NAJLPESZY SOUNDAR PRO
During testing, we sat 10 feet from the TV and Streambar Pro setup. Those small but mighty speakers aptly tackle low, mid and high tones, adding vibrancy to the traditionally flat sound that a TV delivers.
NAJLPESZY SOUNDAR DRIVERS
Tucked behind the fabric front cover are four 2.5-inch full-range drivers to push out the sound, and they’ll certainly catch your attention. And the compact design (32 inches long, just under 3 inches tall, to be exact) is the perfect size it’s never dwarfed by TVs pushing 60-plus inches, nor does it overwhelm smaller TVs. We appreciated that, though, as the Streambar Pro doesn’t fight for attention like some of the other flashier soundbars we tested. The Streambar Pro’s plastic build, enveloped by soft mesh on the front, lacks a certain flair. This allows you to use the Roku remote to control volume levels and the power status of your TV using the included Roku remote. You should connect the Streambar Pro to your TV’s HDMI eARC port if it has one. You’ll just need to give the Streambar Pro power and connect it to your TV. You truly get everything you could possibly need in the box, minus the TV.Īll in all, it was incredibly easy to set up. Also included in the box are two AA batteries for the remote, a power cable, an HDMI cable and an optical cable. So what’s changed besides the name? The Streambar Pro now comes with an upgraded Voice Remote and a pair of wired earbuds that can be used with the new remote to privately and quietly listen to your show while a roommate or loved one sleeps nearby. For instance, as we’re writing this, we’re watching “Cast Away,” a classic, for free. That means you get access to countless streaming platforms (like Disney+, Netflix, HBO Max and Peacock, among others) and Roku’s own Channels lineup that has shows and movies available to watch for free. Think of the Streambar Pro as a Smart Soundbar 1.5, just by a different name.Īnd for the same $179.99 you get a 2-in-1 soundbar that pairs audio with Roku’s streaming platform. Roku is in the process of streamlining its product families and released what amounts to be a slightly upgraded Smart Soundbar under the Streambar Pro name. On paper, the Streambar Pro doesn’t raise the bar (forgive the pun) when compared to the Smart Soundbar, but that’s by design. And in 2021, the Streambar Pro picks up right where the Soundbar left off, once again earning our top nod. In 2020, the Roku Smart Soundbar was our top pick for best soundbar. But another area in which Roku continues to shine is with its audio lineup. There’s no question Roku has solidified its place as one of the top streaming device makers around. Roku's Streambar Pro replaces the Smart Soundbar.
