I found the best Black Friday soundbar deals with Dolby Atmos: Up to 50% off Bose, Sonos, Samsung and JBL
The best Dolby Atmos soundbars are expensive. There's no way around that. To get room-filling, expansive theater-quality sound, you need to fork over a decent amount of dough.
That's why Black Friday is one of the best times to grab a soundbar. When the discounts are this incredible, you may as well upgrade your home theater for as little money as possible. I highly recommend the Bose Smart Soundbar (2024) for just $399 on Amazon right now — this is $100 off and the soundbar I personally own and use.
I've reviewed 15 soundbars this year from big names like Bose, Samsung and Sony, and also budget bars from lesser-known brands. To help you choose which Dolby Atmos soundbar to buy, I've rounded up the 5 best discounts this Black Friday.

The Polk Audio Signa S4 is my go-to recommendation for Dolby Atmos sound on a budget. This soundbar has a fantastic 3.1.2 channel configuration with a wireless subwoofer for extra floor-shaking bass. This soundbar is $90 off right now, making it a steal.

The Bose Smart Soundbar is a great beginner soundbar. With a 3.0.2 channel setup, it has great surround sound, even in shows and movies you least expect it. The soundbar can even upcode non-Atmos content into "fake" suround sound. The dialogue is crisp thanks to Bose's AI dialogue mode, and the bass is surprisingly great when listening to music via AirPlay. Although it's not as room-filling as pricier alternatives, it's a fantastic option. You can even add Bose's Sub 700 ($899) as an extra.

This is my favorite mid-range soundbar. With a fantastic 3.1.2 channel arrangement, the Samsung Q600F has expansive sound both horizontally and vertically, and it offers crystal-clear dialogue. Although it doesn't have any smart home features like AirPlay, if you're after a soundbar and subwoofer that does everything to earn its place on your TV stand, then this is it.

The Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar is a step-up from the $399 Bose Smart Soundbar. This option is for customers who want a bit more pizzazz to their home cinema and don't mind spending extra. The Smart Ultra boasts a 5.1.2 channel system with added bass. It also has the fantastic AI dialogue mode and smart home features like wireless control and AirPlay. As with the Smart Soundbar, it's compatible with Bose's Subs, too, for even heavier bass.

Of course, the Sonos Arc Ultra is buildable with Sonos subs and rears, so you can continue to add to your cinema room as you go.

With a huge 11.1.4 channel arrangement, the Samsung Q990D is the best of the best. If you want a serious movie-theater-quality soundbar system, it's got to be the Q990D. This soundbar has a subwoofer and two rear speakers, meaning you get true Dolby Atmos. As with other 'Q' series Samsung soundbars, you also get access to premium AI-powered room calibration so your speakers adapt to your surroundings — not the other way around.
