Looking for the best soundbar deal to give your TV a big audio upgrade? The T3 Award-winning Sonos Beam was already the lower-price bar to buy, and this offer at Amazon UK makes is just about the cheapest it's ever been! (It was once £5 cheaper than this, but we can live with that.)

• Buy the Sonos Beam soundbar for £320 (save £79) at Amazon UK
• Buy the JBL Bar Studio with Bluetooth for £69.99 (save £80) at BT Shop
• Buy the Philips PB603/10 Dolby Atmos Soundbar for £209.99 (save £89) at Amazon UK

The Sonos Beam is one of the best soundbars on the planet, and is easily the best buy in this price range. The price above is a big drop from its £399 RRP, and while it can be found for more like £350, it rarely gets this kind of extra price drop.

In our five-star Sonos Beam review, we said the soundbar was "worth the price even if it was just a soundbar, Sonos Beam adds so many useful additional features that it becomes almost a no-brainer to at least consider a purchase. One day, all wireless home cinema speakers will be this versatile, this good…"

Those extra features include multi-room support as part of a Sonos system (or with Apple AirPlay 2), the ability to add other Sonos units as rear speakers for a true surround setup (oh, hey, the Sonos One SL is discounted too, whaddya know!), and the inclusion of Alexa and Google Assistant for voice control.

Plus, it sounds fantastic, of course. We said: "It delivers a BIG, adrenaline-pumping boost to the audio, with good separation of dialogue and music/effects. Given its compact dimensions, it's not surprising that the bass doesn’t descend low enough to rattle the room, but it has real power. The sound stage is really, surprisingly wide, too."

This isn't the only juicy soundbar on offer right now, though! If you want something that's as cheap as it gets while still being from a great brand with worth features, this JBL soundbar deal is perfect:

Or if you want something that gives you incredible bang for buck, this Philips soundbar deal is great:

Philips PB603/10 Dolby Atmos Soundbar | Was £299 | Now just £209.99 at Amazon UK
This soundbar gives you three drivers in the main bar, with a wireless subwoofer delivering bass impact – it's the perfect simple and low-price way to add depth to a budget TV. It works with Dolby Atmos movies and TV shows to add extra spatial positioning to sounds, though don't expect it replicate what the likes of the Sonos Arc can do. It should make the stereo separation and movement of sounds more effective than ever, though. It also has Bluetooth for streaming, and connects over HDMI.
