Pros and Cons

Pros4

The juice is worth the squeeze. Take the time to read the manual and make some adjustments for your room. The subwoofer is very good actually have to turn it almost all the way down just to make it to where it wasn't shaking the whole house.

Dual surround is great as well depending on the mood im in and which movie or show im watching. This time around both the subwoofer and speaker are more compact.

It's an affordable and easy-to-use soundbar system that produces great sound quality. The soundbar comes with a remote control that makes it easy to adjust the volume. The remote is very nice with a backlit display.

One of the best things about the vizio v-series 5. Home theater sound bar is its ease of use. The one thing i really like is it is really easy to customize the sound for what i need and yes the 5. Home theater sound bar is a great feature.

Not at all happy with this product or seller. Some techs tell me because it doesn't have a hdmi input and can't allow the 4k signal through correctly. Vizio says the serial numbers should match.

The sound is either too loud or not loud enough. The bluetooth feature is terrible. While great for bluetooth, unfortunately not being able to use the soundbar unless i'm blasting audio makes it not work for my modified use case.

Usb a to c cable does power and audio enumeration so that was all i needed. Using aux cords comes with their own particularities but as long as music is playing, i don't hear the static or humming. They have aux, optical, and hdmi inputs for sound.

This isn't bose or sennheiser or some music powerhouse, but creative knows what sounds good and how to do it well within a budget. I also tested out shows and movies of various types, from my toddlers shows all the way up to movies and shows me and my...  Read More

The speaker feels robust and solid in your hands, has a nice glossy black finish, and is slopped at the top so that it can fit under most monitors. I like how clean this would look under my monitor setup, but i also have my book shelf speakers and a n...  Read More

Sound is ok. It works well and it’s sounds fine. Sounds awesome.

Cons2

Only sound you hear is what comes from the subwoofer. If the sounds is paused, the speaker periodically spouts bluetooth disconnected. Un usable for gaming and video conferencing.

Key takeaway is to leave the unit alone. The volume * on this are not very responsive. The company is incapable of conducting telephone conversations.
