Customer Ratings & Reviews

Quick and easy to set up. Great value for price. Has better sound than some of the more top of the line brands.

For over six years I used the Sony HT-CT800 sound-bar in my master bedroom. Since it didn’t come with the surrounds, I had to buy a pair of Sony ZR5 wireless speakers for the rear surrounds. I will not lie; the sound was impressive. There were two issues with this setup though. The high total cost of this combination; and the fact that every time I decided to watch a movie or tv show in my bedroom, I had to go into its setup menu to re-establish the connection to the rear surrounds, in order to fix the suddenly muted volume. Tired of this issue, I decide to go with something much less complicated to setup and use. I wasn’t expecting too much from the Vizio V-series 5.1 soundbar, given the compactness of the wireless subwoofer, and its 5 inch driver. I quickly got it set up, opting to use a small rug to cover the surround speaker wires routed under my bed to the speakers on either side of the headboard. Vizio has cleverly made the connection of the wired surrounds to the wireless subwoofer. This means that placing the subwoofer closer to the listening area solves the problem of the limited reach of the color coded surround speaker cables. Once the sound-bar was turned on, “searching” was vocalized in a loud and clear male voice. The remote, is instantly user-friendly, with its simple layout hiding a host of features, such as bass level, equalizer settings for Movie, Music, or Dialogue, as well the level settings for the individual channels of the surround system. The night mode allows clear sound at low volumes without disturbing the neighbors. The sound quality overall is incredible for this price point. I usually use the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan to calibrate my surround setups as I consider it the benchmark of any home theater test. I was not disappointed. This sound-bar has very good steering as the on camera scene rotates in movies, switching seamlessly from the front channel to the rears and back. Bullets whizz by crisply though my room, and mortar shells can be heard whooshing from behind to explode with a booming explosion at the far front of the scene. At the store, the demo music was not bad for a sound bar either. Overall, my only regret is that I hadn’t bought this sooner. As one reviewer stated, it has cinema quality, at a matinee price.

Sounds very good for it’s price. Just as good, it is very easy to connect, sync and use. It works with the factory Samsung remote (my tv is a Samsung) however some apps don’t work as well as they’re supposed to. One such app is Disney+, every time an episode ends or you want to select something else to watch, an ungodly electronic noise comes from the unit until something else comes on or the sound bar is shut off. While the subwoofer sounds good at moderate to lower volume levels, it really struggles if you crank up the volume. It bottoms out and really rattles like crazy. It does this at lower volume if whatever you’re listening too is bass heavy. Also of note (not necessarily a bad thing, you decide) the two surround speakers aren’t wireless with their own power source, they MUST be connected to the center speaker unit which can limit where they can be placed.

I got this for $199. Vizio gets great ratings for their soundbars on various techy websites. This one comes with a 3-speaker main soundbar, which is awesome for amplifying voice tracks. It also includes a 5” subwoofer, which surprisingly rocks our livingroom (14-foot vaulted ceiling). And it has two small rear satellite speakers which hook into the subwoofer for some pretty decent surround sound. The box includes ALL necessary hookup materials, including cables for all options (HDMI, optical and whatever the 1980s version is). It also includes wall-mount hardware if you choose to do that. And every component bag is labeled so you know what is what. This is the way it should be done! For $200 or $250, I highly recommend this soundbar setup!

Awesome soundbar with excellent sound quality. The Wireless Bass is great, will definitely make your house Rumble. Will definitely recommend to anyone.

Works great! Love the base and the surround sound. One down side i have noticed is when you turn the volume up or down it does not show the numbers on the tv but it does have bars that show on the sound bar uts self. But other then that this product is great if you want your room to feel like a theater.

Easy to instal , sounds great, pretty good price too.

Great sound options, I like the remote, easy to install and tweak. Amazing soundbar for the price

Me & my husband are so use to getting the big surround by sound systems that we never once looked at a sound bar , Suprisingly this sound bar came with a sub woofer , was very affordable and actually sounds very good . I would recommend this too anyone , the speakers are Bluetooth so you don’t have to worry about a mess of wires ! That’s a plus

This sound bar system was super easy to set up and the quality of it is awesome. It’s so loud you feel like you are in a movie theater!! We upgraded from a sound bar to this surround system well worth it

Amazing sound and can make movies, and music much more enjoyable. The treble is nice a crisp, and has a fully adjustable equalizer so you can crank the bass up for those action packed movies or to keep your party jumping all night long to your favorite songs. If you dont want to break the bank but want that quality sound, go get this for your home. This was a must have after purchasing the Samsung Q70. I'm giving it a 5 out of 5

The sound on this was great. It was loud. Very easy setup. Only reason I returned it was because I wanted wireless speakers to get rid of a lot of the cords. So I ended up getting a Polk surround sound system. This one sounds good though.

Super happy woth the sound quality! Easy set up, and easy bluetooth link!

Best surround for the price. Excellent sound and appearance. Easy to operate. Nice strong bass with crisp highs.

This is a great affordable system that paired perfectly with my Vizio P series tv (wired through HDMI Arc). I managed to get it when it was on sale for $149.99. This was an upgrade from my old sony surround sound system that was 10+ years old that only had 1 optical in so I had to use an optical switch for all my devices. Setup was easy and wow so many less cables / wires required than my old system. Also was able to ditch the universal remote and only use the vizio tv remote which now also controls the sound. First thing I watched I had a "wow this is what surround sound was supposed to sound like" moment. If you are like me and contemplating an upgrade and it's on sale I definitely recommend it.

Great sound and bass with this system, bluetooth connects easily and quickly and easy and painless to set up!

This is one best sounds systems out there not only is it ridiculously loud but after a few years it’s still working brand new you can never go wrong with buying at Best Buy they make purchasing electronics smooth and not a hassle 10/10 recommend

Great sound quality and great value. Got on sale. Easy set-up. Somehow “poor” is listed below under quality and can’t seem to remove it. It is very good quality.

For the price, worth it. Movies and gaming sound is great. on this thing. Set up was pretty easy, the wires are very easily hidden around my room making everything look neat. Quality feels solid too, nothing feels cheaply made, slick design easy to clean. Multiple output options, so in case you don't have HDMI for some reason, you should be covered. The cons: This is a very casual speaker, if you are an audiophile, and want to get maximum sound quality for music... it's not as good for that. But if you just want more oomph to your sound when watching movies, this is worth it.

Good sound. Excellent value for a 5.1 system. We love hearing the subwoofer and rear speakers. Works seamlessly with my 86 in LG tv
