    Constant Issues

    I like the look, the rotating speakers are cool, and the sound, when working is perfect for me (I'm no audiophile). However, getting to sit and actually enjoy the sound is almost impossible. I have been using for a week and paired with a TCL 65Q825 and have encountered the following issues: 1. Flickering screen when watching xfinity with connection via earc (this was not an issue when I connected the xfinity xi6 box directly into one of the other HDMI inputs on the soundbar) 2. Fluctuating volume levels depending on what channel I'm watching (have to crank up almost to max in order to hear clearly 3. Low volume when using streaming apps like Netflix, Youtube, etc. Volume when watching Dolby Atmos content on Disney+ seemed to be okay 4. Loud crackling of speakers when I switched the audio settings on my TV to auto passthrough The first thing I did when I set up the soundbar was update the firmware. I did another check a couple of days ago and my firmware remains up to date. I am "upgrading" from an old LG soundbar, and while it doesn't sound as good and have very many features, it at least works! I am going to try and reach out to Vizio support and ask for help, but if I don't get anywhere, I'll be returning, which is unfortunate because I really want to love and keep this soundbar.

    Great bang for the buck. Have a theater in the basement so I just wanted something super simple for the living room. This things bangs. Sub can rattle the floor and the clarity is Raju good for a sound bar.

    Love my Elevate. It has just the right sound features for surround sound. I have to normally keep the bass and subwoofer down in the apartment otherwise it will shake the windows.

    The sound was fantastic for the cost conoared to the high end bars from samsung and sony such as the ht-a7000. However after a about two months the rear sub and speakers cut in and out every minute or so making it difficult to enjoy movies and games. The location of speakers never changed when this issue occured

    It is worth every penny of $999. Sounds incredibly clear and the atmos implementation is on point. Vizio has made a masterpiece of a sound bar. It’s looks perfect paired with my 65” Vizio OLED too.

    I upgraded from the Vizio 5.1 surround sound and it's such a difference from that. If you're upgrading from built in TV speakers there's really no comparison, it's night and day.

    I you are reading reviews to see if its worth it. It is. We wouldve returned immediately if it wasnt. Awesome sounds. We were watching a scary movie and could hear the creepiest sounds from the sides. It makes watching at home feel like a theatre experince. We first bought the cheaper version and thought it was ok. This was another level of killer sound. So enjoyable. A must if youre a gamer, an avid movie watcher and you enjoy being on the edge of your seat.

    Great soundbar system with one flaw

    The sound is fantastic. Love the Atmos functionality is excellent (if a bit of a gimmick). Huge upgrade to any TV speakers. My only gripe is the mounting tools/process. It sucks. Not only is the hardware too weak (the soundbar sags), but the anchors/screws sucked and came out of my wall. With a better mount, this would be 5 stars! BTW, I think Atmos is a gimmick, not the way its implemented here. I actually think the motorized ends are super cool!

    Great sound, happy with the purchase. I have several sound bars, but this is the best one yet. Wish I had gotten it when it was on sale for $699.00, but I am still pleased even though I paid more.

    I haven't been this "blown away" since I first saw a color tv! Serious sound here...Even the news sounds great but when you switch to film you are thinking WOW...but then when you watch a film in Atmos... this takes it to a whole new level of WOW!!!! Just mind-blowing all the way. Clear crisp and deep bass that you feel in your body. The sound is everywhere...the bass is everywhere. The beauty of the system is beyond stunning. I jumped up in price and waited patiently for the release of this bombastic piece of WOW. It was all worth it. Just do it!
