VIZIO V-Series 5.1 Sound Bar System

Have this hooked up via HDMI for watching movies in a fairly small room (15’x25’). Instructions are basic but fine, and thr set does include brackets for hanging the surround speakers if you wish. I simply set mine on a shelf. Very pleased that the subwoofer is wireless, and I’ve never had any issue with it not connecting or losing signal in the weeks I’ve had it.

What I really like is that it does a great job of emphasizing dialogue. My parents watched a movie with me and commented on how well they could understand The Fall Guy, and both of them are in their 80s with hearing aids, so that’s true praise. I like that the sound bar volume operates using the TV remote, too.

Sound quality is very decent. You will not confuse this for a Sonos or other high dollar surround system, but the improvement over standard TV speakers is still enormous, and at 1/3 the price of just a Sonos sound bar, it’s a great deal.

All that said, there are some factors I don’t particularly like. The remote is not blatantly obvious how to use, and it does not provide much information for the various settings when you adjust them. It’s entirely a guess whether “+” means you are increasing the setting or if there are only two settings and you’ve selected the higher one. For sure you can tell when you select different sound type settings – essentially preset graphic equalizers – but modifying things beyond that is poorly defined. The other issue with the remote is that it’s not lit, so guessing what button is what in a dark room is difficult. Not a deal breaker, just could be better.
Finally, I’m not sure who all these reviewers are who claimed it has “booming” bass but it does NOT. Who can blame it? It’s working with a tiny 4.5” speaker! But for the size it does do a good job of producing SOME bass, which is more than almost any soundbar can claim. It will not shake your walls. It will not make you feel the dinosaur’s footsteps or jump when a bomb hits, but it’s a good deal better than no subwoofer, and again it’s really good for the price point.

So do like it? Definitely.
Would I buy it again? Definitely.
Would I recommend it? Yes, IF you are looking for big improvement over the TV speakers but are not concerned about making the room resonate, or if your budget simply doesn’t allow for a high dollar system. However, if deep and strong bass is truly key for you, you’re going to have to shell out more money for a bigger sub.

Honestamente no tenia una alta expectativa de este producto, ya que su precio es bastante bajo a comparación de otros productos en el mercado. Y puedo decir que estoy más que satisfecho con la compra. Cuenta con un sonido bastante bueno, no se distorsiona y los bajos se escuchan muy bien. Yo este producto lo compre pensando en usarlo para ver películas y series, y hasta el momento me hace sentir como si estuviera en un cine.
El paquete incluye 1 barra de sonido, 1 subwoofer y 2 bocinas surround. Además, trae consigo un cable de sonido optico, un cable de HDMI/ARC, sus respectivos cables para conectar las bocinas surround al subwoofer, que dicho sea de paso cuentan con un gran largo en tamaño, trae un cable para conectar la barra de sonido a luz y uno para conectar el subwoofer a luz, además de un control y dos pilas AA.
Uno de los puntos que me encantaron es que el subwoofer es inalámbrico, por lo que no tienes que preocuparte por tener demasiados cables recorriendo tu habitación. Además el control tiene una mini pantalla LCD para ver la acción que estas realizando.
La barra de sonido cuenta con una entrada de sonido optico, una entrada HDMI/ARC, una entrada de cable Auxiliar, y otra de Auxiliar/VX, en la cual puedes conectar tu echo dot para utilizar con el teatro en casa, asi como una entrada de USB para poder reproducir música desde esta. Otro detalle importante es que cuenta con Bluetooth y para conectarlo es bastante sencillo. La barra cuenta también con una tira de leds las cuales te indican el sonido que la barra tiene al subir o bajar volumen, entre otros indicadores.
La instalación es bastante sencilla y rápida.
En conclusión, este sonido no le pide nada a productos de mayor precio o marcas reconocidas, por el precio puedes encontrar una gran calidad.

ACTUALIZACIÓN: Después de un mes de uso sigo muy satisfecho con el producto, he probado las distintas configuraciones de sonido y todas son excelentes. El único detalle viene el el Subwoofer, ya que en ocasiones se puede escuchar un tipo de ruido en este, pero no es algo molesto.

I’m pleasantly surprised for the sound from this Soundbar, it truly compliments my new 65” Amazon Firetv. The sound fills our living room perfectly. I would definitely recommend this particular Soundbar if you a small living space.

I bought this soundbar for my 40 something inch Vizio TV that I use in my living room. This TV in particular seems to have speakers only on the back of the TV which means even with the TV sound turned all the way up the sound quality was terrible and I could barely hear a thing! It sounded like my TV was in a box! It was absolutely neccessary for me to purchase a soundbar.

I wanted a nice middle of the road soundbar that would give me a good listening experience but that wasn’t some big investment and I did a bit of research on them before ultimately deciding just to give this one a try. It came quickly and was packed very well. It was actually quite a bit of work to get it out of its manufacturing package.

I was able to mount it below my TV that is on a rolling TV stand and place the subwoofer in the back of the room on the floor in a stationary place. The soundbar is the perfect size for my 40 something inch tv and has a great sleek look. It seems to be made very well and is comparable to any other soundbar I’ve ever seen in person.

The subwoofer is also not too big or too small and it’s not very noticeable at all sitting on the floor in the back of my room. It’s very reasonably sized and blends in well. The only thing I don’t like about the subwoofer is that the power cord plugs into the front of the subwoofer which looks pretty dumb.

The remote it comes with works well. The soundbar is easy to figure out and use and the sound quality so far has been great. It really changes my whole experience when watching my TV. It makes me feel like I’m in a movie theatre.

Being that this soundbar was very reasonably priced, is of great quality and has great sound I am 100% happy with my choice to purchase this specific soundbar and I think anyone else would be as well.
