"........The streambar should be connected to an HDMI ARC port."

Oh really?
Then why is that not mentioned in your website for the Streambar?
Maybe something like, "When not connected to a HDMI ARC port the sound may sound like a blown speaker"!

No, instead your website states,
"4K streaming. Premium audio. All in one. Roku Streambar is the powerful 2-in-1 upgrade with 4K streaming and premium sound for any TV. Hear every detail as you stream your favorite entertainment in brilliant picture quality with crisp, clear dialogue. You’ll be amazed at how something so small can fill your room with sound. Setup is simple with everything you need in the box.

I LOVE the Roku platform, if you take a look at my account you'll see MANY different Rokus.
Unfortunately I do not love the Streambar.

Don't you mean "All these can be found in Settings > System > About"?

Had the Streambar for over a year now, has been great. 

Started getting sound distortion when turning on the TV (have eARC activated and everything set to auto), now have static/old dial up modem sounds coming from the Streambar even when it is on the Home screen with no apps loaded up.

Not found anything remotely like this on the discussions pages so far.

I have received an email from support asking for my shipping address and contact number. 

This has been replied to (via email as it did not appear in this thread), but as yet I have not heard anything else back from them.

Sound quality is always hit or miss with my streambar. Goes in and out, screeching noises, out of sync, you name it. Kinda ridiculous since this thing is barely 2 years old. Serial #: YL003F074121

Trying this forum first, then I’ll be calling customer service if this doesn’t get resolved.
