The Roku Streambar SE 2-in-1 TV Soundbar will upgrade your TV’s streaming and audio with a small, easy-to-use bar. This 2-in-1 unit features premium speakers, a dedicated bass port, and built-in Roku 4K streaming, and it fits easily under nearly all TVs. Its enhanced speech clarity feature is designed to help you understand what people are saying in busy scenes, and it supports HD, 4K, and HDR content, so compatible programs can look and sound better simultaneously. If you need a simpler way to achieve improved sound quality and a single streaming interface without cluttering a room with devices, this may meet your needs.
A smart streaming device fused with a soundbar
Integrated Roku streaming makes the StreamBar into a complete streaming player with a single app home screen. You can access services such as Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, and YouTube directly from the bar; no need to switch your TV input or reach for another device. Streaming resolutions at 4K (with HDR) allow compatible content to appear sharper and more vibrant than regular HD on supported TVs. Plus, since the streaming hardware is located within the bar, you’ll have one less HDMI port used by external equipment.
Sound comes from two internal speakers, working with a dedicated bass port to deliver more powerful, punchy low-frequency sound than the average flat TV speaker. Roku’s enhanced speech clarity feature amplifies dialogue, so voices remain prominent, even when background music and sound effects increase in volume. This emphasis on mid-range detail can help follow rapid-fire conversation more easily without increasing overall volume, particularly in action-oriented TV programs where voices often get lost in background noise.
Setting up the Streambar SE is designed to be simple and quick. Connect it to your TV using either an HDMI cable or optical audio connection, power it on, and select your wireless network. A remote control is included and lets you control your TV (power it on/off, adjust volume, etc.) as well as navigate your streaming apps. Additionally, Bluetooth connectivity lets you pair your headphones or stream music directly to the speakers. The bar also functions with Alexa voice commands when paired with a compatible Alexa-enabled device. Finally, you can purchase the optional Roku Wireless Bass subwoofer to enhance your system’s low-end sound. At the current sale price of $79, reduced from $100, you can get an affordable device to improve the audio quality from your TV and the video streamed to it.
