    Excellent bang for your buck

    I purchased this soundbar as a family Christmas present to replace a 10+ year old rca system. It is definitely head and shoulders above everything we listened to in the big box stores and light-years better than our old rca. The only gripe we have is the remote. It has a digital display on the remote which is not backlit so it is difficult to read in low light settings. Our Samsung q8 tv has an hdmi-arc input, so we have the soundbar run through that. That basically eliminates using the remote because we can adjust volume through the TV remote. Adjusting the settings on the sound bar is easy w

    Great value! Good performance! But do your research.

    This product is an absolute steal at the current pricing. It delivers big, clear sound and an impressive sound stage for 5.1 content. The Atmos effects are also impressive, though certainly a far cry from the effect of having dedicated speakers mounted in the ceiling. All in all I'm pleased with the purchase. That said, there are aspects you should be aware of. I purchased this unit to provide enhanced sound in a home-office. It's were I tend to work, game, and watch movies that the rest of the family has no interest in. My setup involves a 55" Samsung QLED Q80T television, an nVidia Shield se

    BUY IT IF YOU CAN!

    I'm only giving this 4 stars for its sound quality because I have one of these in my bedroom home theater and this one is in my office theater, whereas I have a $3,000 system in my Family Room.Yeah...That one slightly beats out the Vizio systems. Slightly.I must say that Vizio itself has a crummy customer service line. You should stick to buying their systems from Amazon...because Amazon's service representatives give a darn. But this is my third system from Vizio (a fourth had to be returned) and I cannot recommend enough the sound quality they give vis-a-vis their prices. Yes, it is true - m

    It's great when it works and horrid when it doesn't

    I had no trouble setting up the system despite have nothing but a cryptic outline of how to do so with the equipment. The plastic and cloth on the equipment are a disappointment even though they look okay from a distance. However, after working for a few days, the system disconnected for no reason and after reconnecting it and reconfiguring it all over again. I thought ok that wasn't bad but after doing it now at least 4 or 5, it is getting old. Some days it takes several tries to pair it and the devices are six inches apart! And the most annoying part of the process is getting the system to l

    Best for my use

    Wonderful product. I live in an apartment. The 6" subwoofer is perfect. The up firing Atmos speakers both front and rear provide a real extra dimension to the audio experience. The bar uses the minimum number of speakers for a 5.1.4 and no passive radiators but based on my weeks using it that is all it needs. I'm using it with an HDMI ARC, CDC equipped TV and all work perfectly. I use apps for the TV, Visio soundbar and BluRay player. All three, side by side on the phone and tablet is just great. Remotes are packed away in a drawer. Highly recommended.

    Terrible, defective product. No returns. Do not buy. Not even that great when working properly.

    My rear speakers made a popping static noise since the first time I turned this on. I swapped out the source, switched to a different HDMI cable, changed inputs, and went through every possible setting in the software. Nothing helped, so I tried to return it to Amazon. This item for some reason is not eligible for a return. Amazon told me to contact Vizio. Vizio customer service was polite and tried to be helpful, but their only suggestions were to do the same things I had already done. I spent and hour going through everything again with them on the phone, eventually they told me that I have

    Better than expected

    Was hesitant to buy with mixed reviews, price was also still to much considering it’s a updated model but luckily the price changed was right and well worth it. Perfect application for what we were looking for. Sound is better than I thought love the flexibility of controls it has. Not disappointed would recommend if you can still find this model. Easy to set up

    Great sound system that requires some setup and technical expertise

    Value: 5/5 once it’s up and running the sound os fantastic and you won’t get this level of Dolby for under $350 especially not a 5.1.4Setup: 2/5I will admit it took me a little while to figure out how to get my TV to play nice with pass through and my Apple TV. If you run into issues I would suggest turning off “earc” in setting and set your passthrough settings to uncompressed (in my case mine was a Sony oled tv running android tv)Sound/Base 4.5/5It sounds incredible and the base is heavy almost too overwhelming in comparison to the volume of the rest of the system, I had to go into settings
