Save up to $600 on Samsung, LG, Sony, and more
TL;DR: Get these premium soundbars for up to $600 off when you shop sales at Walmart, Best Buy, and in the PCMag Shop (which, full disclosure, is owned by the Mashable’s parent company Ziff Davis).
Today’s electronics manufacturers are in an arms race to make the sleekest, flattest TVs possible, a task made easier recently by developments in OLED technologies. That’s fine and good for the displays themselves, but not so great for their sound systems; there’s just no room in a wallpaper-thin TV for decent speakers.
Enter: the soundbar, a long, rectangular device packed with speakers that you can pair with your TV to beef up its audio quality.
We’ve compiled a list of our favorite soundbars on the market, and in the process learned that you could easily spend upwards of $1,000 on a really, really nice piece of equipment for your home theater setup.
But since we also know that price point is a tad unrealistic, we’ve rounded up the following deals on top-of-the-line soundbars made by Samsung, LG, Sony, Bose, and Vizio. If you take advantage of them anytime between now and Sunday evening, you’ll save up to a whopping 46%.
Check them out:
