Great bass + horrible treble = unheard dialogue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are a great value; however, I could not understand any of the dialogue. Even after fiddling with the sound settings multiple times, the best I could get was a thin, tin-y, metallic sound that was impossible to hear over bass. When I unplugged the bass and rear speakers, the sounds wouldn’t register with the television correctly and it created a horrible echo. I have it three stars because for the sound effects on Star Trek, The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Godzilla, etc. it sounded amazing. But, as movies are about more than lasers and the sound of war, following exposition dialogues were impossible. I had really wanted to like this, but for me it just doesn’t work.

Posted .Hello JWinters, thank you for taking time to leave us your feedback. Based on your description of the horrible echo, it sounds like the TV speakers might be enabled as well as getting the audio from the sound bar. This is what typically causes an echo when using a sound bar. We’d really love for you to speak with our customer service team. They’ve got a few questions about the devices you have connected, and what settings are currently set to. They’re available through text message, chat, or over the phone. Just go to support.VIZIO.com and click on ‘Contact Us’.

Good budget Atmos.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are bolder Dolby Atmos set-ups at a higher price for sure, but at the low cost I got this for, it packs a punch.

Easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My previous experience with an older sound bar and subwoofer package was alright but I had to turn the TV volume off because of a slight delay. I was more happy than I expected when it auto connected to my TV through the HDMI. I love the auto switch when it senses a device activating.

Great for the Money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.while it sounds great, the bar itself has a tendency to....fall out of sync? there are times where i lower the volume to what should be 0 but i can still hear sound...turning the unit off and on seams to resolve this but a minor annoyance.

Perfect for an RV
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installed this in a motorhome. The small size and wireless subwoofer with surround speakers make it perfect for small spaces. Don't expect cinema thundering bass out of this 6" subwoofer. In all reality a 6" speaker is far from a subwoofer. You will hear low Hz with that speaker, but it is what it is. If you want a soundbar that has great bass and IMHO and higher quality sound, go with the JBL. But the JBL was just too large for the RV. With that being said, this Vizio will serve the purpose. Camping has never been so much fun!

Less than stellar performance
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds great… when it works. Planning to catch up on a show while enjoying your breakfast? Hope you set aside time to fiddle with the dumb thing, between audio problems and input. For the first few days, you can expect the sound bar to “forget” how to produce audio when there’s a silence. It’ll then work fine for a while before it inevitably needs a factory default because nothing appears on the TV.

Great sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Price is a little bit steep at $500, but remember it's got 4 more speakers than the 5.1 sound bar. Setup is simple and it works great when paired with the right equipment.
