If you’ve never experienced good audio in your living room, you might not realize how bad your TV's speakers really are. The good news is that it’s actually easy to improve the audio coming from your TV—and perhaps the quickest and easiest (if not the cheapest) ways is to get a soundbar. And if you have a Roku TV, the expense won't even be that bad, because right now you can pick up the TCL Alto R1 sound bar for $49.99, or a full 75% off the original $199.99 price.

TCL Alto R1 sound bar $49.99 (was $199.99)
A powerful soundbar for Roku TVs (and Roku TVs only)
This is the lowest price the soundbar has reached according to Camelcamelcamel's price history. But if $50 price sets off your alarm bells, here's what your money gets you.
First, let me emphasize again that this soundbar is only compatible with Roku TVs. And that doesn’t mean you can install a Roku TV stick on your Fire TV and expect the soundbar to connect (it won’t). Another important point is that your TV must be on for the soundbar to work, so you can’t, for example, connect it to your phone and expect it to work.
The soundbar measures 2.5 by 31.5 by 3.9 inches and should easily fit under most TVs. It connects seamlessly to Roku TVs (setup should take less than five minutes). Once it’s connected, you can control it with your Roku TV’s remote and connect other Bluetooth devices to it through the TV’s menu, and you can pair it with another Roku wireless speaker, like the Roku Wireless Bass.
