We initially were told that there was a system that had rear speakers that did not heed to be hooked up with wires. This was not true so we exchanged for the current system and it is working just fine. The speaker bar looks great in from of the TV we have the sub-woofer upright.

Outstanding sound, base in a compact design. Easy setup, have wireless base setup next to couch. Definitely makes a big difference during action movies. My Vizio tv was definitely lacking sound, this is a great addition

These are wonderfully looking soundbars, very small and compact, but don't let the size fool you. The sound is amazing and the subwoofer fits under my low to the ground bed to make a slight nauseous feeling if it hits too hard. I'm an audiophile and love that feeling....

Although this product has good reviews (hence me purchasing it) after further review, I realized it is plagued with issues where the subwoofer repeatedly disconnects. Mine is having similar issues. Upon contacting Vizio customer support, their response was that since my product was out of the 1 year warranty (by 2 weeks), there was nothing they could do to support. I understand if they are not willing to fix the product, but they were not even willing to provide any support with trouble shooting the issue. I will never buy another vizio product.

Thank you for your feedback. If you are experiencing the subwoofer disconnecting from the sound bar you can turn off Eco Power. This will prevent the sound bar from turning off after a period of inactivity and keep the connection the subwoofer on. This will also allow you to cast content to the sound bar without having to turn the sound bar on manually.

It's a compact and inexpensive system with exceptional audio. Bright crisp highs, and seriously thundering lows.
We tucked the sub under our wraparound sofa and it's a theatrical experience.

Excellent sound. Serious bass. Sub is a bit ungainly, but produces great room vibrating sound. Thinking of getting one for the TV on the porch.

Easy to set up and sync with TV. I have it with a Vizio M Class. Works well and programs easily. I have it in my bedroom and the sub fits perfect under the bed. I would recommend it.

I have a TV in a vaulted ceiling room, the tv speakers are useless. I purchased this soundbar combo based on size (subwoofer is GREAT) and cost. The sound is fantastic and fills the room. Makes watching movies extremely enjoyable!

I was really hesitant purchasing this sound bar. I have an older tv so connecting it was a challenge. The only way I got it to work was with the optic cable. unfortunately I have to manually turn it on and off and it would not mate up with the remote of tv. I was totally surprised with the sub woofer deep bass sound. It was narrow enough to place it between the couch and wall. The bass vibrates the couch enough to feel it thru your body..

I think this sound bar is great for the bed room. Low profile sub adds more of a modern appeal to the bedroom. Fills the room with plenty of bass. Casting is a added bonus and works great with my google home. Highly recommend.
