I have had this installed for about 2 months now. It is amazing how much the audio quality is using these speakers -vs- the sound output from my TV alone. The sound was tinney, but is now full and robust with a booming bass. Just like I'd hoped.

This soundbar made watching TV so much more immersive considering the crappy speakers that came on my Samsung TV originally. One thing I will say about this soundbar however is the clarity out of the box is horrible. Vocals are muted, listening to Spotify on it the soundbar emphasizes the soundstage and instruments over the vocals which almost made me return this. However on the remote there are buttons to adjust the Treble, Bass, and Subwoofer manually and after boosting the treble significantly and bringing up the bass and sub a little, this thing sounds amazing! If you get this and you’re not impressed play with the EQ settings a little, the speakers in this are very capable but it seems like Vizio nerfs them a little out of the box.

A really impressive piece of audio equipment! I recently bought this at my local Target store to supplement the volume from my living room tv. I'm at that age where I couldn't hear the dialog coming from my tv and was tired of having to either turn up the volume or turn on "closed caption" to understand what was being said. This item solved the problem! The dialog is now easily understandable and, best of all, I've been able to set up the volume button on my Cox remote to work with it! Plus, I can play music from my iPhone through the speakers - and it sounds wonderful! It was easy enough to connect to the tv and one quick phone call to the Vizio help desk answered all of my remaining questions. I'm certainly not an audio connoisseur, but this product fulfilled my expectations - wish I would've bought this sooner!

I wanted a speaker remote from the TV closer to where we sit while also keeping the TV speaker active. Due to audio latency (delay) I had to use the 3.5mm analog input. The bluetooth audio had a large delay, the HDMI ARC had a lesser delay (but noticeable) and my TV optical audio was already being used for something else. The analog audio sounds very good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace my old 48” Vizio in my living room. I had some issues with the initial setup, but I contacted customer service and it took about 10 minutes and they had more up and running. I also bought a 2.1 Vizio sound bar. They work great together. I like all the free channels. The color is great. I now have a total of 4 Vizio tvs, the oldest purchased in 2005. They are all still working.

Mom wanted something simple to replace Dad's old receiver and surround sound system and this fit the bill nicely. With her Samsung flat screen connected with the HDMI ARC port, the sound bar turns on automatically and volume is controlled with her regular remote. No need to use the one provided. I was able to connect her CD player to the AUX port with the provided RCA cable. You have to use the provided remote to cycle through the input options, but there is a voice that tells you which one you're on after changing it. Very easy. There is also a digital input, but when I used that, the sound bar didn't turn on automatically, although it sounded fine. It's very convenient that they provide all these connecting cables, plus batteries for the remote.

Each time we turn on the tv, it’s a toss up on whether the sound will work or not. Either we have to wait for the sound to connect on its own, or try a number of things to try and get it to connect (turn tv off, reboot tv, unplug and replug sound bar). This has started happening consistently after a few months of having this bar. We thought it’d be perfect to use with one of our Vizio tvs, but it’s truly a hassle everyday.
