You have any amazingly clear and simple way of explaining all this. Super straight forward, no fluff or funny gags. Truly a rare gem on KZfaq. Thank you!

I purchased this VIZIO V-series 5.1 for the living room awesome sound, easy setup and works like a charm!

You are the most professional thorough unboxer I haven't seen and I've been watching KZfaq videos of people unboxing for a long time you're very thorough clear into the point and you break it down in so many different categories that are necessary and no other unboxing really breaks it down the same way I subscribe to your channel and I'm going to be watching it's a beautiful thing when a person get on here and they really explain if a person just like your speaker thing is the video I'm watching now about the Vizio speakers if a person can't cook that system up after watching your video something's wrong and it ain't no settings in his TV

I own both the Sonos arc and Bose 700 complete systems. A good friend just bought this system. This soundbar sounds excellent for the price paid. Only use it in small rooms. But if the placement of the speakers is right, and room is small enough , then this is all you need. Great job Visio.

Apart from having a smooth and minimal design, Vizio’s V-Series 5.1 speakers with a mediatek chipset, delivers such rich and vivid sound. Impressed by Vizio here!

Hey thanks for your review. I just bought my new Vizio V-series 5.1 channel sound bar to replace a old surround sound system & decided to check out a video (after already had bought the system basically because of the price) & came across your video which helped me immensely to understand my system a great deal from the unboxing, setup, overview, & review. Very detailed video. As far as the sound bar I'm happy with my purchase & the sound is great. I wish that the rear speaker were wireless but other than that I'm very happy with it.

Just purchased one of these. I was specifically looking for a budget soundbar. When I saw this system was only 50 dollars more (I did find it on sale) than most sound bars I was browsing through, I didnt mind upping my budget a bit. Im glad I did. Im really surprised at the overall quality of the system and sound. I wish I could adjust my midrange, but this works perfectly fine. Your video helped me a lot in my decision. Thank you. Honest.

Yesterday (Black Friday 2022) I went to Best Buy expecting to purchase the Vizio 5.1. To upgrade from my Vizio 2.1. Walked around to test a few others before dropping the $200. I listened to a Sony 3.1 with the Atmos technology. It sounded amazing. So I dropped $400 instead. Took it home. Set it up. Sounded nothing like it did in the store. The voices were ryatal clear but the bass could not compare to the 2.1 that had already had and loved. So I returned the Sony. Exchanged is for the Vizio 5.1. It far exceeded my original expectations. The voices are much clearer than the 2.1. That’s due to the sound bar has 3 speakers vs 2. And the bass rumbles the room as I’d hoped. I do not have a large cave, but it works for me. The room is filled with sound. Best $200 purchase/refund ever!!!
