It's more affordable than ever before to take your home media viewing experience to new heights thanks to streaming services, smart TVs, and soundbars. With this increased content availability enriched by new surround sound audio formats, a whole new world of entertainment possibilities comes to light. One of the easiest, most space-efficient ways to drastically improve the quality of your TV (or 4K projector) audio is by upgrading to a soundbar to give you sound as vivid as the 4K video you're probably enjoying. The top soundbars are compact, quick to install, and an unbeatable way to present your movies, music, and video games with elevated volume, clarity, and immersion. And many of them--like our best overall, the Sennheiser AMBEO Plus--sound great on their own but can be expanded with matching subs and satellites if you decide you want a bigger home theater experience down the road. If you're looking for a quick and cost-effective way to upgrade your home theater system, we'll help you find the best soundbars to do the job.

It's not often that you upgrade your TV, but Amazon Prime Day is a good time to consider doing so. Prime members can get steep discounts right now on Fire TVs and sets from other companies like Sony, Samsung and others. And not every sale on Prime day is exclusive to Prime members -- there are some discounts that are available to anyone, so it's worth checking out the televisions on sale during the two-day shopping event. If you're not looking for a brand new TV, there are other home entertainment gadgets on sale too, including streaming devices, soundbars and more. Here are the best TV and home entertainment deals we found for Prime Day 2022.

If you're looking for a way to upgrade your TV setup before the big game without dropping too much money, one of Roku's soundbars could do the trick. Both the Streambar and the Streambar Pro are already competitively priced compared to other soundbars, but now you can get the Streambar Pro at its lowest price yet -- only $150. The smaller Streambar has also been discounted to $100, but it's hovered at that sale price for a few months now. The Streambar Pro is the larger cousin of the standard Streambar, and it adds a few extra features into the mix. First and foremost, it's larger and houses four 2.5-inch full range drivers and supports virtual surround sound.

Roku has been slowly expanding its line of affordable soundbars, most recently with last year's compact, "pretty good" Streambar, and now comes the $180 Streambar Pro, the successor to 2019's Smart Soundbar. While none of Roku's soundbars will appeal to audiophiles, they're perfect for everyday viewers looking to upgrade their TV's tinny audio without breaking the bank, and the 2.0-channel Streambar Pro ups the ante with surprisingly solid sound and a new virtual surround mode. The Streambar Pro's efficient audio performance is already a strong selling point, but the real draw is an integrated Roku streaming player with 4K HDR playback, not to mention Alexa, Google Assistant, HomeKit, and AirPlay 2 support.

A soundbar can be a good addition to your living room if you want to up the audio game of your movie nights. But in addition to being quite expensive, soundbars can be hard to buy if you don't already know exactly what you're looking for. Roku hopes to make the decision easier for most people with its newest audio device, the Roku Streambar. It's a soundbar that's only slightly larger than a carton of eggs and priced competitively at $129 -- oh, and it also has Roku's 4K streaming technology inside of it. The company launched a couple of smart speakers, a subwoofer and a full-sized soundbar last year.

The newest Roku products include a streaming device promising improved video delivery throughout the home, a smaller soundbar that also streams, and an updated mobile app for viewing on the go. The nation's leading streaming platform, Roku said it had about 43 million monthly active accounts at the end of June 2020. Research firm eMarketer estimates Roku captures about 33% of U.S. internet users and 47% of connected TV users. Roku's lineup of devices includes the Roku Express ($29.99) and Roku Streaming Stick ($49.99). But its marquee standalone player – it also markets Roku TVs with built-in streaming capability – is the Roku Ultra ($99.99).
