As part of its Black Friday savings, Amazon is now offering the JBL Bar 500 5.1-Channel soundbar for $349.95 shipped. Falling from its $600 full price tag, we’ve been seeing it spend long periods of 2024 between $450 and $400 or else sitting at its MSRP, with occasional dips lower to $380 here and there, which we first saw during last year’s Thanksgiving season. These rates are all being eclipsed by this year’s Black Friday savings as its getting a 42% markdown here from its full rate, saving you $250 while upgrading your audio setup at the lowest price we have tracked to date.
Home theatre upgrades don’t have to be overly expensive, bank-breaking investments when you have deals on gear like this 5.1-channel soundbar, which comes bolstered by Dolby Atmos and MultiBeam surround sound. It also delivers built-in Wi-Fi with AirPlay 2, Alexa Multi-Room Music, and Chromecast to give you access to 300 online streaming services – plus, it automatically updates itself to stay at the peak of its performance capabilities thanks to the Wi-Fi support. The PureVoice dialogue enhancement tech takes advantage of JBL’s unique algorithm to optimize voice clarity in order to ensure you hear every uttered word of dialogue, while you’ll enjoy blood-pumping bass from the included 10-inch wireless subwoofer that expands immersion to theatre-quality levels.
