Amazon and Best Buy drop huge deals on brand-name soundbars

It’s no surprise that wallpaper-thin TVs don’t have room for top-tier speakers. While watching with stunning visuals is a great experience, it can get annoying when the audio is not up to par. If you find adding a whole home theater system a bit much, soundbars are the way to go. They are slim, unobtrusive, and easy to set up. Some models can even imitate a full-featured surround sound system.

So you’ve finally decided to say goodbye to your TV’s tinny, muffled speakers. We’ve rounded up here top-rated soundbar systems from

Bose,

Sony,

and

LG,

all of which are discounted by up to $300 off. Upgrade your viewing experience at home by jumping on these booming soundbar deals.

LG SL6Y

– $250 ($150 off)

If the first two options are too rich for your blood, you might want to consider the LG SL6Y instead. This model comes equipped with the leading audio processing technology that LG claims is even better than CD audio quality. This tech can reproduce a high 24-bit sound resolution which is as close to the original sound as you can get. Another headline feature is the DTS Virtual: X, which is responsible for delivering a three-dimensional cinematic surround sound even without the use of extra speakers. The included subwoofer just makes the listening experience even better, with pounding bass making you feel as if you are part of the scene.

Since different genres and content come with various sound profiles, we tend to think constantly reaching for the remote to adjust the volume is something that is unavoidable. Not with this LG soundbar, though. It has an adaptive sound control that automatically adjusts the sound level depending on what you are watching. As you switch from sports to drama to action, or when a show takes a commercial break, the soundbar adapts to provide the optimal listening experience.

Pairing this soundbar to your TV and other devices is a breeze. It utilizes Bluetooth 4.2 for seamless syncing and can also connect via the LG Sound Sync (works with select LG TVs). There are also ports available for HDMI, USB, and optical audio devices for further connectivity options.

Bring your music, movies, and other entertainment to new heights by getting your hands on the LG SL6Y. This soundbar and subwoofer package is available on Best Buy for only $250, leaving you with $150 in savings. This offer is the best second only to Black Friday Soundbar deals.
