You’ve picked the perfect movie, your popcorn is ready, and your couch is feeling super comfy as you fire up your new TV. It’s movie time! You queue up Hollywood’s latest blockbuster and brace yourself. Then it hits you. Or, more accurately, it doesn’t hit you—the explosions sound puny, the dialogue is hard to understand, and the overall experience is underwhelming. This, my fellow streamers, is why the right audio setup is crucial to a proper home theater experience.
While newer TVs have made incredible advancements in image quality and size, this has generally come at the expense of audio capabilities. This is because as TVs have become thinner and more lightweight, there’s less space in their design for speakers. For a truly theatrical experience, you want as much of the original audio as possible. And for that, you’ll need a system that can reproduce a movie or show’s full range of sound, from the low growls and foot stomps of a Jurassic dinosaur to the out-of-this-world sounds of your favorite sci-fi flick.
But don’t fret! The days of needing a bulky, expensive hi-fi system and an audio engineering degree to set it up are behind us! Roku’s team of audio experts has developed premium audio products that are easy to set up and simple to use.
