Prime Day is officially underway, which means there are deals galore all over the floor. JBL Prime Day deals are some of the most popular speaker offers we’ve seen in a long time. Everything from Bluetooth speakers to wireless earbuds are on sale, but one of the best offers we’ve seen is actually on a soundbar: For a limited time, you can purchase the JBL Bar 5.1 Surround for only $330. For those unaware, you’d usually be spending around $600 to take this bad boy home. That’s a $250 discount!

One of the main reasons people buy soundbars is to enhance overall TV sound. With TV speakers being so small, it’s hard to get big, rich sound from such tiny drivers. The JBL Bar 5.1 gets to work solving that problem right away. This 550W soundbar/sub combo is designed to fill your every listening space with powerful, detailed sound. 

As far as connections, you should have no issue wiring this bad boy up to any modern TV. Inputs include HDMI, digital optical, and even Bluetooth for streaming your favorite Spotify playlists through the JBL Bar. Not only will you be able to connect source components directly to the soundbar via HDMI, but you’ll also have the ability to cast audio and video using Chromecast and AirPlay 2!

Measuring 40 inches wide, 2.2 inches tall, and 3.94 inches from front to back, the JBL Bar is designed to fit underneath most TVs with ease. As for mounting the soundbar (if your TV is wall mounted), we recommend investing in a shelf-attachment for your TV wall mount that the JBL Bar can nestle within. 

Soundbar deals are everywhere we look and we have Prime Day to thank! While the getting is still good, save $250 on the JBL Bar 5.1 Surround when you purchase the soundbar directly through JBL. And do be sure to check out our other Prime Day soundbar deals before you head out!

I desperately want a new classic Walkman, but Sony probably can’t give me one

All of this makes it the perfect time for Sony to bring back the classic Walkman, which was a phenomenon during the 80s and 90s. I would love one. Give me a compact cassette player, physical buttons, and wired headphones. Keep the apps, notifications, and algorithms that shape your taste of music. No more AI assistants or personalzied feeds, just you and your Walkman. There is only one problem though. Recreating the Walkman that people love and remember, would be far harder than putting an old design back into production.

The worrying part is that escaping this tracking is becoming increasingly difficult because many privacy controls are buried deep in settings or enabled by default.
