Roku Streambar Pro
Score: 70/100
LG S60T
Score: 79/100Rankings
The LG S60T is a 3.1-channel soundbar system featuring a wireless subwoofer, AI Sound Pro and a dedicated center channel for clear dialogue. Wireless connectivity can be inconsistent, and the remote's volume increments are coarse. Best suited for TV and movie enthusiasts who value dialogue clarity and immersive bass in a sleek package.
The Roku Streambar Pro is a 2-in-1 4K HDR streaming device and soundbar delivering 36 W of virtual surround sound with Wi-Fi and voice-assistant support. Its modest power and lack of Dolby Atmos limit cinematic impact, especially without the optional subwoofer. Best suited for apartments or dorm rooms where a simple, all-in-one streaming and audio upgrade is desired.

Professional reviewers praise the Streambar Pro's compact yet sturdy design, its seamless HDMI-ARC/optical connectivity, and the ability to stream 4K HDR content while delivering 36 W of virtual surround sound. They highlight the integrated voice-assistant support and USB media playback as added conveniences, but note that bass performance suffers without the optional subwoofer and that the modest power may not satisfy larger spaces.
Everyday users appreciate the ease of upgrading older TVs to 4K/HDR streaming and the noticeable boost in dialogue clarity and overall volume. The Bluetooth music streaming and voice remote are frequently mentioned as convenient features, while recurring complaints focus on thin bass, the need for an optical cable when HDMI-ARC isn't available, and the bar's length making it hard to fit in smaller cabinets.
Professional reviewers praise the S60T for its standout center channel clarity, noting that dialogue remains crystal clear even in high-action scenes. The AI Sound Pro technology is highlighted for automatically balancing dialogue and effects, while the combination of Dolby Audio and a wireless subwoofer delivers a cinematic soundstage with impactful bass.
Everyday users consistently commend the S60T for its excellent sound quality, deep bass, and easy setup. Clear dialogue is frequently mentioned as a major benefit, often eliminating the need for subtitles. Integration with LG TVs via a single remote is also praised, though some users report occasional wireless connectivity hiccups and coarse remote volume steps.
“Excellent value with combined streaming and sound upgrade.”
“Heavy and good looking.”
“One-cable ARC setup works great for me.”
