Top reviews from the United States
There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
How? The packaging was perfect, instructions were easy to read and they gave me more than enough cabling to complete the job or mount the unit (bracket, screws and wall template). I've spent 3-4 times as much on similar units from Sony and others and I'm kicking myself because this unit sounds just as good if not better. For my 20' x 14' Family room, the bass is deep and booming and adjustable depending on the source I feed it. So far, no audio sync issues with any sources or streaming apps. The Bluetooth cracked a few times when I was about 10 feet away, but I'm not sure that was a problem with the unit, but rather the stream or interference. Otherwise, syncing took about 30 seconds from my iPhone and Spotify was up and running and sounding VERY full a spacious. Some tracks sounded a bit "bright" but I've grown to expect this from any and all digital formats regardless of what I'm listening to, or listening to it on.
Speech is clear, mids are snappy and the bass unit (placed next to my couch) rumbles a good part of my sectional at mid-way turned up. I won't dock it a star, but a small LCD screen with basic information might have been nice to include on the unit, but for the cost its not noticeable. Ohh, another nice thing is when you turn on the TV and the Optical cable sends a signal to the speaker, it automatically turns on the unit. It synced perfectly to my DirecTV Remote and was found with the codes built into the DTV service.
Overall, with about 8 hours of listening time, I can confirm you wont find a better unit for the price. Had I paid $400 for the speaker, I'd still feel I had gotten a great deal.
Several days later the other unit in the house ALSO started having a crackle coming from the right side of the sound bar. Coincidence? I checked some reviews and was seeing the same thing. Needless to say the replacement also started having this issue within days so I had the pleasure of showing up to the UPS store with 3 of these to send back. I'm going to replace it with the D6 in the hopes that whatever manufacturing problem that was causing this has since been addressed.

Third party reseller on Amazon "Best Deals you deserve" won't reply to my warranty requests. I guess I am out of luck here.
However, there was one consistent criticism I've seen. The sound bar has a reputation for crackling from certain frequencies. Subwoofer sounds fine, fairly punchy and accurate. But the sound bar is interesting. When I installed mine it was working just fine, sounded great. But after a few short hours I heard it. The crackling. This thing ever so faintly will crackle randomly. Sometimes turning it off and on works. Sometimes unplugging it and waiting and plugging it back in makes it go away for a while. But it just crackles randomly... I don't understand how Vizio let this through any quality checks.
So should you buy it?
No.
I dont think this product is good enough even at this cheap a price point. People who buy something this cheap most likely arent looking for top notch sound and earth shattering bass. People who buy this just want something better than TV speakers. Something to provide a little more bass and clarity. I can't see this speaker being worth the endless bothersome crackling.
Stay away from this one, I'd spend a little more dough on something with higher quality.

Top reviews from other countries
It's a real kick in the keester that the speakers died 3 days after the 30 day Amazon return policy. Not to mention the fact that it died after ONLY 1 month's use! *facepalm*
I will make sure to update this review when I receive my warranty-replacement unit after it's arrived and (hopefully) has a longer life to experience this longer.
I wish I would have spent more time thoroughly reading the reviews on these speakers. Looks like my experience is far from isolated...
When the TV is on, it will play the sound but it plays it VERY loud and we have to manually adjust the volume. Even pausing the TV causes the speaker to go back to Bluetooth seeking mode and then unpausing it starts up very loud again, which is a real issue when my baby is sleeping.
Overall a solid choice.
