VIZIO V-Series 5.1 Home Theater Sound Bar with Dol

Pretty Amazing for the Price !!!!
**BACKGROUND**: After Years of waiting ( mostly to see when micro-LED Technology would be firmly established and the price not too insane ), we got ourselves a 75QNED90 LG Living Room TV. Awesome TV, but just so-so sound. Dialog wasn’t sharp enough ( for my old ears ) and often buried by background noise/music. Anything with any significant Bass sounded “rubbery”. I thought we could go all discreet components ( AV Receiver and at least three somewhat decent speakers, no sub ), but my lady didn’t want to see all that, so no joy there. I had Never heard a Soundbar that I thought sounded decent before, but it seemed to be the only way to solve our sound problems. **SHOPPING**: Started reading and reading and stumbled on VIZIO’s V51x-J6, after reading dozens of on-line articles, blogs and Amazon Reviews. I had started looking for a 3.0 or 3.1 soundbar, but kept coming back to the VIZIO V51x-J6. The reviews ALL seemed to REALLY LIKE THE CLEAR DIALOG CENTER CHANNEL, which has it’s own level adjustments !!! That and the Really Great PRICE had me “looking at it hard”. I kept trying to find anything better for under $300 and I could not, so I bought one. **SETUP**: Set it up last night. Easy Setup. TV feeding the VIZIO via ARC, the VIZIO pretty much did everything, all by itself. I had to press the two power buttons, to sync the wireless sub with the sound bar, but that was about it !!! Our ROKU Ultra Remote ( which had been controlling everything in the room ) still did !!!! *****RESULTS*****: It started out-of-the-box Way Better than the TV Sound. A little fiddling using the VIZIO Remote ( IT is Excellent, with LOTS of adjustments ) and we soon had a Brilliant Soundscape !!!! We spent several hours listening to all sort of music, tv, movies and YouTube videos, adjusting a bit here and there. AWESOME SOUND !!!!! …especially for the Price – Sound Way Better Than I could have Hoped For, at a Price that made us both Very Happy !!!! The only ( tiny ) flaw is the sub, which is a bit “thumpy” on certain rock music tunes, and altogether Too Present above the rest of the mix. We turned it down to the lowest setting, and it’s fine… Pretty good actually. Listening to stand up bass on Bluegrass, then electric bass on some Albert King+SRV tunes, you could actually Clearly Hear every bass note being played ( versus the usual clumps of mushy, muddy, pounding bass that come out of most Subs ). SWEET SOUND, GREAT PRICE. Should have done this a long time ago !!! Will post again if anything new happens, but on day-two, WE ARE REALLY, REALLY HAPPY !!!!!! – Don&Deb –

Great sound for the price and easy setup.
We wanted a 5.1 surround sound system without the big name expense. I have yet to be unhappy with Vizio products and this V-Series 5.1 Home Theater Sound Bar with Dolby Audio, (this is not the DTS unit) is no exception. It comes with wall mounting hardware for studs or sheetrock. The EQ settings on this are simple to use and adjust. It is louder (decibel wise) than our other Vizio 2.1 and sounds even better. Perfect amount of bass and volume for a 250sq ft room. If you really want it to, the bass can “boom” but it all depends on your ear and what you like. My wife and I like to feel the bass and enhance the sound experience but I don’t want my “trunk” rattling, though this can do just that if you want it to. Treble and Mids are also great, not tinny, not muffled. It is very sound forward and one of my favorite features……Speaker volume adjustment! Setting the Center Speaker volume up and Dialog Boost volume up means you can actually hear what is being said without having to turn on captions because of the ridiculously loud music that always seems to overwhelm movies. You will have to play with the adjustments, it doesn’t just come out of the box sounding perfect (although it does sound great out of the box). So just remember to be patient, I know that is hard sometimes but trust me, it is absolutely worth it. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS…can’t stress that enough….you know who I’m talking to.My parents have a Sonos system that was over $1600 and I really don’t notice a difference, other than the cost. Maybe it’s worth it some how…because some people think more money means better product “Ohhh Shiny” (sometimes that is true, not this case) but if you want to save money and still have a really versatile 5.1 system that is GREAT for movies AND music, give this Vizio 5.1 system a try and see for yourself and before you think it, no I am not being paid nor was I given this thing, I just think it is really that good.Just to give some added proof, I have been a guitarist for 27 years. I’ve had several cheap and high end amps, I have been around what is considered High quality sound systems ($100,000+) in recording studios. That isn’t to say I know more than you, but sometimes it is nice to know that someone who has experiences that you may not have had, can help you with making the best decision for your lifestyle and budget. I really enjoy helping people and I honestly do think if you buy this and take the time to set it up the way it works best for your listening experience, you really will be happy and save money and family and friends that come over will probably be asking “What brand?” and “How much was it???!”. That has happened to me and my wife already…Good luck, happy listening and be happy! You deserve it!

At this price point, overall great sounds and quality, highly recommend!

Honestamente no tenia una alta expectativa de este producto, ya que su precio es bastante bajo a comparación de otros productos en el mercado. Y puedo decir que estoy más que satisfecho con la compra. Cuenta con un sonido bastante bueno, no se distorsiona y los bajos se escuchan muy bien. Yo este producto lo compre pensando en usarlo para ver películas y series, y hasta el momento me hace sentir como si estuviera en un cine.El paquete incluye 1 barra de sonido, 1 subwoofer y 2 bocinas surround. Además, trae consigo un cable de sonido optico, un cable de HDMI/ARC, sus respectivos cables para conectar las bocinas surround al subwoofer, que dicho sea de paso cuentan con un gran largo en tamaño, trae un cable para conectar la barra de sonido a luz y uno para conectar el subwoofer a luz, además de un control y dos pilas AA.Uno de los puntos que me encantaron es que el subwoofer es inalámbrico, por lo que no tienes que preocuparte por tener demasiados cables recorriendo tu habitación. Además el control tiene una mini pantalla LCD para ver la acción que estas realizando.La barra de sonido cuenta con una entrada de sonido optico, una entrada HDMI/ARC, una entrada de cable Auxiliar, y otra de Auxiliar/VX, en la cual puedes conectar tu echo dot para utilizar con el teatro en casa, asi como una entrada de USB para poder reproducir música desde esta. Otro detalle importante es que cuenta con Bluetooth y para conectarlo es bastante sencillo. La barra cuenta también con una tira de leds las cuales te indican el sonido que la barra tiene al subir o bajar volumen, entre otros indicadores.La instalación es bastante sencilla y rápida.En conclusión, este sonido no le pide nada a productos de mayor precio o marcas reconocidas, por el precio puedes encontrar una gran calidad.ACTUALIZACIÓN: Después de un mes de uso sigo muy satisfecho con el producto, he probado las distintas configuraciones de sonido y todas son excelentes. El único detalle viene el el Subwoofer, ya que en ocasiones se puede escuchar un tipo de ruido en este, pero no es algo molesto.
