Beam Me Up, Scottie. Sonos’ Budget Soundbar and Sub Are On Sale

Nothing pairs so well with a sub as a nice soundbar. Well, maybe chips and a soda.

You’ve got the big-screen-sportin’, Dolby Atmos-havin’ 4K TV, but what’s the point of spending all that dough if you’re going to play all those shows and movies through its crappy speakers? And believe me, its speakers are crappy, no matter how nice the TV.

Sonos Beam (Gen 2), the latest version of the Beam soundbar, on sale for $369 and down from its normal street price of $499. Not a bad discount at all, especially when you consider that the Sonos Sub Mini, the smaller of Sonos’ two subwoofers, is also on sale for $100 off at $399.

All in all, your affordable-but-not-cheap Sonos sound system will cost you $768 instead of $998. Ka-ching. Or maybe ka-boom........
