Connecting to the TV was easy, and I love the surround sound. However, I have just not been able to use it as a Bluetooth speaker with my phone or Alexa. The Vizio bar kept saying it is pairing mode, but none of the devices can see it. I have and use other Bluetooth devices at home, so I know the issue is with this Vizio device.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the sound bar with the hope of making dialogue while watching movies easier to hear and understand. So far the sound bar has not been able to perform this task successfully. I have consulted with support several times to no avail. The underlying problem is that the volume has to be turned way up to hear voices clearly however when music or other sound effects play they are at an ear splitting level which means I have to constantly turn the volume up and down while watching the movie or TV show. We have tried using night mode, TruVolume and also adjusting various levels but nothing works and the last contact I had with support they suggest if I keep having issues the device might be defective? I really don’t understand why dialogue and sound effects can’t come out of the soundbar at a comfortable level.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This system is what I wanted . clear crispy highs, and deep end. I live in an apartment and if I put it loud, I will get in trouble with my neighbors. It shakes the ground ! I was not convinced previously with only the main soundbar. Listen, you NEED the satellites for real deep and effortless surround sound.

I bought to replace my other Vizio Sound Bar that I have had for about 8 years, which cost more to fix than replace. This one is much better as the technology gets better. A big difficult to set up, but easier if you use patience. I highly suggest to anyone wanting a quality sound bar system.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great little system for small home or apartment. We're using ours in a 16 x 20 living room in a mobile home and get really good quality sound for the price. Set up and adjust correctly and you'll enjoy it for movies, TV and music.

Fairly easy to setup as long as you have a smart TV. I had to adjust my TV to use the eARC option and the rest was pretty simple. My only issue is the low end volume control. If I want to turn down the volume it goes from loud to off without any option in between.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this sound bar today, and it looks and sounds amazing! Unpacked it and read through the manual which made it a breeze to set up. Once the sound bar was connected to the subwoofer, it was game on. The sound is amazing. You can either set it up with the speakers in front, or from the rear. Either way it sounds great! We're so pleased with this sound bar, we're buying a second one for our other TV. Vizio hit the mark with this one! Definitely would recommend to everyone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this sound bar. Makes the family room feel like a theater. Easy to setup and customize the audio. Bluetooth provides instant access to my favorite music. The quality of sound compares to systems with a much higher retail price.

Love My new sound bar system super loud it goes all the way to 100 volume..I only have at 10 12..Make sure when you connect to is all the way inserted I'm using Hdmi cable at first no sound till finally began to pushing in hdmi cable more that did it wasn't connected al the way in..Also when Finally on it was working but my satelite speakers I could barely hear them.. sound was coming out but barely getting that full surround sound experience..I was going through all my settings on remote..saw a setting dual surround set it to that..boom my satelite speakers are banging now.

Everything well balanced soundbar sounds great perfectly even with satelite speakers..Voice sounds very clear loud..highly recommend this sound bar system.. you will not regret purchase.. love mine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Disclosure: We received this unit from VIZIO for the purpose of evaluating. We own several VIZIO products and have grown with the brand for many years. With each new unit, we're more impressed than the time before. Not only for the quality of the product itself, but the small details that go into the getting the unit up and running. The M512a-H6 sound bar with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X is the latest example. First, I want to point out the sound bar is more than just a bar. It's actually a bar, a subwoofer and two satellite speakers. But even the bar itself is more than just a bar as it includes upward facing speakers in addition to the traditional forward facing feature. This unit includes Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. We hadn't even noticed before that Netflix (and probably others) already support this more immersive sound experience. Technology will continue to improve with each new unit so it's no surprise that it's a step up from the sound system built into a television or even an existing sound bar. But what makes VIZIO products shine is that setup isn't difficult. Units are packaged with cabling labeled to reduce confusion and there are also removable pull-strips over the ports on the sound bar itself. You don't have to have an advanced tech degree to be able to set up this VIZIO sound system. If you're wondering how it sounded... it filled the room well for a captivating viewing (and listening) experience!
