    I truly enjoy this sound system. I have a small living space. However this system is so powerful, you would think we were in the movie theater. I love the fact that this system supports Dolby Atmos. I would definitely buy again!

    I replaced an older Vizio Soundbar with this one. I didn't think I would get better sound with a smaller Soundbar, but it is better. The sub is also stronger than I would have thought. It is a great purchase!

    Sound is crisp and hits well. The sub was already connected and its slim design let's it be set up almost anywhere. The Atmos sound design is mind blowing and this inexpensive setup is no exception.

    This soundbar fits fairly perfectly with my 43" M series in a small room. If you have doubts about the subwoofer, you can put those to rest, the thing can hit (although perhaps not the most precise? I'm no audiophile). The main thing about this soundbar is that it can instantly make you wish you'd gone for 5.1.2 or 5.1.4. Atmos decoding really does make a difference, but the actual effect is limited in the 3.1.2 config. It's not so much a "surround sound" system, but instead you should view it akin to the difference between mono and stereo, only vertically oriented. Stereo Version 2, perhaps. A nicer way of putting it is that this soundbar sounds good enough that I kinda would've liked to have known how the beefier versions sound. But a full surround setup is impractical in the 11x12 room this is in. I recommend the 4k version of Blade Runner (1982), the Directors Cut, with Atmos. That movie's audio is (re)masterfully done, and really showcased the potential of even this 3.1.2 configuration.

    The sound is incredible when it works. It disconnects all the time. Certain ports have issues randomly. WiFi connection never works anymore with the garbage app. Do not buy this. Spend the extra money on different brand or skip Dolby Atmos and spend similar on different brand.

    Purchased this for my smallish office/man cave where I didn't have enough space for a full 5.1 or 5.1.2 setup. Awesome sound in a relatively small package.

    Vizio continues to offer good products at a mid-range price. In this case the 3.1.2 soundbar offers excellent sound, but some of it's advanced features don't work as advertized. My biggest complaint with this product is that I cannot get it to join my network as advertised. I have downloaded the Vizio app for my Android phone (also have tried with an Apple phone) and followed the setup instructions for both wifi and bluetooth setup. I have this same issue with the 5.1.2 bar that I have also purchased.

    I absolutely love the sound. It makes my room sound like the movie theatre. The only reason I won’t give it 5 stars is because the setup was ridiculously hard.the app that’s needed to adjust Eq is terrible but overall I’m happy with my purchase.

    Clear voice and surprisingly decent bass from that small sub. Atmos works but not that impressive but for the price it was expected. Sounded better in a room then out in the living room.

    Boyfriend preferred surround sound-system but I purchased this for him after much research and gave to him for Father's Day. He loves it!! It has a good bass sub woofer and gives a good spread of sound for a large livingroom.

    A Decent Quality Soundbar From Vizio

    I replaced my Pioneer Soundbase with this soundbar from Vizio. Overall I'm happy with it, but there are always a few caveats. The mobile app does not work... PERIOD! After a few days of struggle, I called Vizio and was told to set it up via the provided remote. That worked great, and it's functioning as anticipated. Does it sound as good as the Andrew Jones designed Pioneer unit, probably not. There's definitely more bass, but the treble on the now discontinued Pioneer was better. It gets good reviews, that's why I bought it (on sale). Should I have bought the Sonos ARC soundbar and Subwoofer for $1,400? I don't watch TV that much to need anything quite so expensive, I'll give it a qualified recommendation.

    If you are looking for a nice compact sound bar that sounds as good as most of the big boy/expensive sound bars... this Vizio model is probably as good as it gets. Really impressed with what this thing can do. I only turn it up maybe 30% and the thing is rocking the house!! Great thumping subwoofer too. I'm using this in a bedroom, but this Vizio sound bar could fill a larger room easily. Great bang for the buck Vizio!!

    Dolby Atmos is one of those new surround technologies that have been around for a few years but has been really expensive. Those prices are starting to come down and for the price you can get this Vizio, its an incredible package. Speech is nice and clear from every channel, the Sub does get bumping and while you can't expect to get theater level Dolby Atmos from a sound bar at this price point, let's be perfectly honest, this sound bar does the job admirably. I highly recommend.

    Had a great sound. Made the house rumble, which I love! But it would disconnect from the tv once or twice a day. I would have to cycle through all the inputs to get it to work again. After awhile I started to get popping sounds with more bass. I took it back and ordered something different.

      Hi Shawn, Typically if you are having to cycle through the inputs to get the audio back maybe a issue with the cable connection, Have you tried another type of cable or device? We’d really love to assist you in getting to the bottom of this problem and making sure you can enjoy your VIZIO. May contact us at 1-855-833-3221 VIZIO
