Roku sub + onn. Soundbar?

Can a tcl Roku tv connect to a onn. Soundbar purchased separately, that had an original sub that was Bluetooth connected ( pet destroyed the sub) 

 

can the Roku sub connect to tv along with Onn. Sound bar together? Or would they cancel eachother out?

    I believe only a Roku subwoofer will pair with a Roku TV. There should be no issue using a Roku TV and subwoofer with a soundbar of any brand. They won't "cancel" each other out as they really don't output the same frequencies. The TV will know the subwoofer is connected, so it will send to low bass to the sub and pass the rest on to the soundbar. That's the advantage of a Roku subwoofer on a Roku TV, it's smart enough to send the sounds where they belong.
