Find Your Big Screen Star Match

It all starts with the screen. And the bigger the better. With their ultrawide field of vision, large screens are the secret to creating big-stadium vibes or Hollywood magic in the comfort of your living room. “Most of the latest big TVs deliver impressive features, such as enhanced dynamic range and ultrasharp 4K resolution, which means you can now sit closer to your screen. So sizes you may have ruled out previously might now be an option,” says John Milonas.

Scale Up Your Sound

“Audio tech is also in huge demand every Black Friday and can totally transform your home entertainment set-up,” says Christos Boukogiannis, The Good Guys Buyer – Audio.

Consider a smart soundbar that can simulate the Dolby Atmos cinema experience for next-level TV and tunes. Or a pair of wireless home theatre headphones to savour the majesty of surround sound without waking the neighbours.

Don’t have the space (or budget) for an army of speakers?

“A soundbar-and-subwoofer combo is one of the best and easiest ways to get that immersive audio sound that everyone wants,” says Christos. “Especially if it supports Dolby Atmos and has upfiring speakers that can bounce sound from the ceiling for even more high-impact audio.”
