Packs a punch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this particular audio setup! Had issues with volume control but otherwise would recommend to anyone.

Great Sound for the Price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t see paying as much for a soundbar as a TV. This soundbar fits the bill for everyday family use. If you are an audiophile you well probably go for a more expensive one.

Best sound I have heard for a Television

The M-Series 5.1 system was more than I expected. Once I found out how to adjust the settings it was like a new experience enjoying my shows I have seen before.

Great Sound!

Extremely easy setup to both my Hisense U7g TV and to my Amazon Alexa voice assistant. Amazing sound! Feels like we are in a Movie theater. Best home theater option for the money out there, in my opinion!!!

Sound bar

We love the surround sound. Great bass. We had to move our router and cable box one shelf down in our entertainment center due to interference with the subwoofer. Works perfect now. Great sound. The satellite speakers are great.

Great sound, ease enough to set up

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have had it for about 3 weeks now. Easy enough to set up but still a struggle getting the sound right

Good sound. Hard to set up and get audio synched

I like the sound. Dolby Atmos does well filing the room with sound. I have issues where the sound bar does not turn on when I turn on tv, and issues where the audio cuts out so it forces tv sound to take over.

Not Compatible with Sony TV

The Vizio M51a-H6 soundbar is not compatible with the Sony RMF-TX800U remote which comes with the Sony XR-75X90K. The Vizio soundbar cannot be programed so that the Sony remote can be used to control the volume.
