The Streambar: Best Soundbars for the Price of a Large TV, But Not as Large as a Roku Stick (or Stick+)

Need more sound for your TV, but not as much space? The Streambar has true stereo sound, and it’s cute. It also has a Roku streaming player built in, so you can get one device to have both better sound and better control over your streaming. You’re welcome. You can get more recommendations from our Best Soundbars guide.

We love the interface of Roku’s streaming interface so we’ll add it to our TV with any of their streaming sticks. The Stick+) is on sale at a slightly cheaper price. We see this price often, but it’s still a good price to get a 4K Roku stick. Check out our guide for other options.

The HW-Q990B is the best home theater sound system that we have found. It has a whopping 15 drivers, excellent audio processing, and the ability to bounce tones around your room. You don’t need to connect the surround speakers and subwoofer to anything else than an outlet if it has wireless Dolby Atmos, which it does. It’s a pricey system, but a little easier on the wallet right now.

This system comes with five small speakers and a compact under-couch subwoofer, but is still super easy to use. You can stream andsync audio from a puck you connect to your TV screen or projector with the assistance of the Platin Audio 5.1. You don’t have to connect to each other to get a power source for the speakers. It’s wildly simple and well priced, even before this weekend’s sale.

A Portable Portable Projector for Nighttimes with Vizio and the Walmart / M-Series X Brand Newcomer Ware

Vizio’s TVs are great, and we like that the M-Series Quantum X (8/10, WIRED Recommends) has a better arrangement of legs than other similarly priced TVs. It’s worth noting that this past week, Walmart announced it is acquiring Vizio, so there could be some changes coming to the Vizio lineup soon.

This projector is great for both indoor and outdoor movie nights since it’s fully portable–you’ll just need to make sure the Wi-Fi is available in your backyard. It has a built-in speaker, a smart TV interface, and a cute little remote. It’s easy to set up and focus, thanks to the slider on the top of the projector, which allows it to project a 120 inch screen at 450 lumens, and so nighttime watching only. It’s not the first time we’ve since this sale price, but it’s still a solid deal.
