Please keep reading to learn more about soundbars in general and all the TCL Alto R1 can do to support your sonic experience at home.
What Is a Soundbar?
A soundbar is a loudspeaker that projects sound from an enclosed area or enclosure. Built wider than tall to allow for better audio transmission and projection, a soundbar is also easy to mount near, whether above or below, a television screen, stereo system, computer monitor, or home theater. The design for a soundbar system features multiple speakers inside a single cabinet to create a surround sound or stereo effect. You might also add a subwoofer to help support your soundbar if one does not come with your system.
Several Brands Sell Soundbars
While many of today’s big-screen televisions offer plenty of bells and whistles, you can’t always hear them as well, and you might need some assistance.
According to Consumer Reports, soundbars help boost modern televisions that lack the audio horsepower of older models. Some programming can survive with standard audio, but there are plenty of film scores and live concerts that demand amazing sound delivery.
A few brands providing soundbars include
Bose,
Klipsch,
Edifier,
LG,
Samsung,
Sony,
Sonos,
Vizio, and, of course,
TCL.
The TCL Alto R1 Wireless Soundbar
Many industry experts are excited about the release of the TCL Alto R1 Wireless Soundbar, which is the
first Roku Ready wireless soundbar and comes with plenty of features and no wires. That means there are no wires at all to connect the soundbar to your television. The power cable is another matter. The most exciting aspect for
Roku fans is that they can expect a seamless connection to their system. So, if you’re a Roku user, you might have already found a strong contender for your soundbar purchase.
Why Is the Roku Connection Important?
You might wonder why it helps to buy a soundbar specific to
your home entertainment system. The main reason is that it will help synchronize the two, eliminating any audio lag that causes an out-of-sync experience between audio and video. If you’ve ever seen film and audio out of sync, you’ll know how important it is to remove this possibility.
Another reason it’s so important is that you can integrate the TCL R1’s settings directly into your Roku TV user interface. That means you can make all adjustments with your Roku remote. You won’t need to scramble to find and keep up with more than one remote for your Roku and TCL R1. Just set your television set’s existing remote to control sound for both to experience better control, simple settings, audio settings, and automatic software updates.
TCL has its soundbar system ready to ensure that the setup is a breeze, allowing you to plug it in to a power outlet and let your Roku TV do the rest.
