The best speaker deals — save $50 on Google's Home smart speaker

  * Speakers with good performance can be pricey, but they often go on sale. * We've compiled all the best speaker deals for April 2020. * We'll update this list regularly with new deals as they're announced. * Right now, the Google Home smart speaker is on sale for $49.99 — that's $50 off its original price. Great speakers can make listening to music far more enjoyable — and speakers have been getting a whole lot better over the past few years. These days, even relatively inexpensive speakers can deliver well-rounded bass response, a well-tuned mid-range, and plenty of clarity and detail in the high end.  Of course, if you're in the market for a new speaker or speakers, you'll want to think about exactly what kind of speaker best matches your needs. There are a number of different types of speakers, and they can all serve drastically different purposes.  If you want something to take to the beach or use on the go, then a portable Bluetooth speaker is probably your best option. If you're looking to enhance your TV-viewing experience, then home theater speakers or a soundbar will do the job. If you want to bring a digital assistant into your home, then consider a smart speaker. If you just want speakers around the house to listen to music on, then perhaps it's worth considering bookshelf speakers. And, last but not least, if you want a more immersive computing experience, then consider buying a pair of computer speakers. It's also a good idea to take the brand into consideration when purchasing speakers. Depending on the type of speaker you end up buying, you'll want to seek out different brands. For example, if you're buying a smart speaker, then it's definitely worth looking at options from companies like Amazon, Google, and Apple. Vizio and Samsung, meanwhile, are both safe bets for soundbars. If you're setting up a surround sound system, then brands like Klipsch and Focal will be a better fit for your needs.  Last but not least, you'll want to think about your budget — and your budget might again depend on the type of speakers you're looking for. You can get decent Bluetooth and smart speakers for under $150 – but that probably won't be enough if you're looking for a soundbar or multiple home theater speakers. Thankfully, you may be able to stay on budget and save some cash thanks to these awesome deals. After combing through the web, we've rounded up the best speaker deals out there for a variety of needs.  Here are the best speaker deals in April 2020: * JBL Xtreme 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker (Blue), $249.99 (originally $349.99) at Best Buy [You save $100] * Vizio 5.1.4-Channel Soundbar System, $798.99 (originally $999.99) at Best Buy [You save $201] * Amazon Echo (3rd Gen), $59.99 (originally $99.99) at Best Buy [You save $40] * Google Home, $49.99 (originally $99.99) at Best Buy [You save $50] * Klipsch Black Reference Theater Pack 5.1 System, $469.95 (originally $999) at Amazon [You save $529.05] * Logitech Z313 2.1 Speakers, $32.88 (originally $49.99) at Amazon [You save $17.11] Prices and links are current as of 04/27/2020.

Home theater speakers can be set up as a simple pair of stereo speakers next to your TV, or a full surround sound system. It should be noted, however, that home theater speakers typically require a separate AV receiver for power and processing, which can make purchasing a full system very pricey.

Currently discounted models include the Klipsch Black Reference Theater Pack, which features a full 5.1 speaker setup for around $529 off. * Klipsch Black Reference Theater Pack 5.1 System, $469.95 (originally $999) at Amazon [You save $529.05] * Klipsch R-26FA 5.1.2 Speaker System, $1,575.00 (originally $2,355) at Adorama [You save $780.00] * Polk Audio T15 Bookshelf Speakers, $99.00 (originally $119.00) at Amazon [You save $20] * MartinLogan Motion 20, $499.99 each (originally $799.99) at Crutchfield [You save $300] Best computer speaker deals Want to avoid having to use headphones all the time when you're at your computer? A great pair of computer speakers can make for a better PC gaming experience, or simply make listening to music and podcasts more enjoyable. Sometimes, computer speakers even come with a small subwoofer to help enhance bass performance. The best deal on computer speakers right now is for the Logitech Z313. This affordable 2.1 speaker system is our pick for the best budget computer speaker package you can buy. The Z313 is normally a solid buy at its regular price of $49.99, but it's currently on sale for an even more enticing deal price of $32.88.  * Logitech Z313 2.1 Speakers, $32.88 (originally $49.99) at Amazon [You save $17.11] * Pyle HiFi Desktop Bookshelf Speakers Pair, $81.40 (originally $90.99) at Amazon [You save $9.59]

* The world could need as many as 14 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines, Bill Gates said on Thursday in a blog post about the race to develop a way to make people immune to the disease. * "We need to make billions of doses, we need to get them out to every part of the world, and we need all of this to happen as quickly as possible," Gates said. * Gates said he had his eyes on eight to 10 promising candidates, adding that healthcare workers and people in low-income countries should be first in line once we find one that works. * While potential vaccines are progressing with historic speed, they're still months, or even years away, and the biggest challenge lies ahead in proving whether they are safe and effective in humans. * Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.
