Don’t throw out the old telly just yet

Roku Streambar Pro: A Sound and Picture Upgrade

We’ve talked about adding a streaming stick to your old non-smart TV to give it a smart facelift.
Things like Google Chromecast and Amazon Firestick are a quick and easy way to get smart for just a few dollars.

​

Now Roku has put together a smart soundbar. So this baby is a major upgrade to your tele giving it smart performance with access to all the streaming options as well as a lift in sound that can only be described as instrumental. This soundbar gives any tele a much needed sound lift and lays on some virtual surround sound to boot giving you theatre quality sound.

Sound Performance:
While not a dedicated audiophile system, the Streambar Pro offers impressive sound for its size. Dialogue is clear, and there's a decent amount of bass without overwhelming the mix. While it doesn't match the immersive experience of high-end soundbars with multiple speakers, it's a significant upgrade from built-in TV speakers.

4K Streaming:
The integration of Roku's streaming capabilities is a major plus. With access to a vast library of apps and channels, you can enjoy your favourite shows and movies in stunning 4K resolution. The user interface is intuitive, making navigation effortless.

Value Proposition:
At its price point, the Roku Streambar Pro offers excellent value. It's a versatile solution for those looking to improve both the audio and visual performance of their TV without spending a fortune.

Shop around for a good price around $400AU if you’re keen.
