Posted .Hello Dontbuy, as televisions continue to have larger screens with thinner profiles and sleeker bezels, there is less room for large speakers. To help get the best audio quality out of your VIZIO televisions speakers, we’ve included settings like DTS Studio Sound to provide the highest performance possible, while maintaining the thin, sleek, bezel-less profile of your television. If you’d like any help adjusting your audio settings feel free to contact VIZIO support at 844-254-8087. For top of the line audio performance, you may also look into purchasing a VIZIO Sound Bar, there are several models available with wireless subwoofers for enhanced bass, rear speakers for true surround sound, and our new line of Atmos Sound Bars.

Awesome
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After much research and rave reviews from BB and the J box store i was smitten. Wow - Amazing clarity and good bass, the fact that it has Hdmi -ARC is worth it, set up was easy it searched for the woofer and the tv remote. Wish it could be louder but at this price and features no more " what did they say" its crystal clear especially the Vampire and action movies, sports too- look just BUY IT !!!!!!!!

Excellent bang for buck sound system.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent bang for buck sound system. I did end up returning this because I wanted one with rear or surround speakers, but if you have a small space and are looking for a quality basic unit, this will work.

cesar soundbar.

Loud. Good Bass. Not muddy sounding.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing sound! The subwoofer gives some pretty decent bass and it is not muddy at all. It’s crisp bass. The sound bar is loud. The mid range is not tinny and it almost sounds like surround sound. I would recommend this for anyone that want a a good speaker system under 200 if you are not looking for surround sound sound

WOW!!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had bought an insignia 2.1 sound bar and sub and I hated it. The sound was awful until I purchased the vizio2.1. It is amazing and at a very good price. Next is the Vizio television. I would recommend this device if you do not want to spend a lot of Money.

The worst sound bar to exist
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not even joking. I’m still mad about this purchase years later. It would randomly turn itself all the way up in the middle of the night. Made me jump multiple times.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Fantastic Soundbar and subwoofer!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first ever Soundbar to own and I must say, after hooking it up today (which only took about 5 or so minutes) it sounds amazing! It reminds me of a movie theater type sound and the subwoofer has a great thump to it! It get extremely loud if you have the volume up full blast to wear it will almost hurt your ears. It has it to where you can adjust the level of bass, treble and subwoofer on the remote as well as a equalizer button that lets you pick from movie, music, game or dialogue. I’m currently watching the conjuring 2 after opening and setting it up and it’s just amazing honestly!

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this soundbar over 2 months now and its sound great..I was adjusting the volume and was wondering I think this subwoofer can give out more bass.I pressed the menu button pressed the down button and there it was tremble, bass,subwoofer functions..So now I'm in theater surround sound.What a big difference.5 stars
I would recommend this to a friendVolume up and downs
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is good but about every 3 to 4 minutes the volume goes down for about 10 seconds try different connections but still happens. Thouggt maybe the tv or the internet but then I tried the Bluetooth on my phone using the data and it still doing it. It's only a few hours old
I would recommend this to a friendGreat deal
