Keen to avoid the madness of Black Friday by taking home a bargain ahead of time? You’re in luck — Vizio has discounted its entire soundbar collection, including its flagship Vizio 5.1.4 Home Theater Sound System, which is in the discount bin with $300 off, through Saturday, November 23.
Instead of running through all the soundbars on offer, we thought we’d make the shopping experience a little less daunting by handing over the entire list, before diving into our picks for the best choice for convenience viewers, those looking to spice up their home entertainment setup, and movie buffs.
So, here’s the entire list of Vizio soundbars on sale from November 21 until November 23:
Convenience viewers wanting to add a bit of oomph to their viewing experience ought to look no further than this fantastic deal on Vizio’s 2.1-Channel Soundbar System that sees the Bluetooth-enabled soundbar-and-wireless-subwoofer-combo on sale for $100, down from the usual $180.
Capable of being mounted to a wall or rested on a console table, the soundbar itself can be configured to be the lone output method, or to assist an existing home theater setup or a television’s built in-speakers, while calling upon the bundled wireless subwoofer to add some rumble to the mix.
Aimed at customers looking to take their entertainment setup to the next level without having to take out a second mortgage, Vizio’s 5.1.2-Channel Soundbar System is armed with a multidirectional soundbar (frontward- and upward-firing), two rear speakers, and a six-inch wireless subwoofer.
Throw that all together and the result is a setup that moves sound around the room, from ceiling to floor and wall to wall, to immerse viewers from all angles — bolstered by Dolby Atmos. The soundbar also has a Chromecast baked in for one-click streaming through the likes of Pandora and Spotify.
If you’re after the best Vizio has to offer, then look no further than its 5.1.4-Channel Soundbar System, which comprises of a multidirectional soundbar (frontward- and upward-firing), two standalone satellite monitors (also frontward- and upward-firing), and a massive ten-inch wireless subwoofer.
Combined, this produces a similar effect to the aforementioned Vizio 5.1.2-Channel Soundbar System — though instead of moving sound around the room in a composed manner, this flagship model hurls it at you from all angles, dragging you into the action that’s unfolding in front of your eyes.
Of course, it too supports Dolby Atmos and has a Chromecast built-in for convenient access to all the leading on-demand and live music-streaming services, including iHeartRadio and Spotify. It can even be hooked up to other Vizio SmartCast hardware to create a Sonos-like multi-room network.

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.
