What do I need to best enjoy my home theater system?
There are three components you need to get the most out of your home theater system: access to streaming content, a quality TV and a quality sound system.
Streaming devices
This is Amazon’s most powerful streaming stick. It features faster starts, support for next-generation Wi-Fi 6, 4K streaming and support for Dolby Vision, HDR, HDR10+ and immersive Dolby Atmos audio. If you still need to make your TV compatible for streaming, this is a great way to go.
The setup for the Roku involves three simple steps: plug it in, connect to the internet and stream. The remote even has shortcut buttons that take you directly to streaming services. For convenience, the system works with Siri, Alexa and Google Assistant.
