Here at What Hi-Fi?, we're big fans of the Yamaha YSP-2700, so much so that we gave it five stars in our review. Its well-balanced tonality, solid dynamics and wide, spacious 7.1-channel surround sound gave it a sense of immersion, and the included wireless subwoofer really drove it home. It's often discounted, but this is one of the better savings we've seen on this setup, at Amazon.

Xbox Series S | AU$499 AU$449 on Amazon (save AU$50)

While it isn't a huge discount, the latest generation of consoles are still super fresh on the market (and very rarely in stock), so even seeing AU$50 off the Xbox Series S is worth a look.
