The hook up is flexible and easy. The sound quality is very good. My only complain has to do with the remote control device. The top row of buttons are to close to the volume control. the volume increase button is just below the Bluetooth button, if accidently pushed, sound is lost. When this happens, you are required to go back through the input selection to rematch the initial setup.

The unit work really great for me I have a 60" TV that I added it to, my living room is small 12by 14 I had and old sub woofer that plug right in the unit and wow show time, the sound is unbelievable great. you can also buy the same unit with a sub that come with it, I wanted to try the sound bar out first and jus fell in love with it after I added the sub, I'm gonna buy another one with the sub Vizio is Awesome .

I was impressed by the sound quality. Mounted this on the wall and it sounds better than my Bose that costs 4 times as much. Easy to set up. looks great, booming sound, clear voice, solid bass. This is much better than expected for the price. Vizio sound may be the best kept secret.

awful to figure out but with persistence and Utube videos, online support, figured it out, now all works wonderful what a loud and nice sound. I would not advise it for a small place that noise is a problem because even on low its powerful. Quality is ok, its not a stereo system.

Good, rich sound with adjustable bass and treble without the thumping bass a separate woofer would give. Great for Sirius XM music. My Vizio TV and sound bar work on a single DISH remote. Very happy with this purchase, and far cheaper here than at BBuy.

Purchased the S3820w for better sound in our master bedroom as the TV speakers just didn't cut it. Shopped around, as I wanted two optical inputs for true Dolby digital from my DTV HD DVR and the blu-ray player and for roughly $90 from WalMart.com with free shipping, this fit the bill. Couldn't be more pleased, the sound is quite impressive for the cost and perfect for the bedroom. After wall mounting, noticed the bass output was more pronounced and the DTS Tru Surround does a surprisingly good job. Add to this, bluetooth, all cables and mounting hardware included and the ability to add a sub woofer if you choose (sub out jack), it's an excellent choice!

We installed the sound bar above the set using a universal bracket. It is paired with our Vizio TV. We have noticed a change in the sound quality but haven't really figured out how we should set it. Often, we will hear an echo. With the tru-volume and the tru-surround sound options and the hookup options, we aren't sure we have set things they way they should be. We will continue to explore. For now, I am happy to get better sound for my Chromecast and Netflix streaming. That was the goal.

Had a lot of trouble connecting. It was hit and miss, trial and error to get the sound from the TV to the sound bar. Finally connected the sound bar through the headphone jack and then had to sync it with the TV. I liked the sound coming from the bar and have no complaints with that aspect. Too long for my use so I brought it back and purchased the 29" Vizio. That one connected perfectly on first try and the sound was almost as good as this one. I give the 3820 4 1/2 stars for sound but 3 for ease of connection. Others have had no problems with the connections.

Overall, I would not buy this product again. The remote is almost impossible to open without breaking it to put the batteries in it. The sound bar's sound is just about as good as what you have on your TV. The volume control on the remote has very few increments of adjustment-very unsatisfactory. One is too low and the next one is far too loud. There are only minimal adjustments that you can make-not nearly enough. Very elementary. As far as the quality of the sound goes, there is nothing that sounds truly like "surround sound". The only positive is that it is easy to hook up!

Really improves the sound of most of today's flat screen HDTVs. I've connected it using coax digital out and optical digital out without problem. Maybe a little large for TVs under 42 inches and real audiophiles may want one with a wireless subwoofer for just a little more. Plays/syncs to iPhone with Bluetooth easily for music. Good product from Visio.
