Getting a TV can actually be a stressor if you’re not the type that likes to tinker with things. Since the vast majority of TVs today don’t produce great sound, you’ll have to go through the hassle of choosing a soundbar. But that’s not all! You also have to connect your soundbar to your TV, which isn’t always trivial.
That’s why we like this deal that saves you $200 on a QLED TV and gives you a matching soundbar that you know will work with it and be easy to assemble. Normally the 50-inch Amazon Fire TV Omni and Fire TV Soundbar bundle would cost $600, but right now you can get it for an impressively affordable $400. Tap the button below to see the deal. Then, keep reading below to get our take on this bundle’s components.
The primary ingredient of the bundle is naturally the TV, and it’s a pretty great place to start, considering we named it one of the best Amazon Fire TV devices in its own right. When we did our Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED review, we said that it was the “best Fire TV experience yet.” One reason for this was its hyper-convenient voice assistant feature, while another was its ability to be a smart home hub, quickly connecting to Ring devices and other Amazon-affiliated smart home wares. It has a fantastic screen too, with a solid 4K resolution and HDR 10. This is an approachable TV that anybody can love.
And then there’s the soundbar. Our Amazon Fire TV Soundbar review said two things about it that anybody interested in this bundle need to consider. Firstly, “It doesn’t get much simpler than the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar.” If you’re intimidated or just can’t be bothered to get into the weeds of proper wiring, sound balancing, and the other trappings of advanced home theater creations, this should be music to your ears. This is plug-and-play, that’s it. Secondly, our reviewer said that the bar is “surprisingly immersive” due to its deeper-than-expected bass and emphasis on frequencies with the human voice spectrum, making dialogue sound great.
When combined together, this makes a killer kit at $600. This deal nets you $200 off, making the bundle just $400. It’s a steal for anyone wanting a great experience with almost no hassle.
Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.
The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.
