    Great desktop speaker option

    Great desktop speaker option
    Music and other media sound great. Gets much louder than ever necessary for the office setting. Low profile really fits with large monitors. On some videos, the sub seems to have an audible delay/echo, but I think that is more due to placement under the desk, as it was not noticeable in other locations.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Bang for Buck
    Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2024
    Style: Wireless SubwooferPattern: 36 inchSize: 5.1Verified Purchase
    I know some people hate on Vizio, but you'll spend twice as much to get any noticeably better sound and effects.

    I bought the 36 inch, 5.1 setup.
    I'm using this on my desktop PC with optical ( SPDIF/TOSLINK ) outputs.
    It took a minute to get my PC setup to properly output 5.1 DTS etc.

    I used it for awhile without the rear speakers, and only 2 channels of uncompressed output.
    I was VERY impressed by the 'virtual surround' effects even in 2 channel mode!
    Keep in mind I am only 3 feet away from the bar, but several times I've looked over my shoulder thinking something was behind me.

    It will get loud enough to upset your neighbors in an apartment.
    The Bluetooth has more lag than most BT devices.

    Overall:
    Way better than expected and I'm sure it is easier/better when using HDMI-ARC.
    In a 12' x 12' space, this gets the job done.

    If you're an audio aficionado, this is a lil above satisfactory.
    But for 10% of the cost of a real theatre setup AND it fits in my tiny office, I like it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Blown Away!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2024
    Style: Wireless SubwooferPattern: 36 inchSize: 5.1Verified Purchase
    The media could not be loaded.
     Now I was not expecting what I got and to think I returned the inferior version really played on my psyche but I am so glad I gave this a chance! One word “ Afuckingmazing”, ok I made that up but really this system is all satisfying!
    Setup: A breeze! Easy peasy! Connect everything and turn it on! Voila!!!

    Price point: In my perhaps biased opinion (but I am going off of systems I’ve purchased in the past) at this price point you won’t find a better system pound for pound!

    Placement: I do have this in my bedroom which is not small by any means but of course is a nice square space so perfect for acoustics. I have my satellite speakers on my nightstands and my subwoofer next to one of my nightstands next to the wall. Perfect setup to fill the entire room. With that said, I’m not so sure if it will give the same impact on an open floor plan in a great room. I have a klipsch 5.1 soundbar setup in my great room which is minimally satisfying but I blame it on my space size and have to work on optimal placement.

    Sound and material quality: looks like a decent built system nothing spectacular looking about it. Doesn’t look cheap but doesn’t look expensive either. It may not be as evident in my provided video as I have the sound very low( writing this review 4am so there’s that) but the balance is just right. Speakers are crisp and clear, the subwoofer packs an incredible punch! You look at how small it is ( 4.5”) and instantly underestimate its power! Well, I’m here to tell you Big things really do come in small packages!!!! This sub HITS!!! That being said the remote could use some illumination.. my only complaint on this review.

    Overall if you want a nice system for I would say a medium to large room, that is of good quality, fitting a small budget this is going to be a good system. If you are thinking about getting it just get it. I get the feeling you won’t be disappointed! I’m so pleased I’m purchasing a 2.1 setup for my daughter’s room. I hope this review takes you off the fence. I’m always relying on reviews to decide if I want to purchase so I only hope I can help the decisive competitive buyer.

    We wanted a 5.1 surround sound system without the big name expense. I have yet to be unhappy with Vizio products and this V-Series 5.1 Home Theater Sound Bar with Dolby Audio, (this is not the DTS unit) is no exception. It comes with wall mounting hardware for studs or sheetrock. The EQ settings on this are simple to use and adjust. It is louder (decibel wise) than our other Vizio 2.1 and sounds even better. Perfect amount of bass and volume for a 250sq ft room. If you really want it to, the bass can "boom" but it all depends on your ear and what you like. My wife and I like to feel the bass and enhance the sound experience but I don't want my "trunk" rattling, though this can do just that if you want it to. Treble and Mids are also great, not tinny, not muffled. It is very sound forward and one of my favorite features......Speaker volume adjustment! Setting the Center Speaker volume up and Dialog Boost volume up means you can actually hear what is being said without having to turn on captions because of the ridiculously loud music that always seems to overwhelm movies. You will have to play with the adjustments, it doesn't just come out of the box sounding perfect (although it does sound great out of the box). So just remember to be patient, I know that is hard sometimes but trust me, it is absolutely worth it. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS...can't stress that enough....you know who I'm talking to.

    My parents have a Sonos system that was over $1600 and I really don't notice a difference, other than the cost. Maybe it's worth it some how...because some people think more money means better product "Ohhh Shiny" (sometimes that is true, not this case) but if you want to save money and still have a really versatile 5.1 system that is GREAT for movies AND music, give this Vizio 5.1 system a try and see for yourself and before you think it, no I am not being paid nor was I given this thing, I just think it is really that good.

    Just to give some added proof, I have been a guitarist for 27 years. I've had several cheap and high end amps, I have been around what is considered High quality sound systems ($100,000+) in recording studios. That isn't to say I know more than you, but sometimes it is nice to know that someone who has experiences that you may not have had, can help you with making the best decision for your lifestyle and budget. I really enjoy helping people and I honestly do think if you buy this and take the time to set it up the way it works best for your listening experience, you really will be happy and save money and family and friends that come over will probably be asking "What brand?" and "How much was it???!". That has happened to me and my wife already...Good luck, happy listening and be happy! You deserve it!

    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.

    Pense en reemplazar un sistema 2.1 Genius de 20 watts 6 watts cada bocina y 8 watts el subwoofer para computador que adquirí 10 años atrás y no fue mejor así que lo devolví.
    Los bajos no son contundentes y las bocinas no suenan fuerte . Si su televisor tiene un audio horrible puede ser opción de lo contrario mejor adquirir una barra 2.1 con subwoofer aparte de mayor tamaño

    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.
