Not every viewing situation calls for an expensive sound system that can make your home sound like a mini theater. Maybe you’re just looking to equip a guest room with an easy audio upgrade, or perhaps you just need to amplify the dialog and sound effects of your favorite movies and shows. Most simple soundbars will do the trick much better than the relatively small speakers inside most TVs.

Something like the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar is an interesting option, especially when you can get it for just $64.99 at Woot, which is the price of a new open-box model that’ll only be available through the end of today. That’s $55 off compared to its base price and $35 cheaper than Amazon’s current price. It also comes with Woot’s 90-day limited warranty, making it easily the best deal we’ve seen so far.

The two-channel Fire TV Soundbar doesn’t earn points on the strength of its audio prowess. If you’re looking for a Dolby Atmos or system that can blow your roof off and immerse you in precise surround sound, this ain’t it. However, it’ll do if all you need is satisfying loudness and a bit of extra bass. (And you do get DTS Virtual:X, even if the limiting hardware might not make the most of it.)

The Fire TV Soundbar has HDMI eARC and can also accept audio directly from your smartphone, tablet, or other devices via Bluetooth, which makes it great as a music player for some afternoon cleaning. It’s more compact than the more substantial models, too, which makes it easier to fit in smaller entertainment setups. If you have a Fire TV, you can control it and the soundbar using the same remote, which is a nice convenience if you’re decidedly on team Amazon for your home theater needs.

  • If you need a solid gaming headset that can work with PlayStation 4 and PS5, the Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile, you should look into the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max, which is down to $129.99 ($50 off) in cobalt blue at Best Buy. That’s the lowest price we’ve seen on the PlayStation-specific version of the wireless headset, which lasts up to 40 hours per charge and supports both 2.4GHz low-latency wireless (via a USB dongle for PlayStation and Switch) and Bluetooth. The integrated microphone automatically mutes whenever you flip it upward into its hiding spot, and its 50mm drivers are specially tuned for the PS5’s 3D Audio engine.
  • The Samsung Galaxy Buds FE are a decent-sounding pair of earbuds with active noise cancellation, and they’re down to $69.99 ($30 off) at Best Buy, matching the all-time low. They’re on the lower end of Samsung’s lineup. To get them so low compared to its flagship pair, the company sacrificed a couple of nice-to-haves like wireless charging and Bluetooth multipoint. But it did bring back the wing fin design that many people feel offers a more comfortable in-ear fit. Battery life can get up to six hours with ANC on and up to 8.5 hours otherwise, and the case adds about three to four extra charges. Read our review.
  • Modern coffee makers prioritize convenience over more ritualistic coffee making techniques. If you miss the hands-on approach, try out the AeroPress “Original” coffee maker. It’s a favorite coffee gadget among Verge staffers and is down to $31.95 ($8 off) at Amazon. It features French press, pour-over, and espresso brewing options in a compact travel-ready kit that’s easy to clean and use and only requires hot water to function. If you’re planning summer travels, it can be a lot more fun than cleaning and running the hotel coffee maker three times to ensure some other stranger’s old grind doesn’t seep into your morning drip.
