For a fulfilling home entertainment experience, a good TV is just the beginning. There’s a wide range of accessories that you can add to your TV to amplify your enjoyment to the next level. For instance, you can convert a non-smart model to a smart TV with a Fire TV Stick. If you’re unhappy with the interface of your current smart TV, the Fire OS platform offers a reliable alternative. Additionally, you can add a soundbar and Bluetooth headphones to the mix. The former gives you room-filling sound for movie nights and the latter is great to avoid any disturbance for other members at home.
