    Thanks for the post.

    For clarification, are the Onn wireless speakers and subwoofer Roku branded, or just from Onn?

    With more detailed information, we will be able to assist you further.

    Thanks for the post.

    When connecting the Roku TV Wireless Speakers, the sound will be disabled from the Roku TV.

      I have a TCL Roku TV model number 40s325 that I have been unable to get both speakers to pair 9020r2’s. I make sure the TV had the latest software.  
       

      does appear it gets through 60% of the speaker update trying to pair crom thr rolu menu.  One speakerLED stops flashing ….of the two but it never gets past a full pairing which looks like it stalls on the second speaker update.  Both speakers are close to the TV and I’ve tried resetting and plugging them in as well as the TV on and off a few times to start over  

      If you have any other ideas I would prefer not to return these to Amazon is not working

    You need the soundbar and the technology has to be up to date the soundbar is what makes it all work. Connect your soundbar to Bluetooth tv setting then automatically everything else will pair the soundbar acts as the host that’s how everything else works
