Improving the sound quality of your TV setup doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Right now, you can buy a TCL Alto 5 soundbar for just $60 at Amazon (unless you decide to wait for Black Friday Soundbar deals). That’s a saving of $20 and a great deal if you’re looking for a cheap way to upgrade your audio experience. In terms of soundbar deals, you really can’t go wrong with this one.

The TCL Alto 5 promises to offer clean and loud sound in a minimalist design. Specially tuned to deliver distortion-free sound at any volume, it’s perfect whether you’re watching the latest movies, catching up on sports, or listening to some great music. That’s thanks to the TCL Alto 5 offering three different sound modes — music, movies, and news — with each offering optimized performance that reflects the content you’re listening to.

The sound quality might not be comparable to much pricier fare but the TCL Alto 5 offers up deep bass ports that aim to heighten the audio experience through low frequency sounds as well as bass-heavy moments. You won’t miss out on useful features either with it taking seconds for you to hook up this soundbar to any Bluetooth-enabled device so you can easily stream music straight to the TCL Alto 5 within moments.

Alongside that, you can also connect this soundbar to your TV via multiple options. These include Optical, IR Pass Through, and Aux, so any TV can easily hook up to this budget soundbar. It comes with all the cables you need as well, saving you money and hassle of tracking down the cables separately.

Why you should buy an Amazon Fire 7 tablet
The Amazon Fire 7 tablet can definitely be seen as a basic tablet, and that's okay. But that doesn't mean it isn't without its advantages beyond price. Our Amazon Fire 7 tablet review, for example, praises the the 7-inch tablet's portability and its optimization for streaming. We've even listed it as the best budget Kindle alternative for its ability to support "a huge range of e-book formats including Kindle's AZW, AZW3, and KFX, plus EPUB, PDF, TXT, and more."
