Small, but loud!
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.Purchased this sound bar for the living room of my parents house and they're happy as can be. The price was good (130) and the sound that comes from this wakes up the room. You can adjust the equalizer to fine tune the sound as well as adjust the sub level. It can really rattles the window of you want it to. Great little sound bar with full sound!

Compact Design. Impressive Sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.I purchase this sound bar for my new computer build. I wanted a speaker system that will allow Dolby and DTS decoding. In addition, I was looking for a sound bar no longer than 28 inches due to my computer 4K monitor being 28 inches in length. This was a perfect match. Sound quality: Absolutely outstanding. I was skeptical about purchasing a sound bar that only has two speakers (channels) as opposed to the three channel setup (Left, Center, & Right). I played the movie "iRobot" encoded in DTS. The dialog was crisp, and it appeared to be coming from the center of the sound bar. Consider it as a "Phantom" center channel if you will. During the loud segments, e.g. explosions were loud, but did not drown out the dialog. I was hooked. Compared to my 7.1 Surround system, I experience the issue, and have to increase the volume on my center channel speaker.. Subwoofer: Great bass coming from a 4.5" speaker (Bedroom Configuration). The only problem that I have experienced is that at low volume levels, it appears to cut out. In reviewing the problem via google, it has given me a few ideas in troubleshooting this problem. Pairing is the first step, Interference is the second step, last but not least, find out if there is a firmware update. Oddly enough, when looking for an update firmware, instead of asking for the model number, Vizio asks for the serial number. This is a inconvenience. I don't understand the logic behind it. Most companies just as for the model number. Bluetooth Connectivity: Experience no issues in connecting to my iPhone 12 Max Pro. HDMI, or Optical: No issues. Sound Equalization Presets: Music, Movie, Dialog. This sound bar will talk to you as you change sound settings, and also input settings. There is also a "Voice Assist" feature as well.

Great for me
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.Perfect for my bedroom. It sounds like I’m at the movies. I ended up putting a block of styrofoam in the hole of the woofer to create a smoother bass

Bass is good, Sound is clear. Value for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.It's good for the price. The bass is super good, and the sound is very clear while watching a movie. The ability to connect using ARC helps not to keep searching or worrying about the second remote for sound

Great sound for a gaming setup
||Posted .I have my PS4 Pro setup in my game room and use my 27" Dell gaming monitor which has no speakers as the display. Bought these today with low expectations. Figured I'd try and if it sounded like junk I'd just return them. First off the sound bar (24") fits perfectly under my Dell monitor. Almost looks like its part of the monitor. I connected through optical, played some Cold War and was impressed by the big sound from this small 2.1 speaker set up. Bass is plentiful without any distortion at the level I was satisfied with. Overall sound is crisp and clear. Turn on the DTS Virtual: X option for a more surround stereo sound, makes a huge difference. Definitely recommend these for anyone looking to add a little sound bar (24") to their gaming/computer set up with some bass.

Recommend highly
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.We have a smaller living room, and this system is perfect for the size, and great value for the money. Makes movie watching an event, and smart casting music really impressive. The subwoofer is small and fits just fine in the back of the room. Really pleased. A standard soundbar mount with angle brackets to attach under the soundbar worked perfectly.

Great sounding and easy to setup Vizio 2.1soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Very impressed with the sound of this compact soundbar and sub! I did a quick search for reasonably pried soundbars with wireless sub for my outdoor TV. The TV speakers basically fire backwards so the sound is too loud around the TV area. The soundbar directs the sound right out front so the neighbors don't get annoyed. The wireless sub-woofer performs great for its size. The system was so easy to set up that I thought i was missing something. One HDMI cord from the ARC output from the TCL TV and 2 power cords and was done. The bass module set itself up and ting as working in less than 5 minutes. The soundbar is customizable and has a virtual X 3D mode that sounds great. The system works seamlessly with the ROKU remote that comes wit the TCL TV that I also purchased from BestBuy.

Asked by Helios.
- A:Answer The sound bar will power on and off with the TV when connected with HDMI ARC inputs and CEC is turned on through the TV. To change between the HDMI ARC and Bluetooth inputs, you will need to make that adjustment on the sound bar, with the remote, or with the Free VIZIO SmartCast app.
