Great sound for price

I bought today for my bedroom which is a fair size room at 15'x19' and this thing sounds great paired with a 42" sharp TV. I only rated it a 4 because it's just a light system to determine what source is coming in. But once you remember those your fine. I'm a Samsung guy but for the price and being wireless Samsung doesn't have an equal to this.

Great sound

My TV sets in an alcove so the sounds seemed muffled. The sound bar corrects that issue and let's me hear things I never knew where in different shows or movies. It does take 20-30 seconds to sync up when the tv is first turned on and also when the tv is paused for a few minutes. But all and all it has good quality and suits my needs.

Rough start

Out ofvtge box it automatically paired with the bluetooth subwoofer, but the system would not respond to the remote or any of the controls on the soundbar. The other issue was the only controls that worked, somewhat, was the volume, but then volume would spike by itself every 10 minutes. I was able to call the vizio technical support, and they walked me through doing a factory reset. Since then the soundbar works great, and my family really enjoys the smartcast feature.

Great value! Best bang for your buck at pricepoint

Christmas Gift very well received, and their reaction and the shock value alone, were worth every penny to me! Super easy set up. Price point can't be beat for what you get in sound and quality. Smartcast app easily understood and not difficult to install. Bluetooth connection and setup, super easy too. If there is any one tiny negative, it for my taste doesn't have as many sound adjustment options. But I've gotten pretty picky with my ears when it comes to that. For $139 though, it was worth the time and effort to thoroughly research, I'm telling ya, every single brand! And end up with this Vizio Smartcast Soundbar and Wireless Sub! I was sooo impressed with it, I'm buying a soundbar for myself! Nuff Said! Buy it, you will not ever regret your purchase! 100db, you bet cha! Smartcast your ears away with this Vizio Soundbar setup, for your hard earned money, you can't beat this deal! Hope this helps, if so, great deal, I'm good with that....

Great Value

Though I wouldn't consider myself an 'audiophile', I did want better sound from the TV. Almost pulled the trigger on an entry Bose system a couple of months ago --- glad I didn't! To me, this system sounds just as good at 1/3 the price (Black Friday bargain at $119). For the average Joe, this is perfect!

I am blown away with the quality!

I purchased 2 of these, one for our rec room and one for my bedroom. I cannot say enough good about these. I have a Klipsch speaker system I spent over $4000.00 in my formal living room that is powered by a very high end Dennon receiver. This sound bar I spent $129.00 on is not far off from my $4000.00 system. The wireless sub is spot on. The bar once you set it up is crystal clear. I have them mounted below the TV's. Buy this set up for $129.00 you will be blown away.

Good Value for Good Sound

I bought this soundbar several weeks ago to pair with an older 32" TV in a guest room, and to replace the Klipsh computer speakers I was using as a stopgap. I listened to a demo in the store which was fine, but after I set it up at home, I was surprised by the even better quality of the sound for a such a modestly priced product. I did a lot of shopping around, and it beats many others costing much more. The soundbar is easy to set up and the remote functions well. The subwoofer provides a decent amount of bass, and it can be adjusted to suit your taste. My only complaint is that there is no HDMI output; my TV does not have an optical cable input, so I've lost the Dolby Digital "surround sound" capability. With analog connections it still sounds fine. Clearly this will not replicate a 5.1 surround sound system if you are used to that, but it provides better sound than expected and well worth the price. The added features like Google Cast and Vizio SmartCast are icing on the cake.

Great inexpensive sound system.

The dialogue is very clear and the little bass sub works perfect for a 20 x 12 room I have. I bought a 2nd system for another room.
