Your TV speakers aren’t cutting it anymore! Brands like Samsung, Sony, and LG spend more time on picture quality than whatever 10-watt or 15-watt audio system gets placed in an LED, QLED, or OLED set. Fortunately, these same brands (and many others) also produce great soundbars. As a matter of fact, earlier today, we came across this fantastic JBL offer while vetting through soundbar deals:
For a limited time, when you purchase the JBL 5.1ch Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer at Best Buy, you’ll only wind up paying $260. The full MSRP on this model is $340.
Delivering up to 300 watts of pure power, the JBL 5.1ch Soundbar contains five full-range drivers, two tweeters, and a wireless sub. While you won’t get “true” surround sound from this system, JBL’s Smart Mode does a nice job at virtualizing a multi-speaker setup, especially once those side-firing drivers kick in! There’s even an audio correction tool for optimizing the soundbar’s performance to best match your room acoustics.
The JBL soundbar is equipped with HDMI ARC and digital optical for audio outputs, along with an Ethernet port for all your music-streaming needs. Thanks to its Bluetooth and Wi-Fi inputs, wirelessly playing music on this JBL soundbar is as easy as it gets, and native support for AirPlay 2 and Chromecast gives you plenty of intuitive ways to cast media from A to B.
It’s hard to say how long this sale is going to last, but if you’re interested in saving a good chunk of change on a solid soundbar, we wouldn’t dawdle. Take $80 off the JBL 5.1ch Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer when you purchase today.

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.
