[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's been quite a few years since I've had a sound bar. The last sound bar was made by Sony and it lasted 10 years before it stopped functioning properly. I never bothered to replace it because I lived in apartments and thought "Why bother? They're so loud." Wellllllll........I really missed the sound quality and jumped at the chance to test this guy out. This sound bar is NICE. Right out of the package you can feel the quality of the speakers and the technology within them. My last sound bar had a lot of the same features, minus the surround speakers, and was almost as easy to set up. I absolutely love that this has fewer wires and that the subwoofer is connected by blue tooth. It makes it easier to position the subwoofer (and they suggest placement in the instructions) I went with the suggestion of putting it next to my sofa, with the surround speakers on either side, and the main sound bar in front of the TV. Setup took all of 10 minutes and was a breeze. Do I like having to have an app to control this? NO, I do not. HOWEVER, it makes it much easier to fine tune the sound to your preferences. The app has a lot of pre loaded sound setting but I like being able to adjust them myself. The Night Mode feature gets A LOT of use because it lowers the volume to a level that's more respectful to neighbors. This thing gets REALLY LOUD. I'm sad I don't have a house because I'll rarely, if ever, be able to really blast the hell out of this guy. Even for music, it makes listening to some of my favorite albums a really nice experience. The sound is immersive and crisp and it really does surround me. It makes watching movies a whole different experience. I find the height feature a little confusing but it apparently positions the speakers to create different sound features. Up will surround you with more sound and be more immersive than positioning the speakers straight ahead. I like having that option but I didn't notice a drastic difference in positioning them up or down though. Perhaps it would be more noticeable in a larger room. Now, I like that you can use this with any brand of TV, though it can be attached differently to VIZIO brand TV's, and comes with the hardware necessary to do so. I have a cheaper flat screen TV and this has worked great. It worked so much better than the TV's speakers and the sound quality gives movies a cinematic feel to them. For the quality of the product, it is absolutely worth the price point, and I really hope this lasts as long or longer than my last one, as it's almost three times the price of my last model. Really pleased to have this, especially with winter coming up, because I'm sure there will be some snow days spent inside watching movies. It's already been nice to have for my horror movies.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got the VIZIO Elevate SE soundbar (model SL512X-0806), and I have to say, it’s a total game changer! I’m not a tech expert, but setting this thing up was super easy—just one cable, and you’re good to go. The best part? The sound is insane for something this compact. First off, the speakers are small but pack a serious punch. I’ve got two tiny speakers placed on the side, a clean soundbar and a wireless subwoofer that’s only 6” inches, but the bass is massive. You can literally tuck the subwoofer anywhere, and it stays out of sight while still giving you that deep, theater-like bass. Watching movies feels like I’m in the middle of the action! The soundbar itself looks really slick—it’s not just about style though, the sound is super clear and balanced. It automatically detects when you’re watching something in Dolby Atmos or DTS:X and adjusts the speakers for the best experience. Those rotating speakers really bring the sound to life, especially for movies or shows with rich soundtracks. One thing I really love is that you can control everything through the VIZIO app, which is so intuitive. It’s all there—bass, treble, sound modes—easy to adjust without fumbling around. Even if you’re not tech-savvy, you’ll find it simple to manage. Honestly, if you’re looking for something that gives you awesome sound without a crazy setup or price tag, I’d totally recommend this. Build quality is as expected and storing. It’s got the big sound, easy setup, and it looks great too!
