“Sound is an important part of the TV experience yet often
overlooked by consumers because of product complexities, choice and
price. Roku TV Wireless Speakers offer premium sound with no
hassle. Our sophisticated software powers both the Roku TV and the
Roku TV Wireless Speakers allowing us to offer a simple set up,
multi-dimensional sound with stereo separation, voice control and
much more,” said Mark Ely, vice president of whole home product
management at Roku. “We believe our Roku TV customers are going to
be thrilled with how easy the Roku TV Wireless Speakers are to use
and at the difference they hear when they watch and listen to
entertainment at home.”
Unlike traditional wired home theater systems, set up is simple
and clutter-free with wireless pairing to Roku TVs. Once paired,
users can listen to audio from any streaming channel on the Roku®
platform, live TV from an antenna, or other devices such as a cable
set-top box. The speakers also support Bluetooth® music streaming
from mobile devices.
TV and movie viewers can dramatically improve sound for TV,
movies, music and sports as Roku TV Wireless Speakers add broad
frequency response and offer a variety of volume leveling features.
Automatic Volume Leveling enables a uniform audio level across
various types of content, so it will no longer feel jarring when a
commercial comes on or when streaming channels are
changed. Night mode lowers the volume level for louder scenes
and boosts it for quieter ones and Speech Clarity looks for voice
frequencies and boosts them to address intelligibility.
Roku TV Wireless Speakers work exclusively with Roku TVs and
come with a Roku TV Voice Remote (an upgrade for many Roku TV
users) and the new Roku Touch™. The Roku Touch is a battery-powered
table-top remote that features a press-to-talk microphone button
and makes it easy to control music and more while not directly in
front of the TV. Place it in the kitchen, the entryway or patio for
quick access to music and entertainment including playback control
and programmable preset buttons.
