Customer Ratings & Reviews

Using this with my Visio TV has completely changed our viewing experience. The subwoofer is wireless and the rear speakers connect to it. It provides an awesome bass experience that you can feel. If you haven't experienced surround sound, you are missing out on what movies and TV shows are created to do. I would highly recommend this product. You won't be sorry!

Love the device, 2nd one we purchased in two years. We moved the first one to the living room. Love having surround sound and the enjoyment of clear audio! Very easy to install, wouldn't go without one moving forwards.

The Visio SmartCast 5.1 sound bar makes listening to movies, shows and music much more enjoyable. Dialogue is clearer. The bass adds richness to the sound. It was easy to set up and arrived quickly and safely packaged. The subwoofer fits nicely under the couch and the speakers are compact. Very satisfied with purchase.

Can't help but fall for this sleek and stylish lil smacker! Not only is the system powerful it's also a must have for people that don't need all of the clutter because the base fits perfectly under your couch! Sure it was a little pricey but I understand it's because of all the bells and whistle this little guy has including Google Cast!

This complements our 70” Vizio 70” home theater tv screen in our den, excellent sound but sometimes we have to re-link it to the tv.

I should first say that I replaced the two rear speakers not because the supplied speakers were any way inferior, but rather I wanted speakers that would mount into my ceiling. With that being said, the speaker system pack a punch. The soundbar sounds amazing and the deep rumble from the base on intense scenes leaves me feeling like I'm at an IMAX theater. The setup was easy, although I recommend using an HDMI cable over the optical sound cable provided. I highly recommend this budget friendly system and feel that it can easily hold its own against name brands such as Bose

Sound is amazing. Easy to set up. When switching between Bluetooth and Hdmi-Arc it gets annoying because it doesn't recognize what you're trying to do right away so you have to keep scrolling to Bluetooth. Also, remote doesn't light up when using it so you can't see what source you're flipping to without having light.

THIS THING FREAKING ROCKS. Only reason 4 and not 5 stars and my only complaint is it's doesn't stay sync with the Vizio TV all the time. I don't know what its remote is even for because when sync the tv remote controls the volume. And I'm sure if i called Vizio they could help me but it works most of the time and other than that THIS THING IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. The sound quality and the BASS ARE AWESOME, ESPECIALLY FOR THE SIZE. The bar sits under my 48 in vizio tv which sits on its factory stands and the sub-woofer being vertical is between the couch and wall so out of site and blows people away. I got an "open box special" when they were about $500 and paid $250. I see they are listed at $429 but and sale for $250 right now. Its a solid stereo and EASILY WORTH $500 BUT $250 ITS A STEAL!!! If you have been thinking about surround.... JUMP ON THIS DEAL BEFORE IT IS GONE!!!!!!!!!!

Given the price, I'm satisfied with the looks and sound quality. However, for the first week or so, I was miffed that the rear speakers and woofer would turn off on their own, even though the main sound bar (under the TV) was still on and working. I had to try multiple combinations of turning the woofer power button on/off and/or trying to re-sync the rear items with the main sound bar. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not. Come to find out--after the technician from Best Buy came over--that it was reacting to the cable modem signal. The tech changed the channel on the cable modem and my system worked...for a week. Now it's back to shutting itself off. I'll be returning this Vizio system for something else next week!

im using iphonex with google music installed. vizio soundbar stops after one song played, but the other speakers linked thru cast continues to play. description of the issue as below; 1. playing music through google music casted to multi-room speakers (i use 2- jbl link speakers), after one song being played, vizio stops playing the music, but the other two speakers still plays. 2. the only thing to make vizio play again (soundbar is still ON), is to restard and reconnect cast (disconnect and reconnect cast). then again, after one song being played, #1 recurs. 3. the weird thing is, you can adjust volume through smart cast app using the soundbar. and if you are actually adjusting the volume through google music, you will see the soundbar's light indicator for volume responds- but not playing music at all- it only adjust the volume of the other two speakers. interestingly, this issue is only for google music. there are no issues when playing spotify and casting to multi-room speakers. nevertheless, it's a great sounding machine and i love it for my movies. i hope google and vizio will figure something out on how to fix this issue. or probably i need to change phone LOL.

My opinion on this sound system is positive, if you are on a budget and trying to find a decent soundbar Vizio will be a good choice. The sound quality is pretty good and it has really good bass. It bass and the soundbar looks pretty stylish so it display nice in the living room. The only thing that I dislike about this sound bar is the wireless bass, it will lose it connection every once in a while and you have to re-calibrate it back with all the speakers. Other than that is a decent sound bar.

I have a vizio tv and my favorite pass time is watching movies with my kids so I wanted the effects of being a a real theater so I purchased this sound bar. I love the surround, it was easy to set up and because my tv is the same brand it can be controlled by the tv remote. You can bluetooth music from your phone thru the sound bar which is a plus for me because I love listening to music while house cleaning. Very satisfied with my choice.

I bought it for less than $300. So I'm happy with the sound quality for the money spent. Even though the app is hard to set up for the first time, it is way easier to go into the settings than using the remote control Vizio provides. The smartcast app is not that useful. The soundbar works great in Bluetooth mode. It is very loud. This is one cheap step closer to having a movie theater at home.

Bought this to pair with my new 65" TV. It looks great with its black and silver scheme - matches perfectly with the TV. Wireless subwoofer and surround makes this very simple to setup - dont need to worry about wiring. Sound quality is quite decent for movies, not so much for music. But for the looks, price and ease of setup - a great deal for a surround sound system.

Like other reviews I've read there were some connectivity issues at first until I realized you have to have the sub-woofer in line-of-site with the sound bar. Once set up right the sound is awesome! 5.1 surround sound is like you are at the movies. It's like I have a whole new t.v. Very clear and powerful only use it at about a third of its potential.

I went in with the intention of getting a sound bar with no idea which. After checking them all out I went with this and am very happy with it . The sound is awesome with the sub turned all the way up it's insane ! I downloaded the app to set it all up and it's very easy to set up and tweak exactly how you want it . Definitely recommend this.

I really like the sound coming out of this soundbar.Great soundbar in its price range..only thing I feel negative is one of speaker sound is feeble..Even after did all sound adjustments in remote and even tried via app. I assume the problem is from one of the sub woofer outlet. I am yet to contact vizio on this issue.

This is an excellent 5.1 home theater system for those who dont want to clutter their living room or have the hassles of doing concealed wiring. It was very easy to setup - within 10 minute of opening the box. The remote display could be a bit more intuitive, but was reasonably ok to setup. Sound quality is excellent at this price point - you need to have a high-end receiver with a component speaker system to get any better (and then worry about concealed wiring).

System sound nice gives the volume I was looking for and it fills the room. Does not sound cheap. Easy to install Have some issues with cable remote adjusting volume up and down. Also changing source. I.e. Bluetooth to tv etc etc. Overall I'm satisfied with system and would recommend.

The sound bar, subwoofer and the satellite speakers are all good. The sound quality is good. Occasionally after powering ON the subwoofer (I usually power it OFF when not in use), it doesn't connect to the soundbar automatically so have to redo the connection process.
