Whether you’re eagerly awaiting this season’s episodes of The Great British Baking Show and Grey’s Anatomy, or you just can’t wait for football to kick off, upgrading your home theater setup makes watching everything so much more fun.
I uncover TVs, projectors, speakers, and any other gadgets that can make your living room elite — and I have been sifting through Amazon’s Labor Day deals to find the home entertainment upgrades most worth buying this fall. From a sleek Bose soundbar that drastically improves dialogue clarity to a Hisense TV that mimics canvas art when not in use, shop all my favorite home theater deals at Amazon below.

Bose TV Speaker Soundbar
Bose deals this big are rare. The brand’s best-selling 2.0-channel soundbar is ultra-sleek (less than 2 feet in length) and simple to set up. Connect it to your TV or projector using an HDMI, optical, or auxiliary cable, and to your phone using Bluetooth. Dialogue is this soundbar’s specialty, which makes it an ideal choice for anyone who struggles to make out what people on screen are saying when a scene has background noise.
Alvar 1000 ANSI 1080p Smart Projector, $170 with code
I’m a big fan of projectors, and the specs on this model impress me greatly for the price. Its 1000 ANSI rating (a.k.a. brightness level) means you’ll have no problem getting a good picture even in a room with some ambient light flooding in. It’s got all the major streaming apps built in and has 30-W Dolby speakers inside (a rarity among budget projectors). The reviews show shoppers using it on screens as big as 180 inches with great results.
Samsung 5.1-Channel Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer
A new TV or projector is fantastic, but upgrading your sound system makes the most drastic difference in improving a home theater setup. Soundbars are a noticeable improvement over built-in TV speakers, and a subwoofer really takes it to the next level by cranking the bass and rumbling your floor a bit. This Samsung soundbar setup has a wireless subwoofer and gives what shoppers call “incredibly immersive” audio after an easy setup process.
Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite with Camera, $80 with coupon
TV backlights are an underrated addition to a home theater setup — and one that will get many comments from your viewing party guests. There are tons of options at Amazon that can change colors based on the sounds they pick up from your TV, but I like this Govee set because it uses a small camera to see what’s on your screen and adjust the lights in real time to complement the picture. I have an older version of these on one of my TVs, and it’s super fun for gaming.
Amazon is packed with home theater upgrades as football season approaches. We’re all going to be spending a lot more time inside pretty soon, so treat yourself to the deals below on 4K TVs with elite specs, cable-hiding solutions, and more.
