Roku Streambar is the powerful 2-in-1 entertainment upgrade with Roku streaming and premium sound for any TV. Upgrade to America’s #1 TV streaming platform* for a massive selection of free and live TV, and a customizable home screen with your favorite channels, like Netflix, HBO Max, Disney Plus, Prime Video, and Freevee front and center Hear every detail as you stream the newest and most popular channels in vibrant 4K HDR picture quality. Crisp, clean audio makes dialogue easier to hear and with its compact design, you’ll be amazed at how something so small can fill your room with sound. You can even quiet loud commercials automatically, plus stream your favorite music and more with Bluetooth®. Setup is simple with everything you need in the box, including the Roku voice remote that controls your TV, sound, and streaming. Plus, it’s easily expandable for even bigger sound. Add deep, rich bass with Roku Wireless Subwoofer and immersive surround sound with one or two sets of Roku Wireless Speakers(sold separately). There’s no need to run cables across your living room. Just plug in these speakers and subwoofer and wirelessly pair them for even better sound. *Based on hours streamed—Hypothesis Group.

RTINGS

If you have even less space in your living room, consider the Roku Streambar, which is smaller than the Sony HT-S100F. It's less than 14 inches wide, so it fits beneath your computer monitor or TV stand without taking up much space. Plus, it has a built-in Roku media streamer, so when you connect it to your TV, you can organize all your streaming services, like Netflix and Hulu, in one place. You even have a voice assistant built into the remote. However, it can bounce above $100 from time to time, but these extra features may make it worth the price for you.

This 2.0 bar is ideal for listening to stereo content, which includes most music and dialogue-focused TV shows. It provides a clear and accurate reproduction of voices and lead instruments right out of the box. Sound enhancement features are limited, but there are adjustable dialogue enhancement, night modes, and some EQ presets to add more boom in the bass range. Since it's smaller than the Sony, it's no surprise that it brings a little less rumble in the bass range and doesn't get quite as loud. Still, if you're low on space, it's a great option at an affordable price.

If you're looking for a basic upgrade over your TV speakers at a low cost, look at the Roku Streambar, which is the best budget small soundbar we've tested. At under 14 inches in width, its compact design is ideal for smaller living spaces at a more affordable price. As a bonus, it gives you access to Roku's media streamer, a handy tool that organizes your streaming services like Netflix and Hulu into one interface so you can easily switch between your favorite programs. It's well-built for its price, with many wireless playback options like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi so you can stream music from your phone to the bar itself.

Like the Sony HT-S200F, this bar is best suited for listening to vocal-centric content like TV shows and podcasts. It has an okay sound quality, with balanced mids that make it easy to follow the dialogue in TV shows and distinguish instruments in your favorite songs. As with the Sony, there's a slight recess in the treble that brings a bit of darkness to the mix. However, you notice a difference between the two bars with bass-centric genres like EDM and hip-hop. Since it lacks an integrated sub, the Roku struggles to bring the thump and rumble in the low-bass. You can always add a separate sub from the manufacturer, but it'll add to the cost. The Sony's a better bet if you want more rumble out-of-the-box&mdash;however, if you mostly listen to content without a lot of bass mixed in, like podcasts, the Roku remains a solid bet at a cheaper price.

 Cheers! Now first up, the Roku stream bar is incredibly compact compared with a lot of budget alternatives. It'll quite happily sit in front of almost any telly, otherwise it can also be mounted on a wall if that's your setup. Like the rest of the Roku fam, the stream bar works with basically any TV with a spare HDMI port and the setup is so simple that even an inebriated toddler could probably manage it. So for a maccom like myself it wasn't too tricky

 Now if you've got yourself a 4k TV that is lacking decent smart streaming features well the soundbar can definitely help you out. You've got ultra HD streaming support via the likes of Netflix so you'll get gorgeous 4k clarity at up to 60 hertz. And the Roku Streambar also offers full HDR10 support although not the fresher HDR10 Plus or Dolby Vision either so assume you don't get the full complement of HDR support like the likes the Chromecast offer but at least you can still enjoy that nice crisp contrast and natural looking colors on the likes of Netflix and Prime Video. But perhaps unsurprisingly where the Roku Streambar really excels is the audio experience

9 inches in size two of them are front facing and two of them are angled out for a surround sound experience to fill the room as Roku puts it and I'll tell you what that is not a lie. Certainly by no means do I have the biggest living room around or anything but I was really really impressed by how well that Streambar emulated a surround sound experience at times I could swear that I had other speakers to the left to the right and sometimes even behind me. This thing gets proper loud so you certainly won't need it anywhere near top volume and not only is the audio quality superb but that bass is strong enough to make it feel like the very walls are rumbling. It's been an absolute delight when watching horror movies in the run up to Halloween

 This thing gets proper loud so you certainly won't need it anywhere near top volume and not only is the audio quality superb but that bass is strong enough to make it feel like the very walls are rumbling. It's been an absolute delight when watching horror movies in the run up to Halloween. Seriously if you get yourself a Roku Streambar then definitely try watching something like The Lighthouse where the sound plays a really really large part in adding to the atmosphere absolutely brilliant stuff and if you're a living room gamer as well I definitely highly recommend the Streambar too I tried testing it out with a good bit of Halo 5 and some other action titles and certainly ones like Gunfight and The Explosion Star it is standby spare pair of pants time. When you're watching something later on and you don't want to disturb the rest of the household who might be trying to get a bit of kip upstairs just tap the star button and then switch on the night listening mode this can boost the dialogue while tempering the music although personally in my testing I found that in that same sounds menu it was better just to boost up the voice clarity feature while also using the reduce bass feature and that made it really easy to follow the dialogue without the crank the volume right up and you've also got a bluetooth receiver built into the Roku Streambar so you can play your music direct from your smartphone otherwise Roku does also support Deezer, Spotify, Tidal and a few other music streaming services including the free BBC sound service which is well worth checking out so if you're after a 4k streaming device and your tv's audio is a bit cack well the Roku Streambar will merrily murder both of those birds with one bloody mass of rock even if you're on a fairly tight budget it's certainly not perfect with the lack of HDR 10 plus and Dolby Vision support and of course that UI is about as sexy as a cold cup of tea but for just over 100 quid it's really hard to quibble so that's what I think of the Roku Streambar but have you been using it as well be great to hear your own mini review down in the comments below please do poke subscribe, ding that notifications bell, I've done a full review of the likes of the Google Chromecast, the Fire TV Cube, all of that good stuff as well so go check that out to see some of the alternatives to the Streambar and have yourselves a lovely rest of the week Cheers everyone, love you!

Roku Streambar Review | Brilliant Budget Soundbar with 4K TV Streaming

 Now you'll notice here on the box it says 4k and it says HDR and it says HD and perhaps that causes you to think hey am I going to be able to view 4k content when I hook it up and the short answer is it depends. If you're hooking it up to a 4k capable television and you set the settings in the TV correctly sure you'll see 4k content that's broadcast in 4k but if you're not hooking up to a 4k capable television the resolution that you'll see is in HD which is 720p up to 1080. Roku also included a Roku remote and they included two batteries and you'll notice here on the remote they have the microphone symbol built in so you can use your voice to incorporate and work with Google Assistant, Apple, Apple Play, Apple's HomeKit, Siri and Amazon's Alexa. That could change as they've noted here on the side of the box

 Roku also included a Roku remote and they included two batteries and you'll notice here on the remote they have the microphone symbol built in so you can use your voice to incorporate and work with Google Assistant, Apple, Apple Play, Apple's HomeKit, Siri and Amazon's Alexa. That could change as they've noted here on the side of the box. Not all competing sound bars offer Bluetooth. The Roku stream bar does offer Bluetooth

 Now in a moment we'll go over some of the setting adjustments you're required to make in the television to make certain this setup goes properly. If your TV was not a 4k compatible TV or does not have an HDMI ARC, then we'll show you the other method now. The other method is as follows. However there are two choices you can make

 You can see Roku sound bar showed up. If you hooked up using the Toslink optical method there's one other step that you'll want to take care of and that is going into the menu settings of your TV again and looking for an option called audio, selecting that and you'll see in this case it says that our internal TV speakers are on so we want to turn them off and finally we want to go over how does the stream bar sound and we evaluated that based on three factors actually four. The first factor dialogue. On the box it says crisp clear dialogue and in our opinion yes they did get that right

Roku Streambar Review and How to Hook up to TV

 Soundbar that serves as single TV speaker and sounds decent? Yep (HDMI arc makes it easier). Expandable to be able to add wireless sub-woofer and surround sound speakers? Can do, but overall price can be hefty. Ethernet connectivity? Yes, but what a disappointment and pain (at least for me). Old freaking technology that impacts your network

Want to love this, but a bit frustrating since you think you are getting an updated piece of technology in 2021. 4K streaming? Check. Soundbar that serves as single TV speaker and sounds decent? Yep (HDMI arc makes it easier). Expandable to be able to add wireless sub-woofer and surround sound speakers? Can do, but overall price can be hefty

  We are keeping it just for the convenience, but not buying another or additional Roku components (sub-woofer/speakers) if this is not updated. Until then, the Roku Streambar is 2 stars.

 We got a cheap gigabit router (make sure the WAN port is gigabit), turn off the wifi on that router, and then connect the Roku Streambar USB-Ethernet adapter to that network. You can get dedicated wired gigabit Ethernet routers, but those tend to be more expensive. With this setup the sub-network will run at Fast Ethernet speeds, but at least your main network will continue at gigabit Ethernet speeds.  Based on all of this, Roku is packaging over 10 year technology with its USB 2

2 stars? Yes and keeping it since it works with an Ethernet cable (somewhat)!

 I know this demonstration is only going to sound as good as the speakers you're listening to this on and isn't going to give you the experience of what it's actually like listening to media on this device. But I hope you'll at the very least be able to hear a difference between the different devices. Here is what the built-in speakers of my mom's Samsung QLED TV sound like. That's it! I hope you found this video helpful and or informative in some way

 The remote control can also be programmed to turn your TV off and on, as well as control your TV's volume. So if you're a cord cutter, then most of the time the only remote you'll need is your Roku remote. Both soundbars support Apple AirPlay, so you can easily share photos, videos, and music from your iOS device to your TV. And since Roku is platform agnostic, it's compatible with Android devices too

 Just shy of two years ago, I made a video where I took a look at four of the most popular 4k streaming devices on the market. At that time, I didn't have much experience with Roku, but since then I've purchased several Roku products and have actually quit using Chromecast and have replaced all the streaming devices in our house with Roku devices. What can I say? I like their stuff! On a separate note, my mom bought a Samsung QLED TV about a year ago and ever since buying it, she's felt the speakers built into the TV are just too quiet. When her AC or heat come on, she has to turn up the volume to be able to hear it and the sound quality overall is just meh

 Both come with Roku's voice remote, which allows you to open apps and search for content by pressing and holding the microphone button on the remote and just simply telling the Roku what you want to do. Play Avengers Endgame on Disney Plus. The remote control can also be programmed to turn your TV off and on, as well as control your TV's volume. So if you're a cord cutter, then most of the time the only remote you'll need is your Roku remote

 Nice. So you buy this and you don't have to buy anything else. Everything is complete inside the box. So in order for me to test this speaker, I connected my Roku stream bar to my TV using eARC

 It comes with everything. Power supply, remote, even battery for the remote. Power cord, HDMI cable. Nice, and what's this? Oh, even optical cable

 Kablamo, it's there, right away. Let's say I want to open my favorite channel. Boom. There

Hear what you’ve been missing with the newly designed VIZIO V-Series™ 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar The V-Series 2.1 offers immersive sound, a sophisticated new look and HDMI connectivity for the highest-quality audio plus sound bar volume control from your original TV remote. For pristine clarity, two full-range speakers at 96dB SPL are tucked inside a subtly textured, all-black sound bar that stays clean and lives discreetly beneath the TV, while the included 5” wireless subwoofer adds deep, booming bass to movies and music. 4K HDR content is enhanced with Dolby Audio™ for the highest-fidelity sound, and DTS® Virtual:X™ sound enhancement adds room-filling, floor-to-ceiling virtualized 3D sound, placing you in the middle of the story or front row at your favorite concert venue. The new Voice Assistant Input gives you the convenience of a voice assistant you are already accustomed to (sold separately) and lets you operate it right through the sound bar for an upgraded audio experience. With its powerful sound and easy setup, the VIZIO V-Series™ 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar can help turn your living room into a captivating home theater.

If you're looking for an affordable bar with lots of thump and punch in the bass, check out the Vizio V Series V21-H8. It's a 2.1 setup like the Samsung HW-A550, but its dedicated subwoofer can reproduce a more extended low-bass, making it a solid choice for listening to bass-heavy music. There's even a subwoofer level control that lets you adjust how loud the subwoofer gets.

Its default sound profile is quite bass-heavy, so you feel the rumble in bass-heavy genres like hip-hop and EDM. The mids are still quite balanced, so dialogue in TV shows is clear and detailed. You also have some options available to help customize its performance, including bass and treble adjustments and a dialogue enhancement mode.

It lacks Atmos support, and its surround sound performance isn't the most impressive. You won't find a full graphic EQ, limiting your ability to adjust its sound, especially in the mid-range. Still, if you want a budget-friendly bar with a boomy bass, it's a good pick.

TechGearLab

While the very low price of the Vizio V-Series 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar V21-H8 had us momentarily questioning our ears, we can assure you this soundbar sounds better than several more expensive competitors, while offering a dearth of useful features and presets. There is a powerful subwoofer that Vizio recommends placing next to or behind the audience, where increased proximity to the rumbly bass makes for an exciting experience. Dialogue enhancement and night mode also make for a great viewing experience at lower volumes.
Though this model is solid for the price point, it can't hold a candle to the higher-end model in terms of overall sound quality. While powerful, the bass can sound muddy and overwhelm the rest of the mix. When we did turn the bass down, the weak mids and sometimes harsh treble became more apparent. This isn't too much of a problem when watching action films at high volumes, but it makes for a poor experience when using the soundbar to listen to music. Still, this soundbar is a monumental improvement over any built-in TV speakers, and if your bank account can't absorb a high-end sound system to pair with your newly acquired flat screen, the Vizio V-Series 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar is a very solid option.
