This inexpensive soundbar packs in loads for the price. It's obviously going to make your TV sound better than the built in speakers, but there's also a Bluetooth connection so that you can listen to your music wirelessly. There's even a built in subwoofer for extra bass.

This is the first soundbar with a subwoofer on the list. That means you're going to get far more bass than with some of the other options, great for movies and action-packed TV shows. You can even wall-mount the bar if your TV is on the wall.

This Sony soundbar doesn't come with a subwoofer for extra bass, but packs in some other extra features instead. It's a 3.1 channel bar so there's a built in sub, and DTS X and Dolby Atmos support for some surround sound. This $200 saving is one of the biggest we've seen on this bar yet.

Bose Smart Soundbar

This Dolby Atmos soundbar comes with a meaty subwoofer for loads of extra bass. It can also connect with extra Sony speakers (bought separately) for a more separated surround experience. This $200 discount is only a few dollars of the bar's previous lowest price.

This is less a soundbar as much as it is a collection of different speakers that work together for a surround sound experience. There's a sub for bass, surround speakers for physical surround, and a bar for stereo and center channels. It's all based around a little box that plugs into your TV and feeds them all wirelessly.
