Doubling down on Amazon’s Echo speakers has its advantages. You can pair them for stereo sound or use them to create a home theater setup for your Fire TV.

If you have signed up for Prime, you can take advantage of the discount using the code PDDOT2PK at the register.

Chances are, you are probably familiar with Amazon’s Echo line. But, you might have missed the makeover that the Echo and its little brother received last year. Both smart speakers are now spherical – a change that seems even bigger when you consider the tiny puck-style shape of the original Echo Dot.
