Re: Roku Streambar Audio Distortion

Jump to solution

I am having issues with my Roku Streambar as well. (YL0023317654)

This is my second Streambar. The first one developed a buzz/blown speaker after 84 days of use (<3 months, Walmart told me when I returned for replacement). I was watching Godzilla - I never turned it up past 50 as my normal viewing distance is 3 to 5 feet due to space limitations.

I took more care with this current (2nd) device, hardly ever turned it up past 35, never past 50; left the sound on either "reduce bass" or "normal". Again, 3 months later - this time just over Walmart's 90 return policy - the device developed an annoying buzz and rattle like a blown speaker. I followed the advice from the boards to reset the sound, change the sound settings, etc. Honestly, it's basically become unusable.

I connected it as a soundbar for my computer where I can control the levels better, but this is not a solution as it is still "blown" with distortion across the bass and mid-range.

Love the Roku service, having a single device is very convenient. Please help. Thanks!

Re: Stream bar speaker blown on right side our sound bar

About two months after buying my stream bar I had the same right speaker issue. I was minutes away from grabbing my sawzall and cutting that thing in half so I could at least hear one speaker until I ran across this thread.  The muffled sound is so bad and loud I can’t even use it really. Please help me out as well.
