Last chance! I've covered every Prime Day and these are the 7 best hi-fi, headphone and home cinema deals still live

I've been reviewing products and writing about consumer electronics for the best part of 20 years. In fact, I can remember a time before websites and online shopping, let alone before Prime Day.

As a result, I've been covering every Amazon deals extravaganza since the very first one back in 2015. Of course, we're now in the habit of seeing multiple Prime Days per year, which is why today is still all about Prime Big Deal Days, the latest sales event aimed at Prime members.

Thankfully, there have been genuinely good deals this year, including on audio and video products, which is our speciality on What Hi-Fi?. So if you want to upgrade your AV experience, what are the best Prime Day deals still live?

Headphones and wireless earbuds deals have featured heavily but there have also been great discounts on true hi-fi and home cinema products, both at Amazon and at independent specialist retailers.

I've picked out the following deals based on the What Hi-Fi? test team's choice of the most enticing savings on products that we have actually reviewed.

The top AV deals this Prime Day

WiiM Pro Plus was £219 now £169 at Richer Sounds (save £50)
The WiiM Pro Plus is THE best affordable network music streamer to pass through our listening room. It's compact, affordable, sounds great and is packed with every popular streaming feature and a streamlined, easy app experience that makes using it a dream. It was a steal at full price – but with £50 off? It almost feels too good to be true.

Ultimate OLED TV deals

The 42-inch LG C4 is the smallest size in the tech giant’s current step down line of OLED TVs. It’s also a direct successor to the LG C3, a What Hi-Fi? Award-winner that up until now has been the small OLED we recommend to most people.

Does it live up to its predecessor’s legacy? Thankfully, after putting it through its paces in our review labs we’re happy to confirm the 42-inch LG C4 is a fantastic OLED TV for those short on space.

And it has been sliced in price this Prime Day. Various retailers are offering a cut-price deal but right now the biggest saving is a £530 saving at Amazon.

Looking for a really good, genuinely affordable turntable with awesome features? Then look no more, as the five-star Sony PS-LX310BT – our favourite Bluetooth turntable – has reached its lowest price yet at Amazon.

Be warned that this Sony turntable deal never lasts long, so you had better hurry and snap up this terrific deal on an entertaining, fuss-free deck before midnight strikes!

Technics SA-C600 CD/streaming system

Technics is on a great run at the moment. The brand had a bit of a rocky start when it was reintroduced into the market in 2014, but since then has quickly found its feet. Over recent years we’ve reviewed a fair number of the company’s products and they’ve invariably been solid and talented performers. Not all have been class leaders, of course, but more often than not Technics hits gold – as it has with the SA-C600 system we have on test here. We call it a system, but you still need to add a pair of speakers.

Usually, such systems are all about looks and features but Technics has shown that it is possible to add great sound into the mix. It is a really well-conceived product and fully deserves the What Hi-Fi? Awards wins that have followed. Highly recommended.

Technics SA-C600 was £899, now £789 at Peter Tyson (save £110)
There isn’t much the Technics SA-C600 system can’t do. It will play your CDs, stream music from your favourite service, play vinyl from a connected turntable, and it has a 30W per channel amplifier inside so all you need to do is plug in a pair of speakers and you're good to go. It looks and feels elegant, and sounds even better. A charming, entertaining, talented hi-fi system.

The best Amazon Prime Day deals under £50

If you don't want to spend a fortune but do fancy something shiny and new to drop through your letterbox, you could do a lot worse than the following selection of serious bargains.

Our previous favourite streaming deal saw the Fire TV Stick drop to just £17 – unfortunately, that deal has just sold out. Fear not, as the step-up model which unlocks 4K streaming, Dolby Atmos HDR and a faster chipset is also on sale, so don't hesitate to snap up this streamer if you missed the previous Fire sale. We've not reviewed this latest model yet, but we did award the last generation Fire TV Stick 4K five stars, so the likelihood that this is an equally talented streamer is reasonably high.

These Award-winning earbuds have just been replaced by a new WF-C510 variant, but that doesn't mean they should be overlooked this Prime Day. At just £35, they're less than half the price we originally tested them at, making them an absolute steal. Expect a comfortable fit, compact size and a "spirited, well-balanced sound". You don't get active noise cancelling with these models, but for £35 can you really complain?
Five stars – Award-winner

We're cutting it slightly close to the price boundary here, but the five-star Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 is a bargain Bluetooth speaker in its own right, so an even lower price is worth celebrating. At just £48 (£12 lower than the price when we reviewed it) the Stormbox Micro 2 is a feature-packed, compact and enjoyable-sounding portable speaker – and its rugged design means it's an ideal companion for the great outdoors.

This better-than-half-price saving on Amazon's compact smart speaker is an ideal entry point into the world of Alexa-powered smart home peripherals. It also happens to sound great for the price, with an expansive and dynamic performance that caught us off guard in our full review. Better yet, Amazon is offering a range of smart home starter kits featuring this speaker, including a smart plug bundle or a Philips Hue lightbulb bundle.

Amazon's budget tablet was already a bargain when we reviewed it at £60 as it managed to hold its own in a world of iPads that cost five times as much as the plucky Fire 7. Of course, Amazon has heavily discounted its own hardware for its savings event, and it's hard to argue with a fully-fledged tablet for £30, especially when it's an Award winner. This model features ads on the lock screen, though you can pay an additional £10 to remove them if you so desire.

Get this one if: you just want better sound from your TV

The Sonos Ray hit an unexpectedly new lowest price this Prime Day, making it the obvious one to buy if you want a cheap and cheerful upgrade and an intro to the Sonos system.

Available in black or white, the Ray measures just 56cm in width, meaning it is best suited to smaller TVs or even as a desktop speaker with a monitor.
