EPP/EDU Only,
Currently it is $80 off and when you apply EDU discount it gets another %50 off, get you to $135, Price have gone less before too around $100 but at this price still not bad.

I personally use it with desktop computer via optical cable and its great for the price (discounted).

A pair of cheap bookshelf speakers can easily beat any of these sound bars. I have spent money on different brands of sound bars, which beeing reviewed as "perfect" "amazing" "wonderful", turned out all sucks.

I have to disagree at this price point, getting something better might be harder.

While true, you would need a power source and a mounting source. Buying a used stereo receiver and an optical cable, speaker wire, then having somewhere to place the receiver, and bookshelves may be more than most want to invest in upgrading their built in tv speakers.
Most of these budget Bluetooth speakers have very similar drivers to what's inside of the tv. They sound better because they have a dedicated box which adds a bit more low end, but reduces the stereo effect because the sound bar usually isn't as wide as the TV. They also have a slightly larger amplifier and front firing speakers. Modern flat screens are all screen, so most tvs have rear or down firing speakers.
For a parent or grandparent hard of hearing, or someone who needs a little more volume and likes the sound of a Bluetooth speaker, these are probably amazing. If someone has the time to set up a true 2.0 or 2.1 AVR or even powered monitor system, they will absolutely beat a plastic Bluetooth sound bar. I would be willing to bet an Anker $30 Bluetooth speaker would improve the sound of most TV's. Manufacturers have been riding the poor tv sound wave for many years.

As a proud owner of Atmos soundbar, do not expect surround sound or real Atmos effect

Somehow I just got this for $99. It was showing $135 on the product page, but when I went to checkout it was down to $99. Shut up and take my money. Thanks OP!

Bought two of these for under 100 last time , one has worked great. Have to say though , serious issues with intermittent drop of signal and choppy audio. Still Can't figure it out maybe a warranty case
