Sony HT-SF150 £150 £93 at Amazon (save £57)
An excellent budget soundbar, the Sony HT-SF150 will do a lot to take your TV's audio up a notch from its built-in speakers. We gave this bar a solid four-star review, praising its premium looks, impressive scale and width, and of course, its accessible price point. Featuring HDMI (ARC) optical, and USB inputs, this bar should slot into almost any set-up.

Denon DHT-S216 £199 £149 at Amazon (save £50)
Denon is renowned for its stellar AVRs, but the company also makes some decent inexpensive soundbars. At this price, this Denon might not have top-tier features, but it's a great starter soundbar for the price. It features Dolby Digital and DTS encoding, Bluetooth connection and HDMI Arc support.

Samsung S50B £280 £150 at Amazon (save £130)
A Dolby Atmos soundbar at this price is practically unheard of, and while we haven't tested this Samsung option, we also can't overlook this deal. With eARC, wireless streaming and support for Atmos and Virtual DTS:X, this 3.0 channel bar might be a Prime Day hidden gem.

Denon DHT-S316 £279 £179 at Amazon (save £100)
Like the look of the other Denon but fancy a soundbar with a bit more oomph? The DHT-S316 includes a dedicated wireless sub for enhanced bass without the clutter of cords. It also includes Dolby Digital and DTS encoding, alongside Denon's speech-enhancing mode.

Panasonic SC-HTB490 £249 £199 at Amazon (save £50)
This svelte soundbar, designed to be wall-mounted, has two full-range, forward-facing 4.5 x 12cm drive units, two bass reflex ports adjacent to the drivers to help enhance lower frequencies within the narrow chassis, and a total power output of 160W. Its connectivity options are on the more basic side: you get HDMI (ARC), optical input, Bluetooth and a USB socket -so no wi-fi connectivity or streaming service support - but for those looking for a tidy, discrete soundbar this slender option might just fit the bill. 

Sonos Ray £279 £212 at Amazon (save £67)
Sonos' most accessible soundbar is a convenient way of drastically upgrading your TV's sound. This bar only features an optical connection but if this isn't a dealbreaker, it makes up for any shortcomings with an energetic upbeat sound and the streaming smarts you would expect of a Sonos product.

JBL Bar 300 £350 £249 at Amazon (save £101)
JBL has produced a budget soundbar that’s stylish, feature-packed, and Dolby Atmos compatible. All at a price that undercuts most rivals, too. The equally-priced Sony HT-S2000 sounds notably better, however, if your heart is set on a JBL soundbar, this is a solid choice.

Sony HT-S40R £350 £299 at Amazon (save £51)
Not one we've tested but wireless 5.1 systems at this price don't come along every day. The catch is that it isn't completely wireless, requiring an included compact wireless amplifier to power the rear speakers. But if you have the space to house it this looks to be a decent compact system with Bluetooth, HDMI ARC, a USB port, plus optical and analogue inputs. 

Sonos Beam Gen 2 £499 £440 at Amazon (save £59)
Sonos's impressive mid-level soundbar is a top-notch performer, especially at this price. Being a Sonos product, WIFI is on board as is HDMI eARC and compatibility with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

JBL Bar 1300 £1299 £999 at Peter Tyson (save £300)
JBL's Bar 1300 is an interesting system, combining a hefty soundbar with a subwoofer featuring a downwards-firing driver. What's more, the ends of the soundbar are detachable and can be used as rear surround speakers. All-in-all, it presents audio confidently across a seamless soundfield. You need to be a 'PT VIP' to get this price, but signing up is quick and free.

Samsung Q990D soundbar system £1699 £1299 at Amazon (save £400)
The Q990D looks and is conceptually very similar to the Q990C it replaces, but it sounds significantly better. This is a complete 11.1.4 Dolby Atmos home cinema in a box, and it sounds big, spacious, enveloping and punchy. A great system that is becoming better value all the time.
