Soundbars are really expensive, there's no doubt about it, which means the best time to get a soundbar is 100% during a sales event like Prime Day or Black Friday. Right now, some awesome sales are coming in, like the Sonos Beam 2, just $369 on Amazon.

Because soundbars are so pricey, I've rounded up some of the best deals this Prime Day. These deals include iconic brands like Sonos, Samsung, Sony, and JBL, and the sales extend to both the U.K. and the U.S., so keep scrolling!

Best soundbar deals

Sony HT-S100F
U.S.
Sony HT-S100F: was $159 now $98.50 at Amazon

I'm not going to lie to you: $99 used to be the HT-S100F's MSRP. Unfortunately, some time around April, the MRSP was raised to $159. I'll let you make up your own mind as to why this occurred, but those are the facts. Sony tends to hover this soundbar at around $120-$160 now, so when I saw the HT-S100F at its original price, I knew I had to make a big deal about it.

Sony HT-SF150
U.K.
Sony HT-SF150: was £150 now £89 at Amazon

If you're in the U.K., you'll want to check out this deal. For some unknown reason, the HT-S100F is called the HT-SF150 in the U.K., but the awesome deal is the same. Just £89 for the best value soundbar (sans sale) is beyond impressive.

Samsung HW-B650
U.S.
Samsung HW-B650: was $397 now $225 at Amazon

I'm going to be completely honest with you: in March, when I published my review of the Samsung HW-B650, its MSRP was $249. For one reason or another, the MSRP skyrocketed to $397 in April. I'm not 100% sure why this happened, but it did. As a result, this $229 sale price is only $20 off the original MSRP of $249, but this is still the lowest price since February 2024.

Samsung B650D
U.K.
Samsung B650D: was £185 now £174 at Amazon

In the U.K., the B650D's RRP is a lot lower, so this doesn't look like as much of an epic saving. However, £159 for a soundbar + subwoofer with DTS Virtual: X is still amazing. This means the soundbar can create a virtual surround sound experience without needing rear speakers (which are an extra purchase).

Sonos Beam 2
Sonos Beam 2: was $499 now $369 at Amazon

Although not its lowest ever price (that'd be $369), $418 for a Sonos soundbar is a pretty epic deal. The Beam 2 got a nice 4-star rating in our review, due to its lovely sound, Dolby Atmos capabilities, and is a 5.0 channel soundbar. This means it doesn't have a subwoofer or channel speakers, but it has 5 speakers in the soundbar itself for immersive watching.

Polk Audio Signa S3
Polk Audio Signa S3: was $299 now $245 at Amazon

While I haven't personally tested the Signa S3, I have tested the Polk Audio Signa S4, which is just the newer version of the S3. I gave the S4 an almost unbeatable 4.5 star rating, praising its Dolby Atmos performance, affordability, and awesome sound. The S3 has many of the same specs: it just has 2 speakers in the center soundbar rather than the S4's 3.

JBL Bar 2.0
JBL Bar 2.0: was $219 now $199 at Amazon

This is JBL's most affordable soundbar. It's a 2.0 channel, which means it has 2 speakers in the center soundbar and that's it. This is one of the cheapest and space-saving ways to upgrade from TV speakers. If you want a soundbar with a subwoofer, though, may I direct you to the Polk and Samsung soundbars mentioned above?

Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar
Lowest ever price
Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar: was $899 now $699 at Amazon

The Bose Smart Ultra soundbar is at its lowest ever price right now. Previously it's dipped to $714, but never $699 before. This premium soundbar has a 5.1.2 channel setup and works with Bose's subwoofer range (sold separately). My favorite part of the Bose Smart range (I own the Bose Smart Soundbar below) is that it links up with music streaming apps for seamless listening.

Bose Smart Soundbar 2024
Bose Smart Soundbar 2024: was $499 now $399 at Amazon

This is the soundbar I own. I use this soundbar literally every day, for everything from watching YouTube, to blockbuster movies on Disney+, and just having a little party in my apartment. I love being able to seamlessly switch between music, and TV. I never struggle to hear dialogue when watching movies with this soundbar thanks to Bose's AI dialogue enhancement.

JBL Bar 9.1
JBL Bar 9.1: was $1,199 now $759 at Amazon

I've tested the JBL Bar 1300X, but unfortunately that isn't on sale this Prime Day. One of the next best options is the JBL Bar 9.1. This awesome soundbar has a separate subwoofer for booming bass and removable rear speakers. The Bar 9.1 has true Dolby Atmos (when you remove the rear speakers and place them behind you!) and is just $759 right now — that's a 37% discount.

Polk Audio Signa S4
Polk Audio Signa S4: was $449 now $299 at Amazon

I'm gonna be real with you: when I first reviewed this soundbar, it was just $399. The price increased in around April — I wonder why? Anyway, now it's on sale for $299, which is still $100 off the original MSRP. You can check out my 4.5-star Polk Audio Signa S4 review for full specs, but the long and short of it is this: I always recommend this soundbar + subwoofer combo for hi-fi newbies who want an awesome setup for less.
