||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the 2nd sound bar I've purchased from Vizio. It worked great for about 2 months, then it died completely. I love Vizio TV's, but the soundbars are crap.

Not Impressed
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was not too impressed with this soundbar. At first it worked well and then it would stop working at the oddest times. I would have to reset it. After a while it would not reset. Save your cash

HORRIBLE STATIC’n
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally had the geek squad over for a different reason. I have about 4 sound bars in my house. One of the Geek Squad’s technicians had to go into my bedroom because that is where the router is. With no question from me, he says, “you should get THIS sound bar. It will sound so much better. So... I did. THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST SOUND BAR EVER!!!! I tied to return it, but they would not let me. First of all...WHO ASKED FOR HIS OPINION IN THE FIRST PLACE. Of course I take full responsibility for actually “buying” it... BUT IT SUCKS!!!!!

Posted .Sorry to hear that you're having crackling. Have you tried connecting the sound bar with a different cable? While it's possible that there's a problem with the sound bar, cords/cables with frayed ends can also cause audio crackling. If you'd like any assistance, you can reach out to our customer service team by visiting support.vizio.com and clicking on 'Contact Us'.

poor connection, remote
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.remote does not work consistently even with changing new batteries. particularity if you keep speakers on continuously remote does not work. so if you want to connect Bluetooth with TV , you have to remove power plug from speaker and connect again to make remote work again each time. many program does not support optical output. so you have to connect Bluetooth. another headache is you have connect Bluetooth each time you turn TV back on manually with two remotes. It does not get connected automatically. Lot of time wasting.

Broke
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Malfunctioned after 1st use. Have no idea why. I don't think it was user error because we got another sound bar that we were able to hook right up and use, no problem.

Died after 2 months
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Didn't need much, just wanted better sound from my "downstairs tv". I already had a wired subwoofer with an RCA connection and this bar has an RCA out for a sub connection. Also, it will fit beneath my 43" Vizio tv. Sounded great! (comparatively speaking) After using it for approximately 2 months, I turned on the television and... nothing. No sound, no power light, nothing. Due to my previous interactions with Vizio products, I'm going to believe I got a "lemon".

Posted .Hi Hoot. That's very odd, our sound bars are designed to have room filling audio- and turning the volume clear up usually results in 'extremely' loud audio. If you could go to support.VIZIO.com and click on 'Contact us' or support team would appreciate the chance to ask you a few questions and get to the bottom of this.
