    It started out okay, install was a bit complicated, plug n play way better but for price a good deal. Now it doesn’t work so make sure to buy insurance.

    If you are not very about high end sound this is and OK cheap alternative. Do not expect great sound from any setup with small satellite speakers.

      Hello Beto, this sound bar has many settings that can be adjusted to allow for audio that may fit your needs better. I would ensure you are using a 5.1 audio type as this will provide you with the best audio into the sound bar. You can also adjust the Bass, Treble, Center and Surround setting to fit your room needs. VIZIO

    I own another Vizio soundbar (2.1) and needed to upgrade to get clarity with the dialog in programs. I found this sound bar's audio to be of poor quality overall. It also kept turning off and reverting to my TV speakers at random intervals. I thought this sound bar would be a good match to my Vizio 4k TV. I was mistaken. I returned it and am looking again.
