If you’re tired of your old TV’s lackluster audio and lack of smart TV features, today’s the day you’ll be able to kill two birds with one stone. The Roku Streambar SE is on sale at Walmart for only $80, which is a $20 markdown from its $100 retail. 

The Roku Streambar SE is a solid upgrade for TV sound, especially for smaller spaces, and the system’s built-in Roku streamer gives you access to hundreds of apps, games, and Roku TV exclusives. Just connect to your TV via HDMI ARC and all component audio (meaning whatever is plugged into your TV) will route audio through the new soundbar. 

Ideal for smaller to mid-sized TVs, the Streambar SE delivers crisp-clear vocals and dialogue, so you’ll never miss vital plot points. You’ll also be able to switch between Movie, Music, and other presets for further fine-tuning. 

The Streambar SE must be connected to Wi-Fi in order to access apps and other web features, but the soundbar has a Bluetooth input, too. As a matter of fact, you’ll even be able to pair a set of Bluetooth headphones or earbuds to the Streambar SE for private listening!

The Streambar’s built-in bass port does a nice job at spotlighting low end performance, but those looking for deep bass will want to pick up a Roku Wireless Bass down the line, or invest in a soundbar that comes with a wireless sub. 

Save $20 on the Roku Streambar SE when you purchase right now. We also suggest taking a gander at our lists of the best TV deals, best soundbar deals, and best Walmart deals.

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.

Instagram brings Reels and more to Apple TV

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.
