$220 off/$380

Early Black Friday sales are launching left and right, with Amazon now offering the JBL Bar 500: 5.1-Channel soundbar for $379.95 shipped. Down from its $600 price tag, this soundbar has only seen five discounts over the year, each of them occurring every few months. Today’s deal is a 37% markdown off the going rate, coming in $19 under the current used pricing and landing as a new all-time low. It even beats out our previous mention by $20 and matches JBL’s website as well.

Bolstered by Dolby Atmos and MultiBeam surround sound, this 5.1-channel soundbar also features built-in Wi-Fi with Airplay, Alexa Multi-Room Music, and Chromecast to give you access to 300 online streaming services – plus, the Wi-Fi support allows the sound bar to automatically update itself. Its PureVoice dialogue enhancement technology utilizes JBL’s unique algorithm to optimize voice clarity in order to ensure you never miss a word of dialogue, even when the surround effects are at their peak. It also includes a 10-inch wireless subwoofer for that mighty blood-pumping bass that takes you even deeper into theater-quality immersion. Head below to read more.
