Amazon Fire TV Soundbar Plus With Built-In Subwoofer Hits All-Time Low, It Might As Well Be a Gift
Movie night feels flat when dialogue whispers and explosions land with a polite thud. The Amazon Fire TV Soundbar Plus, the newest model in the lineup, takes the thin audio that leaks from a television and trades it for room‑filling sound you can feel in the couch cushions. Slide the sleek bar under almost any screen, connect a single cable, and suddenly Friday's superhero premiere or Sunday football chatter arrives with theater‑style punch. Head over to Amazon to get the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar Plus for just $180, down from its usual price of $250. That's a discount of $70 and 28% off. See at Amazon Setup could not be easier. Plug the HDMI eARC cable into the back of the TV, power the bar with the included adapter, and the Fire TV interface detects it in seconds. If your television includes Alexa, you can say, 'Alexa, pair my soundbar,' and watch the connection finish itself while you unwrap popcorn. The same Alexa voice control lets you adjust volume, check weather, or dim smart lights without lifting the remote later on. Inside, a six‑driver array spreads sound across the room, while Dolby Atmos processing lifts effects above and beside the seating area. Helicopters seem to hover overhead, crowd noise rolls in from the sidelines, and dialogue gains clarity even at lower volumes. A dedicated center channel handles speech, so you can stop riding the remote during quiet conversations followed by sudden action. Bass ports on each end of the cabinet add low‑end thump without needing a separate sub, handy for apartments where space and neighbor patience both run short. The compact chassis measures under two and a half inches tall, sliding under most TV stands without blocking the screen. If wall mounting fits your setup, two keyhole slots on the back make hanging simple with a pair of screws. A brushed charcoal finish resists fingerprints, and a thin LED strip lights up briefly for status updates before fading back to black, so the bar stays invisible during dark scenes. Connectivity goes beyond HDMI. Bluetooth 5.3 streams playlists from phones or tablets, turning the living room into a quick dance floor. An optical input waits for older sets, and a USB port provides service updates down the road. The included remote doubles as a Fire TV controller, trimming device clutter on the coffee table. The Amazon Fire TV Soundbar Plus is still available for $180 at Amazon, a straightforward way to give any television a serious audio upgrade compared with its regular $250 price. See at Amazon
