      Your TV's built-in speakers have their limitations. Even the top-tier premium TVs like the LG G4 and Samsung S95D produce sound that is somewhat lacking, which is why soundbars have gained popularity. Some of these audio devices can be as expensive as a new QLED or OLED, though there are also more affordable options available.

      One such soundbar is the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar, a 2.0 system we evaluated in November 2023. Our AV expert, Simon Cohen, was not expecting much from it but was pleasantly surprised.

      Reasons to purchase the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar

      Let’s clarify right away: The Amazon Fire TV Soundbar is not a Fire TV OS product (this is explicitly stated on the Amazon product page), so don't expect it to offer access to streaming apps or smart TV functions. However, it does enhance the audio experience significantly beyond what your TV speakers can provide. This two-channel Fire TV Soundbar delivers remarkable midrange and treble clarity, along with a respectable amount of bass for a budget-friendly soundbar.

      With support for Dolby Audio and DTS Virtual:X, the Fire TV Soundbar downmixes surround sound formats for a virtual experience. While it doesn’t replicate a true surround sound system, it still offers decent immersion from floor to ceiling.

      The Fire TV Soundbar includes a dedicated Bluetooth input for streaming music and podcasts wirelessly from your phone or tablet and is designed to be compatible with select Fire TV OS televisions.

      You can save $30 when you purchase the Amazon Fire TV Soundbar at this moment, and be sure to check our listings of the best soundbar deals, best Amazon deals, and best TV deals for additional home theater discounts!
