Pros and Cons

Pros5

Bass is powerful without struggling or clipping, sound is crisp without being bright. Subwoofer really vibrates the living room with the base which is nice -- just like the theaters. Upward firing speakers do a fantastic job at projecting sound ubove,...  Read More

This vizio is good! It hits all the points i am hoping for without spending $1,000 or more to impress my friends. That frustration is 1000% worth the end result! This set up is mind blowing!

Disney plus is the only streaming service that has a lot of dolby atmos content. Atmos works most of the time with compatible streaming apps and games.

This is an amazing sounding system that easily punches above its sub $1000 price. A numerical read-out makes it much easier to find and remember your preferable sound levels. The problem with so many reviews i read is there are a lot of audiophiles ou...  Read More

I'm not a huge sound buff but is this worth 5-600? Over all i would say that this sound bar is under priced, it blows everything in its class out of the water.

Lazy company. The ux is absolute garbage. That's not how you treat loyal customers. Vizio customer service is a dumpster fire that clearly is run by an organization that relies on scripts.

At least half the time getting it to work requires unplugging it several times and swapping inputs. Firmware updates do nothing. It constantly freezes and even worse now the lights on the front no longer fade out during use.

The soundbar is so glitchy. It's as if it has no idea how to handle the incoming audio data. Occasionally the soundbar requires a full reboot to function again. I have to turn the vizio bar on and off and reconnect to earc and movie eq to get it to wo...  Read More

Pros3

The bass is tight and punchy and the voices are clear and planted on screen.

Surprising amount of bass without a subwoofer.

The design of the sound bar is very sleek but the bright color is a bit easy to notice dirt and yellowing. This sound bar sounds like it is twice the size at least; very full sound especially in the midrange.

Cons3

Sounds good but volume at 100 isn’t even that loud. It changes source and turns the volume up full bast, by itself, repeatedly. It's completely unusable because of lag.

Product still under warranty. Only operated through remote for 2 months. Its a real bummer. It's so infuriating.

It drops its wifi connection whenever the unit sleeps or powers off. When it reconnects, it haphazardly connects to whichever of my satellites it wants. The only way to fix this is to power off the living room satellite and wait for it to reconnect to...  Read More
