If you’re looking to upgrade your TV’s sound and maybe want to really ramp things up with Dolby Atmos surround sound, then Black Friday is a perfect opportunity to find soundbar discounts, like the JBL Bar 1000 MK2 for $899 (was $1,199) at Best Buy.
• Shop Best Buy’s full Black Friday sale
That’s a 29% discount on an impressive 7.1.4-channel Dolby Atmos soundbar system, and also one of the best Black Friday deals I’ve seen for the soundbar category.
High-end soundbars like the Bar 1000 MK2 can sometimes cost more than you paid for your TV, but Best Buy’s deal on JBL’s bar makes its cost easier to swallow.
Today's best JBL Bar 1000 MK2 Black Friday deal
Save 25%JBL BAR 1000 MK2: was US$1,199.99 now US$899.99 at Best BuyJBL's Bar 1000 MK2 is getting a huge 25% discount in Best Buy's Black Friday sale. The Bar 1000 MK2 is a 7.1.4-channel Dolby Atmos soundbar system with completely wireless, detachable rear speakers that dock with the soundbar to recharge. In our JBL Bar 1000 MK2 review, we noted how this system did a "great job of putting you in the middle of the action." JBL's soundbar is on the pricey side, but this $300 discount in Best Buy's Black Friday deal makes it considerably more affordable.
View DealThe Bar 1000 MK2 rivals the best Dolby Atmos soundbar systems like the Samsung HW-Q900F in its ability to put you right in the middle of the action – something we noted in our JBL Bar 1000MK2 review.
Like the Samsung, the Bar 1000 MK2 features 7.1.4 channels and features completely wireless, detachable rear speakers that dock with the main soundbar to recharge. A 15-inch-tall subwoofer delivers powerful bass, and a trio of HDMI inputs with 4K/HDR passthrough let you connect a range of other components.
The JBL Bar 1000 MK2 is actually priced in the same range as other premium soundbars, such as the Sonos Arc Ultra, but unlike that model, it comes with wireless surround sound speakers and a subwoofer. You’d have to pay considerably more money to add those components to the Sonos, while the JBL arrives with everything you need for a complete Dolby Atmos home theater sound system.

Save 30% (US$150)Sonos Beam (Gen 2): was US$499 now US$349 at AmazonThe Sonos Beam (Gen 2) has crashed to a new record-low price with this deal, dropping to $349. I love this compact soundbar, which delivers room-filling power, impressive bass, and real attention to detail. It's also a perfect speaker for streaming music over Wi-Fi and can be paired with other Sonos speakers and subwoofers for a full surround sound system.

Save 27% (US$150)Bose Smart Soundbar: was US$549.99 now US$399.99 at Best BuyI got hands-on with the compact Bose Smart Soundbar earlier in the year, and it's a pretty impressive model. Its up-firing speakers create convincing Dolby Atmos effects, and you'll get generally clear sound that's awesome for movies and music alike. There's even a Personal Surround Sound feature that lets you pair the bar with Bose's Ultra Open Earbuds for surround sound without the extra speakers. We haven't seen many discounts on this model before, so take advantage now to secure $150 off!

Save 26% (US$198.04)Samsung HW-Q800F: was US$747.99 now US$549.95 at AmazonThis deal is categorically one of the best I've seen for Black Friday. Although the Samsung HW-Q800F's typical cost is listed at around $750, it actually launched at $1,099, meaning you're getting it for around half price here. This model is the best soundbar and sub combo I've tested here at TechRadar. It plates up rumbling bass, impeccable dialogue clarity, and phenomenal Atmos effects. For less than $550, you really couldn't ask for much more.
