Sometimes, a set of TV speakers is enough to carry you through your favorite movies, shows, and YouTube deep dives. But if you’re the kind of person who gives a dang about sound quality, proper stereo imaging, and overall volume, at a minimum you should have a soundbar. Fortunately, just about every audio brand makes these plug-and-play home theater gadgets, and right now, JBL is offering a solid markdown on one of its entry-level models:
For a limited time, the JBL Cinema SB170 2.1ch Soundbar is on sale for $170. The full MSRP on this model is $250. It’s one of the best soundbar deals of the week thus far, but don’t wait too long to take advantage of this sale!
Dishing out up to 220 watts, the JBL Cinema SB170 is the set of speakers your TV wished it had, not to mention the wireless subwoofer for the kind of low-end only a sub can produce. The SB170 delivers a warm and excited default sound, and getting it up and running is as simple as plugging the bar into your TV’s HDMI ARC or digital optical port.
Thanks to the dedicated Bluetooth input, you’ll also be able to stream music wirelessly from a phone or tablet to the JBL SB170. There’s even a built-in Voice preset that adds a bit of extra top-end and focus on dialogue and vocals, ensuring you don’t miss a crucial line or a killer lyric. This model also comes with everything you’ll need to mount it on the wall, should you decide to go that route.

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.
