Basically a good unit
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For a small to medium room, this unit delivers a fairly good sound and spacial effect. The sub woofer is a surprisingly stout piece. It has very good, deep range for its size. The system won't win any rewards, but it seems competent in most moderate settings. Unfortunatly my unit has a problem with the volume adjustments. It developed a disturbing malfunction, which could not be resolved by either the Vizio or cable remotes. It seemed to go into a sleep state when adjusting the volume until at some random spot it would jump to full volume and could not be turned back down without scrambling with the remote frantically, then all of a sudden it would come alive again and turn the volume all the way down. It became uncontrollable and unreliable, and I disabled the whole system and set up my own receiver/AV system. I will be returning it. I have not yet gone into any more efforts to find out what the issue is. If I learn more about the symptoms, I'll update this review. Right now, I can't recommend it, based on this issue alone.

Amazing for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was searching for a decent sound bar and preferred Vizio brand as I have a Vizio tv. Was a little hesitant but this sound bar and subwoofer sound amazing. It’s premium and quality sound for a portion of the price of a more expensive one. Yes maybe more speakers would make it better but this is just for my room it literally makes floor vibrate. Once you mess with the bass and treble and sub, it sounds amazing. Would definitely think about going more expensive when this one goes out eventually

One of the best priced sound bars on the market
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great sound bar and the price is even better. I use this with my 65” 4K Home Theatre Display and it is a perfect pair. The speaker on the display is average to sub-average speakers. The sound provides plenty of kick with movies with a lot of bass and great for sports. The Bluetooth pairing is convenient and nice; the range is great, works anywhere in my apartment. Great buy, highly recommended.

Great value for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers definitely have a surround sound feeling to them, and I really like that the subwoofer is wireless and can be turned on and off independently. The sound is nothing ground breaking, but for a small living room it’s more than enough. My only complaint is there does not seem to be any sort of subwoofer level control, only on or off. I wish it could be raised or lowered independently.

Premium Sound for half the Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you want high quality sound for movies and music and enjoy a minimalist design then for under $300 this is one of your best choices, if not the best. The options are enough for most enthusiasts wanting to improve their TV viewing experience. Setup was easy and I was surprised at the clarity and power of the audio. Don't hesitate. Read the reviews. This is budget priced premium sound that raises the bar!

GREAT PRODUCT FOR A GREAT PRICE!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just picked this up yesterday via curbside along with yet another TV... lol This thing sounds like a stereo compared to ours in the living room. It sounds like there’s a car subwoofer(not exaggerating) in the corner of our family room! 10/10 I recommend, might have have to get a 2nd one for our living room now!! Awesome product, beyond satisfied.

An amazing budget sound bar with subwoofer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound bar performs well for all kinds of sound. The subwoofer, which connects wireless is great. It’s a good budget sound bar. There are so many options to control, you will have to change it based on what you are listening through. It. No retreats buying it, but I also don’t say it’s the best. If you are tight on budget, go ahead it does the job.

Q: QuestionWhat's the difference between the SB3621N-E8M, which sells at $179, and the SB3621N-E8, which sells at $149? Spec-wise I can't see a noticeable difference, but many stores sell one model or the other with the $30 price difference.
Asked by RACCLP.
- A:Answer I was able to price match with the $149 price but after investigating I did find that the difference between these two models is the remote. The Best Buy version has a small LCD (?) screen at the top and lacks the "TVOL", "TSHD", "MOVIE", "MUSIC", "SUB", "BASS", and "TREB" buttons. I actually prefer the remote of the less expensive model because it adds functionality and the LCD screen is hard to read and not useful. I've attached an image of the remote from the SB3621N-E8 model.

Q: QuestionAm I able to add additional surround sound speakers in the future? Is this only able to connect with the subwoofer?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I was wondering the same thing after a couple days of having this bar set up. As far as I know you cannot add any additional speakers. This unit does sound great however you don’t quite get “surround” sound from the bar. If I were to go back I’d get a 5 channel set or the sound bar with 2 speakers indcluded as I feel my sound isn’t so much lacking just not exactly what I was looking for. Recap, no you cannot add speakers, get a 5 channel set or the sound bar with 2 speakers included if you want real surround sound as you can tell all the sound is coming from right in front of the tv.

Q: QuestionWill this sound bar work with a Samsung TV?
Asked by Ccsciteach.
- A:Answer yes. it will work with any tv with RCA or Optical inputs. This sound bar also works with any bluetooth device. This sound bar will integrate with the Vizio TV's standard remote so only one remote is needed for sound. If you use this sound bar with a samsung TV then you will need to use the vizio remote that comes with sound bar in addition to your TV remote.

Q: QuestionWhy is there no way to turn on DTS TruSurround? The product is supposed to have it and the quick start guide says its in the menu but its nowhere to be found. Not in the menu or on the remote. Is this a typo in the guide?
Asked by Remmy.
- A:Answer This model does have the DTS TruSurround feature. To disable to feature change the equalizer setting to Music. The Soundbar has it defaulted to on with the Equalizer set to Movie.
Answered by VIZIO
Q: QuestionIf DTS TruSurround is automatically enabled than why does it say there is a TSHD option in the guide. Vizio customer support is sending me a new soundbar because they had no idea why it wasn't showing up on the remote. Below I will attach my chat logs.
Asked by Remmy.
- A:Answer On this model there was a misprint in the Quick Start Guide. DTS TruSurround is automatically enabled out of the box. If you wish to disable the setting simply change the EQ setting to music.

Q: QuestionWill this Vizio soundbar work with a 50; Sharp TV that's not a smart TV? - Model Number: LC-50LB261U Sharp - 50" Class (49-1/2" Diag.) - LED - 1080p - HDTV - Black I still have the RCA jacks in the back.
Asked by dc09.
- A:Answer Yes it will. The soundbar has digital optical audio input that can be plugged in to the digital optical audio output of your television. A small optical cord comes with the soundbar, and it's specifically for TV sets like yours. On your TV, set the Digital Audio Out option on the SOUND menu to PCM.

Q: QuestionJust purchased a VIZIO M-55-EO and the VIZIO 2.1 SB-E8M. I seem to be getting an echo if volume is too high.Is there an optimal and/or worse proximity of the SB to TV. Not currently able to mount items on the wall.My room size is 12x24
Asked by John.
- A:Answer this sounds like you have both the tv speakers turned on AND the sound barn turned on. On the TV settings, make sure audio is set to external speakers only, or internal speakers off (there are a variety of ways that it's worded on a tv). you can simply also check by manually turning the TV speakers down to 0, and see if the echo stops.
