SAVE $300: As of March 7, the Bose Smart Soundbar 550 with Dolby Atmos is available for $199 at Walmart. That’s a 60% discount from its regular price of $499.
Good speakers don’t have to cost a fortune. Walmart just knocked $300 off the Bose Smart Soundbar 550, bringing it down to $199 from its usual $499. That’s a 60% discount on a premium soundbar that upgrades your TV audio without turning your living room into an electronics graveyard of tangled wires and bulky speakers.
Bose packed a lot of tech into this 27-inch soundbar, proving that small doesn’t mean weak. The TrueSpace technology up-mixes stereo and 5.1 audio to create a more immersive sound experience, even when content isn’t Dolby Atmos-encoded. Translation: movies, music, and TV shows sound richer, fuller, and more spread across your space instead of just blasting straight at you.
It also has AI Dialogue Mode, which automatically balances voices and surround sound, so you don’t have to crank up the volume to hear what people are saying. No more rewinding every time someone mumbles their lines.
For a soundbar this size, it pushes sound impressively far. Five transducers, including two that fire upward, help bounce audio off the ceiling to create a sense of height and depth. Bose 550 fills the room in a way that built-in TV speakers can’t compete with, including blockbuster action scenes or just listening to music.
