Super Bowl Deal Alert: Free sound bar included with top-tier Samsung TV purchases

If you’re making a last minute bid to steal guests from competing Super Bowl parties, Samsung has an intriguing deal for you. For a limited time, in the lead-up to the big game, consumers that purchase a Samsung ES7500 or ES8000 LED TV, will can get a HW-E450 Sound Bar for free.

Both televisions involved in the promotion are full-featured Smart units, and when we reviewed the ES8000, we came away very impressed. That said, price point was probably the biggest difference between it and its little brother (the ES7500), which is also an attractive buy. Both of these TVs would be worthy purchases on their own, but throw in a $350 sound bar just for kicks, and now we’re really talking.

The 2.1-channel HW-E450 Sound Bar features Bluetooth, USB 2.0, and HDMI connectivity options, and is capable of a hefty 280 watts total audio output; more than enough to rattle your walls when the crowd erupts. Pair that with either television mentioned above and you’ve got the beginnings of a respectable home theater system.

Now, if only Samsung could offer your favorite team a ticket to New Orleans.

Marantz’s powerful new integrated amplifier will run you $15,000
The Marantz MODEL 10 Reference Integrated Amplifier.

When legendary audio makers Marantz come out with something that they're calling "luxury," you know it's gong to be good. It's been eight years since the company launched a reference-quality line of stereo components, but today Marantz is announcing not one, but three models in its new 10 Series Collection. Along with the powerful, $15,000 Model 10 Reference Integrated Amplifier, the company will launch a new Reference Network Audio Player and an SACD (Super Audio Compact Disc) player on an undisclosed later date.

With "available soon" as the only tease of a release date for the Marantz Model 10, the specs and details from the press release will have to do for the time being, so it's a good thing that there are some juicy ones. The Model 10 was inspired by "some of the most iconic hi-fi components in Marantz’s storied history -- yet at the same time, the engineering inside ensures that each component is both truly contemporary and ready to make the most of hi-fi’s digital future."
