Cyber Monday is the perfect time to upgrade your TV room with a new soundbar, a simple addition that can revolutionize everything you watch. We found a variety of discounts on everything from budget-friendly standalone bars to expansive home theater systems with premium bars at the center.
Make sure to check out the Absolute Best Cyber Monday Deals, and all the rest of our deals coverage for the best discounts on our favorite gear.
Updated December 1: We’ve updated pricing on these deals, and added two new deals for the LG S95TR and Sony Bravia Theater Quad.
Our favorite soundbar for most people, the Yamaha SR-C30A, hits its lowest price in the last 30 days for Cyber Monday at just under $210 from Amazon. What it lacks in high-end features, it more than makes up for with its super simple and compact setup, and the sound quality is more than good enough for your weekly movie night. It even has a wireless subwoofer, so you get all the benefits of dedicated bass without having to run wires across your living room.
An upgraded pick for the discerning ear, the Sony Bravia Theater System 6 is marked down by 25% on Amazon for Cyber Monday. This 5.1 surround system is helmed by an impressive soundbar in a surprisingly compact package, assisted by a chunky subwoofer and two surround speakers. While it lacks upfiring speakers, it makes up for it with excellent detail and smooth transitions around the system. If you crave real surround with physical speakers to compliment your soundbar, this is a great pick.
Another option with an included subwoofer that’s a little more budget-friendly, the JBL Bar 500MK2 boasts a big, bassy subwoofer that helps round out the physical limitations most soundbars fight against. As a result, the JBL bar itself is slim and compact, while still boasting virtual Dolby Atmos performance that’s above average for the price point. It’s discounted to $450 on Amazon, a $200 break from its usual $650 price tag.
While we’ve seen this price before, we’re still happy to save $100 on the Bose Smart Soundbar, bringing the price down to just $399 on Amazon. It has some unique and genuinely useful features, like an AI Dialogue Mode that can help highlight talking while keeping background noise and music balanced. This soundbar can also connect with the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds for an immersive surround mode that puts you in the perfect center of your own home theater.
If you don’t have space for a separate subwoofer, or have downstairs neighbors who wouldn’t appreciate it as much as you, consider the Klipsch Flexus Core 200. It’s currently marked down to just $475 for Cyber Monday, a $75 discount from its full price. Even without bass assistance, it boasts a surprisingly rich sound, with excellent detail and impressive high end. It even has Dolby Atmos, so you won’t feel like you’re missing out on the latest features just because you only have room for a soundbar.
Our favorite budget pick, the Vizio All-in-One Soundbar, is even more budget-friendly for Cyber Monday, with a $30 discount at Target bringing the price down to just $120. Despite the relatively low price tag, this soundbar has a balanced sound that’s going to be a big upgrade from your TV’s built-in speakers, at the very least. You’ll have to make a few compromises on ports, and there’s no Wi-Fi, but at a fraction of the price of our other bars, it’s hard to complain about the little stuff.
If you’re looking for a soundbar that specifically shines in Dolby Atmos, the Samsung HW-Q990D is marked down to just $1,000 from Best Buy for Cyber Monday. It shines in both its excellent detail and surround effects, making this a worthwhile premium pick for the relatively high price point. It doesn’t take shortcuts on inputs or audio format support, but it does lack some more niche features like auto-calibration or Chromecast. Still, if you’ve got the cash to spend, this is an extremely impressive soundbar with a healthy discount.
For a surprisingly inexpensive soundbar with both Dolby Atmos and a dedicated subwoofer, the Polk Audio Signa S4 still packs quite the punch. Amazon has it marked down to just $359 for Cyber Monday, a $90 discount from the list price. It has a simple setup process thanks to the HDMI eARC connection, and a 3.1.2-channel setup with Dolby Atmos that has a decently wide soundstage and rich, room-filling sound.
If you’re already in the Sonos ecosystem, the Sonos Arc Ultra Soundbar is marked down to $879 on Amazon, a $220 break from the typical price. This feature-rich soundbar has excellent software support thanks to some iterating from Sonos, and a musicality that you won’t find on many other audio setups this simple.
This soundbar is one of the best performers in its class, and can be an especially good choice for those with newer LG TVs, like the LG G5. (Or maybe those shopping for a new LG TV!) You can pair two of these to connect wirelessly, and use this soundbar in tandem with your TV’s built-in speakers for better sound immersion.
If you’re looking for the experience of a soundbar without the big bar, this discreet audio system has four speakers that can wirelessly connect with control box so that you can immerse yourself in sound without the usual setup.
