A:AnswerYeah. My vizio soundbar works fine with my Samsung tv 7 series but sometimes, I need to unplug soundbar or eARC hdmi to get soundbar to reconnect. For low price and awesome sound, I'm ok!
A:AnswerMy tech had same issue with a Samsung using the hdmi-arc. Apparently the only solution was to turn off all hdmi-arc on tv and had to switch to optical cable from tv to soundbar.

A:AnswerIf your HDMI is connected properly then whatever device you are using should automatically change the input. When I am watching my Vizio TV my bar is in ARC. If I watch a movie on my Sony Blu Ray Player the bar switches over to HDMI IN automatically, I do not need to manually switch. Now it might depend on the setup of the device you are using which you connect to the bar. I just know that my system devices work automatically. The sound bar has on occasion lost its connection, so I use the bar's remote to switch on the bar and whatever device is running through is what the bar transmits.

A:AnswerHello condor86, for optimal performance and effect, we do recommend to have the speakers pointing up to ceiling as the Atmos effect relies on the ability to direct the audio above head.
A:AnswerHello Jaseela, Vizio TVs are designed and sold for use in U.S.A., Mexico, and Canada. Rather than measuring in wattage which is just a measurement of power draw, we measure soundbars in sound pressure level, or dB. This soundbar goes as loud as 101dB with a frequency response of 40Hz – 20kHz. Unfortunately I would not be able to advise on use of step down transformers.
A:AnswerThere is an aux in for a 3.5 mm hesdphone jack plug in back which would work for mp3 players and phones and any music source that uses them. U cant directly plug into the little speakers or woofer but the main bar via aux. U can also stream via amazon music or other music apps as well in app or via Bluetooth. The bluetooth is kinda spotty tho. There is also an optical out and hdmi out
A:AnswerNot sure, check with nvidia if u can hook up soundbars. You shouldnt be getting tearing. Check if motion interpolation is off. The tearing would be a picture issue and not audio so more likely its a problem occurring with a bad or poor quality hdmi cord. The included vizio one isnt very good so u will need a certified 4k high speed 1gbps cord. If that tv supports earc, maybe try to buy a hdmi 2.2 cable. Using Arc connection should cause no issues. Make sure tv is plugged directly into the wall socket, not a surge plug. U may want to try the same for soundbar if still occuring. If u havent check for the bar new firmware updates. If u have setup wifi before it only takes a button hold to do but if u havent set up bar with vizio app to commence update. U also want to switch setting of picture on tv to pc. Try clearingbtv cache with soft reboot. If all fails, try connecting via sounbar hdmi in port. The audio fails to switch over and involves some toggling but it works solid with consoles. U might have to adjust volume up and down snd switch inputs a couple to get audio working on that port.
A:AnswerWhat you are talking about and want is a reciever system and is much more expensive in range of 800 to 1000 usd for the whole setup whereas this is only 300 usd now which is a steal considering i paid $500 a few months ago. There arent any sounbar systems that allow additional speakers, not at this range. The celing won't matter at this range as atmos isnt that noticeable. As a high res audiophile and musician, this bar is more than sufficient. My ceiling has a 6inch wall bar on ceiling halway thru ian room that would seem to bloc any height effects from reaching me correctly but it still sounds good. Its not an issue. The satellite speakers and their placement seem to matter more as they lower in volume usually often have effects that make u think something past by u. But The movie has to be done right and most 5.1ch only sources are much better than most atmos content out there which is also very limited. Your tv will need atmos pass thru or atmos will only work for device connected to the 1 hdmi in port on this soundbar. You won't find atmos like setup at this range. If u want something with atmos cheap this is the only option. Next up would be $800 system by think their called Nakamachi? If u want to add speakers u already have, u should invest in a reciever system. If u want atmos on the cheap get this and save for better later
