Sony’s latest HT-A3000 3.1-Ch. Dolby Atmos Soundbar sees 29% drop to new low of $498

Amazon is now offering the latest Sony HT-A3000 3.1-Channel Dolby Atmos Soundbar for $498 shipped. Launching back at the end of August for $700, this solid 29% price drop, or $202 price drop, marks a new all-time low price while being the second drop to date. Arriving with a built-in Chromecast and AirPlay 2 support, the all-new HT-A3000 soundbar uses three front speakers and a dual subwoofer to provide clear dialogue while also having that punchy bass. Dolby Atmos support is achieved by this soundbar using Sony’s Vertical Sound Engine and S-Force PRO technology to create virtual height channels and “wrapping” audio around your room for virtual surround sound. Users with Sony BRAVIA TVs will have the advantage of an integrated UI on the TV for sound controls. Check out our launch coverage to learn more and keep reading below.

While this soundbar can simulate a surround sound setup, there is no substitute for the real thing. Here you can take your savings from the soundbar and build up some more cash to grab the Sony SA-RS3S Wireless Rear Speakers for $298. These speakers will pair wirelessly with the HT-A3000 soundbar to provide actual rear channel audio to further enhance your movie-watching experience. Both speakers here use 100W of power to enhance sound and can be wall mounted for a cleaner look.

Our top pick from the sale has to be on Samsung’s latest lineup of Frame smart TVs with the 55-inch version sitting down at $998. Fittingly for its name, that allows you to hang the 4K HDR QLED panels with 120Hz refresh rates up on the wall, while also taking advantage of the new Matte Display anti-glare screen so content looks great in any room.
