For anyone building a premium home theater around a large TV, the Sony Bravia Theater Trio is down to $1,498 from $2,199.99, saving you $701.99, or roughly 32%. Unlike a conventional soundbar, the Trio uses three separate front speakers for the left, center, and right channels, helping spread dialogue and effects across a wider soundstage. You can read PCMag’s “excellent” review for more details.The Sony Bravia Theater Bar 7 is down to $718 from $869 for anyone who wants a single soundbar under the TV. Its nine speakers include upward- and side-firing drivers that widen the soundstage and give Dolby Atmos some height, but there’s no subwoofer, so the now $898 Bar 7 with a wireless sub bundle (down from $1,099.99) might be the better pick for deeper bass.Moving down Sony’s lineup, the Bravia Theater Bar 6 is $548, down from $699.99, and pairs a 3.1.2-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer and upward-firing speakers for Dolby Atmos height effects. Spending $100 more gets you the Bravia Theater System 6, now $648 from $799.99, which adds rear speakers in a 5.1-channel setup for movies and games where sound moves behind you.For a more affordable upgrade, the Sony Bravia Theater Bar 5 is down to $278 from $349.99, saving you nearly $72. It’s a 3.1-channel system with a dedicated center speaker and wireless subwoofer, so dialogue should come through more clearly while music and movie effects get some additional low-end presence.Sony’s older systems are discounted too, including the HT-S400 at $258, down from $299, which pairs a 2.1-channel soundbar and wireless subwoofer with S-Force Pro Front Surround to widen the sound for everyday TV, sports, and casual movies. The HT-S40R is arguably the better deal at the same $258, down from $329.99, since it adds two rear speakers for a full 5.1-channel setup, though neither model supports Dolby Atmos.These Bose soundbars are up to 22% off

Samsung’s HW-Q800H is down to $697.99 from $1,097.99, a $400 cut on a 5.1.2-channel Dolby Atmos soundbar with a wireless subwoofer. Its side- and upward-firing speakers help place effects around and above you, while a dedicated center channel keeps dialogue clear during busy action scenes.For something that takes up less space, the Samsung HW-S60D is $277.99, down from $399.99, and fits seven speakers, including side-firing drivers, into a compact 5.0-channel soundbar. It also supports Dolby Atmos, Adaptive Sound, and a voice enhancement mode, along with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AirPlay, and Chromecast for music streaming. That said, it has no upward-firing speakers or subwoofer, so its height effects and bass won’t match that of the Q800H.These LG audio systems are up to 38% off

If you’re looking for a complete surround sound system without spending several hundred dollars, the LG S6FTR is down to $249.99 from $399.99, saving you $150, or roughly 38%. It’s a 5.1-channel home theater package with a soundbar, subwoofer, and dedicated rear speakers. That makes it particularly appealing for action movies and games, where directional sound adds to the experience.The LG S40TR is another affordable option for anyone who wants rear speakers included in the box. It’s currently $199.99, down from $279.99, and offers a 4.1-channel arrangement with a wireless subwoofer and two rear speakers. This should give movie soundtracks a greater sense of direction than a basic soundbar, while the subwoofer handles the lower frequencies that smaller TV speakers often struggle to reproduce.At just under $187, the S60T is the least expensive system in this roundup, pairing a 3.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer for clearer dialogue and fuller sound than your TV’s speakers. That said, it lacks rear speakers and Dolby Atmos height channels, so it’s better suited to someone who wants a simple, affordable upgrade without filling the room with additional hardware.Black Friday FAQsAre Black Friday deals worth it?In short, yes, Black Friday still offers discounts that can be rare throughout the rest of the year. If there’s something you want to buy, or you’re shopping for gifts, it’s a good time to look for discounts on what you need, especially tech sales, home improvement supplies, and fitness tech. Of course, if you need to save money, the best way to save is not to buy anything. How do I make the most of Black Friday? Follow our Black Friday coverage for the latest and best deals our team finds. Another good tip is to only buy what you need. It sounds simple, but making a list of the things you want before jumping into a sale with millions of products helps you focus and make smarter decisions.Are Cyber Monday deals better than Black Friday?Black Friday used to be bigger for major retailers and more expensive tech and appliances, while Cyber Monday was better for cheaper tech and gave smaller businesses a chance to compete online. Nowadays, though, the distinction is almost meaningless. Every major retailer will offer sales on both days, and the smart move is to know what you want, do your research, or refer to guides like our Black Friday and Cyber Monday coverage that have done all the vetting for you.
