Nothing says “party” like a 100W speaker with a built-in, customizable RGB light show! The JBL Partybox Encore Essential delivers bold, bass-forward audio and can fill up most medium listening spaces with sound. It performs well both indoors and outdoors, too, and thanks to its IPX4 IP rating, you won’t have to worry about an accidental beverage spill putting an end to your tunes. The tough chassis also features a built-in carrying handle for seamless A-to-B portability.

On a full charge, you can expect up to six hours of playtime from the Partybox Encore Essential, so you shouldn’t have to worry about recharging before your Super Bowl shindig is over (actual battery performance will vary based on volume level, EQ settings, etc.).

We also recommend downloading the JBL Partybox app, which allows you to pair two Partybox speakers together for an even bigger soundstage. The app also provides audio customization tools and a handful of other settings.

It’s hard to say how long this discount is going to stick around, so today might be the best (and last) day to take advantage of this offer. Take $50 off the JBL Partybox Encore Essential when you purchase today. We also recommend having a look at our roundups of the best Amazon deals and the best Walmart deals for even more markdowns on top-rated Bluetooth speakers.

Sony’s WH-1000XM6 headphones just became more tempting for gamers who hate gaming headsets
The new update adds Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, giving Sony's premium noise-canceling cans a lower-latency trick for compatible gaming devices.
Sony WH-1000XM6.

Sony's WH-1000XM6 gaming mode is rolling out through firmware version 3.1.5, adding support for Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, or GMAP. The same update also includes general performance improvements, so WH-1000XM6 owners have a real reason to open the Sony Sound Connect app.

It's a handy upgrade for headphones built more for commutes or office silence than late-night matches. Bluetooth lag can make games feel faintly wrong, especially when a footstep or button press lands a fraction too late.

Acer’s 1,000Hz gaming monitor is real, expensive, and stuck waiting on a launch date

Electronics, Screen, Computer Hardware

Acer’s 1,000Hz gaming monitor has moved from announcement to Amazon listing. The XV273U F5 is priced at $699.99, giving competitive players a real number to weigh before one of the fastest displays headed to North America actually ships.

Availability is still the problem. Amazon lists the monitor as temporarily out of stock, and Acer has previously pointed to a Q4 North America launch window instead of a firm release date.
