Want to revamp your home theater setup, but aren’t keen on the idea of sacrificing your entire lounge to a giant screen and massive speaker package to get decent results? Then we have good news, because there are currently two great Black Friday deals that let you get Sony’s latest Which hi-fi? Award-winning OLED TV and Dolby Atmos soundbar at a deep discount – a combo that we have personally tested in our review rooms and recommend.
The first deal is now on Amazon and lets you in grab the 55-inch Bravia 8 OLED TV for £1499. That’s a saving of £700 on the RRP of £2199 and the best price we’ve ever seen it sell for. The second is currently running on Sevenoaks Sound and Vision and will let you pick up the five stars Sony Bravia Theater Bar 9 Dolby Atmos soundbar we tested in early October for £999 – an atypically early saving of £400 off the normal price of £1399. Both are five-star products and basic products in our best OLED TV And best Dolby Atmos soundbar guides we recommend. The Bravia 8 is the only new OLED from Sony this year, with the more expensive ones Bravia 9 choose one Mini LED panel. We currently rate the Bravia 8 as the best OLED TV for most people, as it delivered one of the best images we’ve seen this year in testing. Whether it was the gloomy cityscape The Batman or sparkling clear deserts of Dune: part 2, the Bravia 8 provided a punchy yet balanced and authentic movie watching experience. That’s why we gave it one 2024 Which hi-fi? Award and concluded in our review:

“The very fact that Sony has managed to make improvements (on the A80L) is impressive, especially as the upgrades focus on the key areas that cinephiles care about. Skin tones are warmer and more realistic, and advances in lighting control make the photo look beautifully three-dimensional. Audio also remains a lot better than the experience you get on competing sets.” Meanwhile, the Bravia Theater Bar 9 is the premium Dolby Atmos soundbar we recommend to most people. With a pack of 13 drivers, an updated design and, most importantly, great audio performance, this is an ideal complement to the Bravia 8. How do we know? Because we tested the two together in our dedicated home theater review rooms. Look at the photo above and you will see that it is the feet of the Bravia 8 that the Bar 9 sits on top of. The package holistically delivers the best picture and audio performance you can get from a TV and soundbar. That’s why we highly recommend that any buyer looking to fully upgrade their rig this year consider these two deals.
