Disregard Amazon Prime Day; I've handpicked the optimal home cinema deals from specialized retailers instead.
Prime Day 2024 is here, and it's not just Amazon that's offering fantastic deals on AV equipment. Specialty retailers and high-end electronics stores are also joining in, providing substantial discounts on premium audio and video gear.
One of the standout deals is the **Marantz Model M1 Streaming Amplifier**, available for $800 (originally $1,000), a saving of $200. This high-quality streaming amp is perfect for music enthusiasts.
The **Denon AVR-S970H AV Receiver** can be found for $584 (originally $899), a saving of $315. Known for its power and broad compatibility, this AV receiver is a great addition to any home cinema setup.
For those seeking superior sound, the **Klipsch The Fives Powered Bookshelf Speakers** are now available for $499.99 (originally $969), a saving of $469.01. These popular powered speakers are ideal for home audio setups.
If you're after deep bass, the **SVS PB-4000 Subwoofer** is available for $1,799.99 (originally $2,299.99), a saving of $500. This high-performance subwoofer is a must-have for any serious home cinema system.
For audiophiles, the **Focal Hadenys Headphones** are now available for $497.80 (originally $699), a saving of $201.20. These premium headphones offer a refined sound quality that will impress even the most discerning listeners.
The **Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2e Headphones** are now available for $239 (originally $399), a saving of $160. These highly rated wireless headphones are a great choice for those who value both style and sound.
If you're looking for a projector for outdoor viewing, the **Yaber T2 Outdoor Projector** is available for $233.99 (originally $349.99), a saving of $116.
For a smart home speaker with rich sound, the **JBL Authentics 200 Smart Home Speaker** is now available for $199.95 (originally $379.95), a saving of $180.

Several retailers, such as John Lewis, Peter Tyson, Richer Sounds, and Sevenoaks Sound & Vision, are offering significant discounts on hi-fi systems, Apple, Beats, Bose headphones, Q Acoustics, Wharfedale speakers, and home cinema packages outside of Amazon.
For your home theater upgrades, the **Sony BRAVIA XR A95K Series 4K QD-OLED TV** is available for £1,498 from Amazon, representing a major markdown from its original price of £3,499. However, if you prefer to shop outside Amazon, local AV dealers and specialty stores mentioned above are offering competitive AV receiver and speaker deals that can elevate your setup.
Among the notable deals are the **Sony TA-AN1000 AV Amplifier**, which is available for £699 at various retailers, including Peter Tyson, Richer Sounds, and Sevenoaks, representing a saving of £300. This amplifier received five stars, the Award for the best home cinema receiver under £1500, and the Product of the Year Award in 2023 and 2024.
The **Denon AVC-X3800H AV Receiver** is available for £1099 at Sevenoaks, representing a saving of £400. This AV receiver earned five stars and a Product of the Year Award in 2022 for Best Home Cinema Amplifier.
Avoiding Amazon can be beneficial for finding great deals on serious home cinema kit. For instance, the **Hisense PL2 TV** is available for £1299 at Sevenoaks, representing a saving of £700. This TV delivers a similarly excellent picture performance as its predecessor, the PL1.
The **Sony Bravia Theatre Quad** delivers undeniably brilliant Dolby Atmos surround sound. However, it requires a separate purchase of the SA-SW5 subwoofer for a full bass experience, currently £626 at John Lewis with £150 cashback if bought at the same time as the Theatre Quad system.
In summary, the best non-Amazon Prime Day 2024 AV deals are on products from brands like Marantz, Denon, Klipsch, SVS, Focal, Bowers & Wilkins, Yaber, JBL, and Polk Audio, available through alternative retailers, often with savings from hundreds to over $500 off.
