    it looked good under my sony tv sound was decent i returned this product because when ever you gamed or watched movies the sound from the front sound bar was okay but the action scenes or any thing that required the surround sound aspect would cause you to jolt up in your chair because in order to hear the voices of the tv show or movie or just anything i watched the sound was turned up to around 55-60 then the action surround sound effect came and way way to loud it was so annoying that i took this product back.

    Our original VIZIO soundbar went out, which was almost identical and only lasted 2 years . So far these sound crisper, but volume has to be all the way up to hear

    This gets the job done for better than TV sound, but the surround sound sometimes drowns out dialog or it isn't loud enough. I have tried adjusting it in the app but it is very hard to fine tune it.. Decent setup
