Don’t Do It
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was good until it wasn’t. I had this sound bar connected to a projector and it worked for 2-3 months. Now it cuts out every 30 seconds to a minute. I’ve checked the wires. I’ve reset all settings. I’ve unplugged it. The only thing left is to pray over the thing because it ain’t worth nothing if it continues to cut out while watching an intense movie.

- Pros mentioned:Sound quality
Sound cuts out all the time to the subwoofer.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only gave it a 2 because I love the sound, however, did the recommended firmware update to eliminate the disconnection and delay of sound to the speakers and subwoofer and it still persists.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Good sound with an annoying glitch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In most cases this product works great, but occasionally during quiet scenes in movies the surround sound speakers will turn on/off create an annoying effect where background noise comes and goes. I even received a replacement product from Vizio and the same thing still happens. I'd recommend looking elsewhere if you are interested in the surround sound aspect of this product.

Great for a while...
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have had this sound system for about 5 months and it worked great till a couple days ago when the bar started to randomly loose signal with the subwoofer. Now we are playing the game of where can we put the subwoofer so the bar communicates while also not having cords run all through my living room.

Audio frequently cuts out
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound constantly cuts out when watching movies with DD. Also there are random static sounds that occur from time to time but that isn't frequent and can be overlooked but when watching movies the audio keeps cutting out about every 20 to 30 seconds almost making the movie unwatchable. Unless that is fixed I do not recommend this sound bar.

Troubles after 1 year
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked great for 1 year and then the rear speakers started cutting out. Tech support tried a few things but did not fix it. The soundbar was 2 weeks out of warranty and they would not help me with a new system. So sad for a company like Vizio to have such little grace to just make it right. So buyer beware, plan on getting extended warranty or use credit card which adds it on automatically because Vizio will drop you like a bad habit the day after warranty.

1.1.0.7 Firmware Update does NOT fix audio issues!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Rear speakers cut out during quiet voice scenes EVEN AFTER the Firmware update 1.1.0.7 recently released by Vizio. You can scroll down and read all the 1 and 2 star reviews showing the issue. Also you can google the issue which has been around since July 2020 and they just recently released a firmware "fix" that does nothing after updating unit.
