VIZIO 5.1 Soundbar SE, Wireless Subwoofer, Surround Sound w/Dolby Atmos & DTS:X, Bluetooth Speaker, QuickFit™ Compatible – SV510X-08 (New, 2024 Model)

I've paid more money and more equipment over 30 years that never performed nearly as well as this! You have all the right adjustments that you can make for your specific tastes and the remote is on your phone. I leave it on all the time and it automatically picks up the correct type of sound and goes to the right speaker. You can feel the base and create your own little bubble. My wife was not all that excited about it until she heard the difference for awhile. This is one of those times I've received more than I paid out for the system. The set up was flawless. I had purchased another system which was more expensive but I sent it back within 24 hours because I couldn't get it to set up with blue tooth and there was no Customer Service. Well spent money!!

I originally got the ultra-cheap (short) 2.0 version of this bar for small TV in our summer house and I was impressed with the quality. So I finally decided to replace my $600 Yamaha soundbar at home. I am super impressed with the quality and functionality of this bar. Volume normalization (DRC I suppose) and dialog enhancement is the best I've ever seen, and for the price this seems ridiculous. It works flawlessly via HDMI eARC with my LG TV and Fire Cube. The only negative I found is that it doesn't include a remote but it works flawlessly with both TV and Cube remotes so I don't think an issue. Additionally it's a nice touch that settings are adjustable via the bluetooth via the App - it'd be a hassle to change them otherwise.

I love this Soundbar’s sound, so much so that I replaced or acquired the same model for 4 other smart TV’s. For $159 for 5.1.2 it shreds a $2500 Sony 3.1. Works great with Sony, Samsung, and TCL, however with Pioneer, the TV often and unpredictably loses the sound bar and switches itself to internal TV speakers. It’s rarely used in the basement and mostly it’s the kids who don’t even notice the sound difference, so I haven’t had the inclination to debug it. The subwoofer makes the windows shake. The super long cables for the rear speakers plug into the subwoofer and are literally magnets for the robot vac’s that prowl the house. I swear they are programmed to always engage any wire or cable in sight. I find them doggedly trying to get around whatever obstacle I’ve put in place to stop them attacking the wires. Packaging was well constructed with thick cardboard and ensured a dent and ding free delivery. Setup was intuitive and relatively painless. I am still wondering what the HDMI Out does on a soundbar? I connected it to one of the only 3 HDMI In’s ports on the TV, but when I select it, nothing happens. No Signal. At the very least they should have a banner landing page and a GUI interface to the soundbar’s controls. When we got a new TV, I mistakenly thought I had found the best brand and Holy Grail of Soundbars, and bought a pricier Vizio with 225W that came with NO HDMI Out port and NO remote, only a QR Code link to download the remote app. It’s got nowhere near as crisp trebles or smooth base that this model features. If Vizio had a “Suggestions” box, I would recommend that they add a cheap but useful webpage interface to configure the devices. Functionality similar to routerlogin.net, if you’ve ever configured a Verizon home WiFi network away from it’s default settings.

My home theater uses a now $600 soundbar with separate powered subwoofer from JBL, and this Vizio performs with higher quality in some aspects and simply expectedly less powerful in others. It is definitely AMAZING using it in my guest room and renders a similarly cinematic theater experience beyond expectations. While the onbard TV speakers are adequate, the tweeter and subwoofer punch from this unit are truly incredible and seem like magic to someone like me born four decades ago. Music is lively with instruments and voices clearly distinct, movies boom with bass swells from orchestra strikes or explosive action, and video games are quite engaging. The app is a little bit of a pain to setup, but once is enough and then easy to access; the numerous settings available are quite appreciated and make perfecting the installation easy. I especially like the height adjustment and the “clear dialog” mid-range adjustability, and that separate inputs remember separate settings. The review bot for my review wants me to talk about cord length for some reason, but that’s not really germane and kind of asinine.

First of all, why isn’t there a remote, nobody should ever have to download an app or buy a remote separately with a sound bar. This is just absolutely asinine, asi-ten, asi-eleven, all the way up to asi-billion! Wtf kind of absolute stupidity is this, and the options are not great on the app. More of a way to try and sell us movies and other apps. Second complaint, this soundbar is an updated version of my older 2022 model. I bought the newer one for my parents because they loved my soundbar, the rear speakers have an option to play all sound through them. So those shows and Netflix movies that you can barely hear the dialogue, the 2022 model allows you to hear that dialogue easily and keeps me from turning my volume all the way up. It’s is the absolute best 5.1 sound bar system I’ve ever used. The 2025 one is great for cranking up and getting sound and bass, but you have to crank it up to hear dialogue on some movies and shows. 3rd complaint. The 2022 model also has an additional hdmi port that I directly hooked my XBOX up with. This one has no such port. Not sure why there are so many down grades with the newer model! Some positive notes. The sound bar attaches directly to the bottom of my Vizio tv with ease. Just use the provided screws and the soundbar slides right in. Like I said before the sound is great. Real clean and crisp. The subwoofer is smaller and easier to fit under my bed for great vibrations. But it does not seem to be as big as the 2022 model. Slightly Smaller sleaker speakers, sub woofer, supplemented shorter soundbar, simplify the space superbly.

BUYER BEWARE! While the item itself is working fine and looks good, it doesn’t come with a remote; volume up and down worked with the tv remote but that’s it; if you need to access any other functions, you must use an app called Vizio Mobile however said app DOES NOT work in Canada. I thought of giving my review one star, but I’m sure the soundbar could have been a great addition to our tv viewing experience. IMO, Amazon.ca should remove it from the site, or at least inform Canadian buyers of this issue.

Lo bueno Me quedé imprecionado con la calidad de sonido y potencia que tiene para su tamaño el sonido Dolby Atmos impresionante, la app no funciona a la primera . Hay que ingresar tres veces en la app y entra bien y así configuras bien y puedes cambiar los niveles, lo malo . No dice vizio en la bocinas parecen chinas eso si es bajar la calidad ,por qué en otras series como la M si viene bien identificada con la marca vizio . Pero quitando ese detalle es buena barra excelente sonido, redescubrí mis seríes .y películas con esta barra .con mi receiver pioneer que tenía anteriormente y que era solo dolby digital y dts primeras versiones, no se escuchaba el detalle del audio como está barra . Como lo dije antes ese dolby atmos es genial y la música apesar de que no trae Twitters se escucha super bien , valen los 5000 que pague por ella .

Es buenísima por el precio que pague. calidad -precio justo

Tiene buena fidelidad y es fácil de vincular con la TV. Me hubiera gustado que las bocinas fueran completamente inalámbricas

Excelente servicio, llego antes de lo esperado y todo funcionando bien
