I Always Recommend This Soundbar, and It's Over 20% Off for Prime Day Today
The Roku Streambar SE is today for $79 -- $21 off the usual price -- during Amazon's July Prime Day sale event. This product is one I recommend even at full price, and this discount makes it an even better buy. I tested Roku's Streambar SE late last year and wrote about my impressions of it, but since it's now routinely getting nice discounts for big holidays and shopping events like Amazon Prime Day, I thought I'd highlight it again. I've tested plenty of Roku's video streamers over the years, but until last year, I hadn't tried out one of its Streambars, which combines a small soundbar with Roku's entry-level 4K HDR streamer. Roku stopped making its top-end Streambar Pro speaker, but it's now selling the Streambar SE, a 2024 mini soundbar that caught my eye because of its low price. When I say mini soundbar, I really do mean mini. About the size of a small Bluetooth speaker, the Streambar SE measures 9.6 inches wide by 3.5 inches deep by 2.4 inches tall and weighs 2 pounds (907 grams). It's designed to be paired with a smaller TV in your bedroom, home office or dorm room, and not your main living room TV (unless you have a tiny living room). I hooked it up to an old 42-inch Vizio I have in my home office, and it's been a solid upgrade over my TV's built-in speakers. Roku Streambar SE specs Here are the details about this compact soundbar. Streaming Resolution: 4K HDR/HDR10+ 4K HDR/HDR10+ Drivers : Two 1.9-inch full-range drivers and a single bass port : Two 1.9-inch full-range drivers and a single bass port Compatibility : Works with any TV with HDMI-ARC or HDMI and optical ports : Works with any TV with HDMI-ARC or HDMI and optical ports Dimensions: 9.6 inches by 3.5 inches by 2.4 inches 9.6 inches by 3.5 inches by 2.4 inches Weight: 2 pounds (907 grams) 2 pounds (907 grams) Included: Standard Roku remote and 2 AAA batteries, power adapter, high-speed HDMI cable, optical cable Standard Roku remote and 2 AAA batteries, power adapter, high-speed HDMI cable, optical cable Wireless headphone support : Bluetooth 5.0 : Bluetooth 5.0 Expandability : Can connect to a Roku Wireless Bass subwoofer for a 2.1 setup : Can connect to a Roku Wireless Bass subwoofer for a 2.1 setup Additional features : Works with Roku Smart Home, Apple AirPlay, HomeKit, Google Home and Amazon Alexa : Works with Roku Smart Home, Apple AirPlay, HomeKit, Google Home and Amazon Alexa Universal remote: Included Roku remote controls most TVs My Roku Streambar SE setup Setup is straightforward: It's basically the same process as connecting any video streamer to your TV, although it helps to have an HDMI-ARC port to simplify things. (Most TVs released in the last 10 to 12 years have one HDMI port that's labeled HDMI ARC or HDMI eARC.) If you don't have ARC, there's a workaround using an HDMI cable and an optical cable, but I didn't have to deal with that. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. The Roku Streambar SE is the size of a compact Bluetooth speaker — and it does have Bluetooth connectivity. David Carnoy/CNET An upgrade over my TV speakers' sound I have Spectrum TV, and Roku has a Spectrum TV app that allows you to turn any Roku streamer into a cable TV box. For my listening test, I spent some time watching a few action movies, including Ant-Man and Nope, along with NFL Redzone, CNN and a bit of a Friends episode. I also used Roku's Apple TV app and Peacock to watch an English Premier League match. Maybe because my expectations were low, I was surprised by the amount of sound this little speaker was able to produce. While the Streambar SE doesn't offer the greatest sound -- it can output only so much bass through its dual 1.9-inch full-range drivers and single bass port -- the speaker produces better audio than you'd think given its very compact size. It's particularly strong in the midrange, producing loud, clear dialogue, and it delivers better sound than what you get from most TV speakers (by that I mean the speakers built into your TV). If you want more bass, you can link the speaker with Roku's Wireless Bass subwoofer, but that separate sub will set you back $130. I can't say that the Streambar SE has the widest soundstage or that you get a whole lot of stereo separation. It doesn't have the side-firing speakers of the step-up Streambar ($130), which earned a CNET Editors' Choice award in 2023, nor can you pair it with Roku's wireless rear speakers to create a surround system. But the quality is good enough to leave you feeling like you got a good deal, particularly if you were already going to shell out $30 or so for Roku's Express 4K Plus or Streaming Stick 4K. Enlarge Image The Roku Streambar is significantly smaller than a full-size soundbar like this Sonos Beam. David Carnoy/CNET As far as sound modes go, you get a few presets to choose from, including Dialogue, Movie, Music, Night and Standard, and the speaker will cut the volume down on loud commercials. The soundbar is also equipped with Bluetooth, so you can connect headphones to it, plus Spotify Connect and Apple AirPlay support.

However, you can download Roku's mobile app for iOS and Android, which does support voice commands. The back of the speaker (bass port on left). David Carnoy/CNET The Streambar SE offers 4K HDR10 and HDR10 Plus video streaming, but it doesn't have support for Dolby Vision. My old Vizio isn't even a 4K TV, so the Streambar SE's video streaming capabilities are more than enough. Why Roku's Streambar SE makes a great gift While Roku's step-up Streambar ($130) certainly delivers better sound quality, the Streambar SE's more compact size and affordable price give it a distinct appeal, particularly for those of us looking to upgrade the sound of a more modest-size TV, perhaps an older model like mine. The Streambar SE isn't fancy, but the price is right for what it does. To compare this with other options, check out our current list of the best soundbars available.

Amazon Deals of the Day: Rock Out With a New Low on Amazon's Fire TV Soundbar Plus Ahead of Prime Day
Amazon sells a wide array of products, with new ones arriving across categories, including home essentials, tech gear and wellness items daily. As much as the retail giant loves adding new products, Amazon also loves cutting prices. But deciding which deals are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job -- our job, specifically. That's why we scope out the top deals for you. Today, we spotted the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar Plus down to a record-low price ahead of the upcoming Prime Day sale event. We also found record lows on the Bluetti Solar Generator AC300 and one of our favorite open earbuds. A great TV makes a huge difference in your home entertainment space but a great soundbar to go with it takes your experience to a new level. A nice option, especially if you have a Fire TV, is the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar Plus. It comes with a built-in subwoofer to help you get that crisp base. It also has a 3.1-channel audio with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, which gives you a 3D audio experience with pretty high sound quality. When you plug in the subwoofer, it'll automatically connect to the soundbar so there's no extra set up steps. It also features different modes like Movie, Music, Sports and Night to cater your audio experience as best as possible depending on what you're watching. It normally goes for $249 but Amazon has dropped it to a new low price today of $175. That's a $75 savings just ahead of Prime Day sales. If you're going on any camping trips or live in an area with spotty electricity, a portable power station is a must. One great option is the Bluetti Solar Generator AC300. It has a powerful 300W AC input, along with a 3,000W AC+ solar input. It charges pretty quickly too, getting up to 80% in just 45 minutes. It's made with aluminum protective casing, a cooling fan and an internal wireless design so it's super sturdy and safe. It also comes with a B300K expansion battery to prolong the lifespan of the power station even more. This power station has 16 ports, enough for all your devices and more. One cool feature is aside from the AC outlets, wireless charging pad, USB-A and C ports and car ports, it also comes with a NEMA TT-30 and a 30A RV port. This is to cover your needs in an RV trip. The Bluetti Solar Generator AC300 with expansion battery is normally a whopping $2,499 but it's now down to a record low of $1,399 which saves you a sizeable $1,100. A solid alternative to more traditional earbuds with silicone ear tips are open ear clip-on earbuds. One of our favorite affordable options is the Baseus Bowie MC1 Pro open ear clip-on earbuds. And now they just got even cheaper. We love them because they have a comfortable and secure fit, great for all-day wear. The battery life is pretty good, too, with up to 9 hours when you listen at moderate volume levels. It has decent sound as well, especially for the price. They have a physical control button on each bud for controlling playback and adjusting volume levels so you don't have to dig for your phone if you need to adjust something. They also come with an IP57 certification, which means the buds are splash-proof and dust-proof, perfect for your summer adventures. These earbuds are usually $90. But when you clip the on-page coupon, you can get them for $70, back to a record low. With so many deals on Amazon, deciding which ones are worth your money can be difficult. But CNET's combed through what the world's largest online retailer has to offer and gathered the best deals for you to peruse.

Save $200 on Amazon's 'best yet' Fire TV and matching soundbar
Getting a TV can actually be a stressor if you're not the type that likes to tinker with things. Since the vast majority of TVs today don't produce great sound, you'll have to go through the hassle of choosing a soundbar. But that's not all! You also have to connect your soundbar to your TV, which isn't always trivial. That's why we like this deal that saves you $200 on a QLED TV and gives you a matching soundbar that you know will work with it and be easy to assemble. Normally the 50-inch Amazon Fire TV Omni and Fire TV Soundbar bundle would cost $600, but right now you can get it for an impressively affordable $400. Tap the button below to see the deal. Then, keep reading below to get our take on this bundle's components. Why you should buy the 50-inch Amazon Fire TV and soundbar bundle The primary ingredient of the bundle is naturally the TV, and it's a pretty great place to start, considering we named it one of the best Amazon Fire TV devices in its own right. When we did our Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED review, we said that it was the 'best Fire TV experience yet.' One reason for this was its hyper-convenient voice assistant feature, while another was its ability to be a smart home hub, quickly connecting to Ring devices and other Amazon-affiliated smart home wares. It has a fantastic screen too, with a solid 4K resolution and HDR 10. This is an approachable TV that anybody can love. And then there's the soundbar. Our Amazon Fire TV Soundbar review said two things about it that anybody interested in this bundle need to consider. Firstly, 'It doesn't get much simpler than the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar.' If you're intimidated or just can't be bothered to get into the weeds of proper wiring, sound balancing, and the other trappings of advanced home theater creations, this should be music to your ears. This is plug-and-play, that's it. Secondly, our reviewer said that the bar is 'surprisingly immersive' due to its deeper-than-expected bass and emphasis on frequencies with the human voice spectrum, making dialogue sound great. When combined together, this makes a killer kit at $600. This deal nets you $200 off, making the bundle just $400. It's a steal for anyone wanting a great experience with almost no hassle.

Kogan.com is giving away a Ford Raptor or $100,000 for $1. But is there a catch?
These items are hand-picked to make your shopping experience easier. ACM may be provided with compensation from affiliate partners if you click through. You can't buy a lot for a dollar these days. Maybe a banana, or half a lukewarm servo coffee. But, what if you could get more bang for your buck? In a rather chaotic and ingenious move, retailer has launched a new promotion this end of financial year that gives its members the chance to win a Ford Raptor or $100,000 in cash for as little as a gold dollar coin. The entry requirement? A Kogan FIRST membership, which currently starts at an entry-level $1 tier for new users, with the major prize being drawn on July 2, 2025, and entries closing at 11:59pm AEST on July 1. In addition to the grand prize, Kogan is regularly giving away heaps of small prizes including home theatre systems (85" Kogan TV, Soundbar, Wall Mount), gold bullion, credit and much more, with all draws scheduled across a 12-month campaign window through to July 2025. To be eligible, users must sign up for any tier of Kogan FIRST membership before the July 1 deadline. Memberships are currently available at four price points including $1, $9, $49, and $99. For a limited time, Australians can sign up for any of these Kogan FIRST membership tiers and receive bonus entries into the prize pool. For instance, new sign-ups before June 3 receive 10x bonus entries. This multiplier decreases each week as the draw approaches, ending with a standard entry for those who join in the final 48 hours. Kogan FIRST is Kogan's membership program. Members receive free shipping on eligible items, discounted prices on selected products, exclusive access to member-only deals, the ability to earn double Qantas Points on purchases, and automatic entry into these prize draws throughout the membership period. Once joined, Aussies remain eligible for all draws through to July 1, 2025, as long as their membership is still active. To date, FIRST members have already won over $3 million in cash, cars and prizes. The idea is that the longer you're a member, the better chance you have at winning a prize! Kogan's latest campaign is a clear attempt to grow its membership by offering a high-value incentive at a very low entry point. The offering is legitimate, clearly structured, and open to all new and existing Kogan FIRST members. Whether it's worth it will depend on your appetite for giveaways and interest in platform. But if you're already a customer - or simply curious - it's one of the more straightforward sweepstakes currently running in Australia. Plus, it's not bad for just a dollar.
