Update 11/30/24: The Black Friday Vizio soundbar deals that we’ve rounded up here remain online, so you’ve still got a chance at these amazing discounts. We’re going to keep adding bargains to this roundup, though, so stay tuned.
When it comes to home theater soundbars, one brand that knows how to drive the decibels home is Vizio. And, as luck would have it, both Amazon and Best Buy are offering a slew of Black Friday discounts on some of Vizio’s best soundbars of the last few years! You’ll save up to 25% on some of the best Vizio gear, and we have no doubt you’ll love what you hear.
In terms of markdowns, the Vizio Elevate 5.1.4 is the best of the bunch, with both retailers offering the premium Dolby Atmos system for $550, which is $450 less than normal. It’s hard to say exactly how long these discounts are going to stick around for though. While we’d like to say they’ll stick around for a while after Black Friday, that may not be the case. So, if you like what you see, your best bet is to buy soon!
Vizio Elevate 5.1.4 — $550 $1,000 45% off
We’ve had great things to say about the Vizio Elevate Series in the past, and this edition of the P514a-H6 5.1.4 is getting the Black Friday treatment from both Amazon and Best Buy! Save $450 for this awesome Dolby Atmos emulator, which comes with the main soundbar, a wireless subwoofer, and two rear speakers. You can thank us after watching your first movie in surround sound!
Vizio All-in-One Soundbar (SV210D) — $130 $150 13% off
The Vizio SV210D is $20 off today and features two built-in subwoofers for deep, room-rattling sound. You’ll even be able to download the Vizio mobile app to fine-tune audio settings in a pinch!
Vizio M-Series All-in-One 2.1 Soundbar — $141 $200 21% off
Bringing the power of four high-performance drivers and two bass-heavy woofers to the table is just another walk in the park for Vizio. And that’s exactly what you’ll get with the Vizio M-Series All-in-One 2.1 Soundbar. Score this killer setup for $59 off as part of Amazon and Best Buy’s Black Friday soundbar deals.
Vizio V-Series 5.1 Soundbar — $190 $220 14% off
The best Dolby Atmos soundbars constantly blow our minds, but what about something a bit more traditional? Not only is the Vizio V-Series 5.1 Soundbar $30 off for Black Friday, but you’ll still be able to achieve the height, depth, and soundstage of an entire 5.1 Dolby or DTS surround configuration with this bad boy!
Vizio Elevate 5.1.2 — $400 $500 20% off
Continuing the Black Friday soundbar deals, we have the incredible Vizio Elevate 5.1.2. Marked down to $400 from $500, this is another Atmos emulator that can virtualize a complete surround system. It also comes with a Vizio QuickFit attachment, allowing you to easily connect the soundbar to the bottom of your 4K TV.
How to choose a Vizio soundbar for Black Friday
One of the most important questions to ask yourself is, “Do I just want better TV sound, or am I looking for a complete surround sound experience?” If the former is what you’re after, you’ll want to focus on the Vizio soundbars with 2.0 or 2.1 designations, which means the soundbar only has two audio channels (plus some kind of subwoofer). If you’re saying yes to the latter, keep an eye out for 5.1, 5.1.2, and 5.1.4. These numbers mean the Vizio soundbar decodes Dolby and DTS surround and that the soundbar can (in most cases) virtualize a big speaker system.
Other essential features to look out for are built-in Alexa or Google Assistant for music streaming and smart home controls, as well as HDMI ARC/eARC if you want Netflix and other smart TV apps to be playable through your new soundbar. And if you want more than just Vizio options, do have a look at our roundup of the best soundbars, best Dolby Atmos soundbars, and best soundbars under $500.
How we chose these Black Friday Vizio soundbar deals
When it comes to Vizio audio, you’re always in good hands. So, we do our best to highlight the soundbars that give you the best bang for your buck. First and foremost, this means keeping a keen eye on the best discounts and promos for the days and weeks leading up to Black Friday. If you’re only going to save a few bucks on a product that may not have the best reviews or is hard to find, you’re not going to see it on our list of deals.
We’ve also reviewed several Vizio products over the years and know what it takes to create a high-performance entertainment space. To that end, we look for Vizio soundbars that deliver an excellent mix of highs, mids, and lows, along with convenient technologies such as wireless subs and rear channels. HDMI ARC/eARC are checkboxes that are just as important to us. Without this certification, you’ll have a much harder time sending TV audio to your Vizio soundbar.
