I tried Roku’s cheap wireless soundbar and it sounds good – but with a catch

I recently tested the Roku Plus Series TV, a 4K QLED model that performs surprisingly well given its low price. As part of that review, I also checked out the company’s Roku TV Wireless Soundbar, a similarly low-cost option that the company designed specifically for use with its TVs, which are sold only in the US.

TV makers selling soundbars for use with their sets is nothing unusual – LG, Samsung, Sony, and others do the same – and some of these are good enough to earn a spot on our list of the best soundbars. What is unusual is Roku selling a model that only works with Roku-branded TVs. That's a shame because, like the Plus Series, it performs very well for the price.
