Roku Launches a New Subwoofer and a Streaming Box

— September 12, 2022 — Tech
Roku has just rolled out its newest tech offerings, sharing a brand new subwoofer and a new streaming box designed to elevate your TV’s sound and quality. The Roku ‘Wireless Bass’ is a wireless subwoofer that can be placed anywhere in your home to boost your Roku’s sound quality. This offering is only compatible with Roku products (Roku Streambar, Roku Wireless Speakers, or the Roku TV Wireless Soundbar) and is priced at $130 USD.

Additionally, Roku has also offered up the new ‘Roku Express,’ a streaming player that offers 1080p streaming quality and dual-band WiFi for stable internet when watching. This product is ideal for consumers who have low-end televisions that do not offer high-quality picture. The ‘Roku Express’ will also feature new hardware from the new Roku OS 11.5 update, which adds Bluetooth connectivity for headphones, updated visual search results, improved voice search, save lists, and more.
