Amazon Prime Day 2025 in Australia: this year's best deals on headphones, hi-fi gear, home cinema and more

These true wireless buds are a bargain at their full price, so picking a pair up for 33% off is something of a no-brainer if you want good sound but are on a super tight budget. These are one of the cheapest sets of earbuds we're comfortable recommending.

As the winner of a What Hi-Fi? 2024 Award, it's incredibly easy to recommend the WF-C510: they're compact, comfortable, IPX4 water resistant, and serve up a delightful, balanced sound – punching well about their sub-AU$100 price tag. Their one shortcoming is that they don't offer active noise cancelling, but given they have decent passive noise isolation (like most rubber-tip equipped in-ears) that shouldn't be an issue for most people.

If you can afford the extra and want noise-cancelling, these model-up Sonys on the WF-C500 above are a fantastic pick, earning 5 stars in our 2024 WF-C700N review. These deliver sensational sound quality and offer 7.5 hours of battery life per charge, multipoint Bluetooth and IPX4 water resistance, plus ANC. Also available in black for AU$100.

Sony's LinkBuds S are its alternative flagship wireless in-ears, and they're both smaller and lighter than their WF-1000XM5 counterparts, so they're more comfortable to wear, particularly for long periods. As we noted in our 4-star LinkBuds S review, they're still water resistant and offer both good audio quality and noise-reduction. They're also currently hugely cheaper than the XM5s via this Amazon deal, which knocks an impressive 55% off the RRP. Only available in black with this discount.

There's a heap of Sennheiser gear on special for Prime Day, but even in that crowd this deal on the most underrated wireless earbuds in town stands out. The Momentum True Wireless 4 offer such sonic refinement and comfort that they're a serious alternative to the top-class Sony XM5 and the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, and this discount makes them substantially cheaper than either. We've only seen them cost less once before, and that was only by AU$5. Five stars

These in-ear monitors were already affordable, so this 54% discount makes them a true bargain. As we said in our Sennheiser IE 200 review, they deliver a clear, rich sound and are capable of producing a good level of bass depth. You will likely need a 3.5mm-to-USB or -Lightning adapter (or one of the best DACs) to get them connected to your phone, and even if you're not sure if you could go back to wired in-ears (if you're now firmly in camp Bluetooth) at this price, they're a no-brainer.

This massive discount on the Sennheiser IE 600 brings them to a new all-time low Australian price, making them a great option for anyone wanting to invest in a quality set of wired in-ear monitors. If you listen to music via a PC or smartphone with an external DAC, then these will unearth plenty of detail, and are highly capable of reproducing all the frequency ranges with gusto.

Hitting a new all-time Australian low price for Prime Day, Sennheiser's mid-range wireless noise-cancellers frankly aren't all that competitive at their RRP, but at 64% off we cannot argue with the value on offer. Though they lack a little when it comes to dynamic punch, the sound is clean and clear, and they have impressive ANC and a 50-hour battery life. What's more, this Special Edition pair comes with a free USB Bluetooth adaptor.

If you're finding yourself a bit baffled by Bose's huge range of QuietComfort headphones, we don't blame you. This SC variant gets you the audio brand's current (and well-regarded) mainstream noise-cancelling over-ears with a soft carry case – thus the 'SC' – rather than the hard case the regular version comes with. The cans themselves are identical. We haven't reviewed this pair but they are a modest update on the four-star QuietComfort 45, which we praised for superb noise-cancelling and, OK battery life and decent sound.

The price on this impressive set of over-ears from Shure has dropped a further AU$47 dollars since Prime Day started, meaning they significantly undercut deals from Bose, Sony and Sennheiser. That makes the Shure Aonic 40 very easy to recommend. They boast more advanced noise cancellation than the Aonic 50, and 25 hours of battery life. You're also able to fine-tune the sound output thanks to a customisable equaliser. This discount is for the white model but the black colourway is currently also reduced to the same price.

Sennheiser's delivered something special with the HD 620S, which offer the expansive and spacious acoustics of open-back headphones in a closed-back design. This audiophile-grade pair of over-ears earned 4 stars in our Sennheiser HD 620S review, where we praised their "detailed and smooth sound". With a massive 58% off their Aussie RRP, we have no reservations recommending them to those who enjoy open-back sound.

The fourth outing of Sennheiser's Momentum Wireless range of over-ears is nothing short of spectacular. They deliver effective ANC, coupled with a clean and musical sound, which you'll be able to listen to for an incredible 60 hours... far more than their closest competitors elsewhere on this page. This price is a new all-time low, and frankly an amazing bargain for a set of cans that can go head-to-head with Sony and Bose. Also available in graphite for AU$256.50, the SE edition for AU$265, as well as black and white for AU$258.40.

We haven't given these AKG headphones a full review yet, but they were unveiled at IFA 2024 as the first pair of over-ears from the storied brand since Samsung acquired its parent company, Harman. We've gone hands-on with them, and love the fact they come with a USB-C dongle for more stable streaming from devices (which is stored inside the ear cup) and they have up to 100 hours of battery life with ANC off. And, from our brief listening time, they sound poised and controlled. With 50% off, these could be the best deal of Prime Day.

Bose continues its class-leading noise-cancellation legacy with the QuietComfort Ultra headphones and backs that up with exceptional sound quality. We personally weren't too convinced by the new Immersive Audio mode, but the fact it doesn't discriminate against source or streaming service means there is still plenty of appeal. Now discounted to around AU$370 across the Black, White, Diamond and Blue colourways.

While Sony's brand-new XM6 over-ears landed a few months ago, their predecessors are still an excellent Award-winning set. As we noted in our WH-1000XM5 review, "If you are looking for a new pair of wireless noise-cancelling headphones, your auditioning should start here." Packed with incredible sound quality, great noise-cancelling and a superb range of features. Note that this deal is for the soft-case version, while the full-price model comes with a hard case that's a bit bigger but arguably offers better protection.

Already pretty affordable, and now even more so thanks to this 45% discount on the JBL Clip 4 – which sees it becoming an even more appealing option for anyone looking for an ultra-portable Bluetooth speaker who size of sound belies its small form factor. It's fully waterproof and a built-in carabiner clip means you can attach it to almost anything. Want the newer model? The JBL Clip 5 is down to AU$63.65 (from AU$89.95).

With top-notch sound and a durable waterproof build designed to withstand life's mishaps and challenges, the JBL Flip 6 is a sturdy, reliable bit of kit for enjoying tunes on the go. While its newer Flip 7 sibling does offer some improvements, this deal more than makes up for the price difference; the Flip 7 carries an RRP of AU$179.95, and despite its age, this older model still thoroughly impresses. Five stars

While it's technically been superseded by the newer Charge 6, we still love the Charge 5's combination of ruggedness, portability, easy-to-use features and overall punchy, detailed and engaging sound, not to mention how good-value it is. For this money, the Award-winning Charge 5 still one of the top portable Bluetooth speakers you can buy. Highly recommend.

This 2024 Award winner offers bold sound that doesn't distort at high volumes, an attractive design and a brilliant 24-hour battery life. It is big, so not quite as portable as the models above, but it's incredibly powerful and built to withstand tough environments.

If you like UE's way of doing Bluetooth speakers the Boom 3 is a fine choice for a medium-sized model. It's tough and rugged, and fully waterproof. You can also link up multiple Boom 3s to create a full daisy chain of speakers. Three colours are discounted for Prime Day, with blue being the cheapest, but you can also nab black or purple for around the same AU$130 mark.

If you don't need a tough, rugged exterior, this second-generation Bose SoundLink Flex, which launched in late 2024, is a good choice. While the exterior is quite sleek compared to the UE and JBL counterparts, It's still waterproof and delivers sound with a clear and detailed midrange. It's also perfectly portable, but it's perhaps best suited to being taken outside to the pool, rather than on a full hiking trip. All six colours are available but Alpine is AU$147 and Blue is AU$159.

It's been a little cheaper in some previous sales (it was AU$59 for Boxing Day 2024, for example), but with an impressive spec list, full range of Australian streaming apps, and an easy-to-navigate interface – particularly when using the bundled Alexa remote – the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max offers plug-and-play streaming at a very nice price.

The Fire TV Stick 4K is down 40% to AU$59, too, while the entry-level Fire TV Stick HD is reduced to AU$49, or 29% off.

Anker's pint-sized Nebula Capsule projectors are a favourite among both reviewers and users. The Capsule 3 is limited in brightness and we found it a bit expensive, but this discount certainly helps the latter. It's very user-friendly and runs Google TV for the OS, meaning there's wide support for streaming platforms via their official apps. This deal knocks a tidy 50% off the usual price.

Despite being over 5 years old, we still reckon this already-affordable 2-channel Sony model is the best cheap soundbar you can buy in 2025 – and this almost AU$70 discount makes it even easier to recommend. While it has been a smidge cheaper (it was AU$169 for Boxing Day, for example), this is still a great price for a well-built 'bar that will improve your TV's sound with minimum hassle.

This entry-level Bose soundbar has seen some exceptionally deep discounting on Amazon before (dropping below AU$150 at one point), so for Prime Day 2025 it's not quite the steal it's been previously. We've not tested it ourselves unfortunately, but the user reviews are largely very positive, so if you've been holding out for a cheap Bose soundbar specifically, this could be worth a look. That said, when the excellent Sony HT-S100F (above) is AU$75 cheaper, we know which we'd choose...

We were a little disappointed Sennheiser's smallest soundbar didn't quite live up to the benchmark set by its larger Plus and Max siblings, but at this price, it presents itself as much greater value.

A soundbar, subwoofer and rear channel satellite speakers, the components in Yamaha’s True X soundbar system combine well to create a cohesive and enveloping soundfield, sounding exciting and detailed with both movies and music. For smaller spaces and the discounted price, this combination offers a satisfying listening experience.

We awarded the Ambeo Plus a full five stars, praising it for delivering its "astonishing ability to fill a room with sound" and the fact it can handle Atmos soundtracks well. It's impeccably built, too, and offers a broad range of features. We would've loved if its two HDMI inputs were of the 2.1 variety, but as producer of sound first and foremost, it's tricky to fault. Also available from Sennheiser for AU$1,499.

While this deal is shy of the Echo Pop's all time low of AU$29 (back at Black Friday last year), this is still a respectable discount if you're looking to try out a smart speaker without forking out too much. As the cheaper, more colourful alternative to the Echo Dot, the Pop is built for smaller rooms, and has Alexa onboard for all the usual smart home tricks.

The 5th-generation Echo Dot is a great smart speaker with impressive connectivity and streaming capabilities, and considering the size of its driver, its sound output is surprisingly robust. At this AU$43 discount, it definitely delivers excellent bang for buck. This black colourway offers the biggest discount, but it's also available in blue and white for AU$8 more.

Alexa feels present and useful but not imposing, the Alexa app support makes placement and multi-room configurations a breeze, and the sound quality, while a step down from ideal, easily passes the sound-per-pound value test for a smart speaker of this modest price. We've seen it for AU$4 cheaper previously, so this price is only a little shy of that.

Want all the Alexa smart speaker features with the added bonus of a video screen? Of course you do. The latest Echo Show 5 is a five-star Echo speaker with a display, and is now reduced by a healthy 33%.

This Sony turntable is as fuss-free as they come concerning setup and getting your favourite vinyl records spinning. Whether you're playing via wired or wireless speakers, it delivers a delightfully musical sound that will satisfy vinyl beginners or those looking for a more hands-off approach. It has Bluetooth so can stream vinyl to your wireless speakers too. This is not quite the cheapest we have seen it on Amazon, but it's still a great discount – just make sure to click the AU$30 coupon.

JBL's first ever turntable (one of two to be released at the same time) is a surefire winner in the budget space. It has a great quality built-in phono output making connection to an amplifier as easy as possible (but you can by pass it if you wish) or you can stream via Bluetooth to a wireless speaker. We'd obviously recommend using the phono output first, but streaming via Bluetooth is a lot more convenient!

We haven't reviewed this particular speaker from Audioengine, but we did give their A2 predecessor a 4-star review. The main difference with this newer A2+ version is the addition of Bluetooth, opening them up to the world of streaming (the previous model accepted physical source components, only). They're certainly affordable and could work wonders in a smaller room or as part of your first hi-fi setup.

This Award winning active speaker system is nothing short of incredible. It takes the previous award winning LSX II system and makes a few, minor adjustments to keep the cost down. Most notably, you need to hardwire the speakers together, they go without an aux input and they're not available in as many colours. Crucially, the sound hasn't changed and as you'll see in our KEF LSX II LT review, we think they're pretty darn perfect.

A 2023 What Hi-Fi? Award winner for good reason, the WiiM Pro Plus is an incredibly talented streamer that support virtually any source you can think of, be it a music or internet radio service, or music stored on a server thanks to DLNA compatibility. Analogue inputs mean you can stream from your turntable or CD player too, and the sound it serves up is exceptional for the money.

Anyone looking for a budget streaming app should have the WiiM Amp on their list. It's incredibly simple to use, is well-built and it's capable of delivering a lively, enjoyable sound. It is limited in its physical connections, but otherwise there isn't a lot that comes close at this price. The space grey colourway is the cheapest, but you can also nab it in silver for AU$399.20.

This five-star streamer is a joy to look at and to use. It offers a healthy selection of physical connections including HDMI and a phono stage, alongside the streaming capabilities that have made the brand famous. Sound quality is excellent, too, and you'll no doubt want to endlessly scroll through your various libraries to rediscover old favourites.
