Woot consistently sells this item missing all of the cords and remote. Then they offer you a ten dollar discount to make uo for it. Pathetic. Still haven’t found enough suckers to take all of these incomplete products off your hands? Shameful.

Mine came with everything – received it last week.

I have this set (not from Woot, Costco I think). Not that impressed with the sound, barely an improvement over my Samsung TV’s built-in speakers. And the bass sounds really “separate” from the rest of the audio. I probably should have spent more on something better.

8

If you don’t want to spend more than this, don’t want to run wires, and don’t want bigger speakers in your room, and your only goal is that it “sounds better than the TV speakers”, then this could be a good fit. It gets decent reviews on Amazon.com.

You won’t get “rich, powerful bass” from a little, low-powered 5" driver. That’s physics.

If you are willing to spend more and don’t mind bigger speakers, there are better-sounding options.

My sons bought me one of these for my new RCA 55 inch 4k HD TV. It rocks my socks off. Nuff said!

I bought one of these new from Costco and am extremely happy with it. I compared it to every competitive unit that Costco and Best Buy had up to the $250 mark and in my opinion this was the best although new it only cost $125. I have a Vizio TV and was able to operate the sound bar with the TV remote. I’ve been recommending it to friends.

Installed mine on Saturday. Sounds great, much improved over the 50" Vizio stock speakers.
I agree with the comment about the sub sounding “separate”. Maybe a slight bluetooth delay.
Connecting my phone via bluetooth for music is a nice plus.
Mine came with all accessories.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago when woot had it on sale. I got it fairly quickly. This is to replace an older, smaller Vizio soundbar I was using.

Hook up was quick and easy. I have a Vizio TV and the way I connected it is that I turned off the TV speaker and left the default soundbar settings. This way the soundbar and turns on and off with the TV. For the subwoofer all I had to do was plug it in and it automatically mated with the soundbar. This was a very east set up.

As for the sound, it’s ok, not great. As TVs get thinner sound has gotten crappier to the point where on some shows the dialogue is unintelligible. My old cheaper smaller soundbar had better low midrange sound. This new one has better bass, but there is only so much a tiny speaker can do. Overall I would say I am happy and this is an ok price for what you get.

Others have complained about missing parts. My unit came very well packed and nothing was missing. The speakers were in as new condition. The cables I got were all in brand new packaging. The batteries were fresh and ran the remote without a problem.

There are 5 inputs: two analog stereo, one digital via RCA connector, one digital optical and Bluetooth. There is no way to observe which input is active. The input button on the remote and sound bar steps through the four wired inputs. The sound starts after what seems like a considerable delay. Therefore, it is hard to troubleshoot when there is no sound. A newer model has lamps that indicate which input is selected. The newer model also has bass & treble controls. I don’t know how the subwoofer volume is controlled on either.

Craigthom may be right about the effectiveness of the woofer. The specs show “Sound Bar Frequency: 50 Hz - 19 kHz, Subwoofer Frequency: 50 Hz”
Frequency response doesn’t mean much without the specification of a falloff value (expressed in db) What does “Subwoofer Frequency: 50 Hz” mean? It is unlikely that the subwoofer does not produce any sound above 50 Hz. It may be that the newer model with tone controls, and no subwoofer, has similar bass sound when the bass is boosted.
However, it is no longer valid to rate a woofer based on the cone size. I think that Bose made that invalid almost 45 years ago.

16

If you search for actual tests people have done on their speakers, you’ll find all that Bose has proven is that marketing works.

They don’t even publish frequency responses, claiming that how it sounds is what’s important. Then they convince you it sounds good in a controlled environment with controlled music sources.

Size and power do matter for bass. Air needs to be moved.

Most people have never heard low, clean, accurate bass, so small drivers are fine, especially if they just want booms for explosions and stomping robots.

A frequency generator and an SPL meter are the best way to tell how accurately speakers are producing sound. Boosting midbass may sound impressive, but it’s not the same as reproducing lows.

packing this up as this is being read, got it on last woot sale, remote would not work, and off on button on soundbar itself would not operate the unit.not my first vizio soundbar, and a bit sad about it not working.Sunday woot told me no replacements available, and customer service sent me a return tag, and this morning this sale came up again???

I’m sorry. CS wouldn’t have information on upcoming sales.

What you write is plausible. I have a question: headphones often sound very good to me. Am I hearing very low bass?

I was under the impression that the principle of the powered subwoofer is to use brute force, rather than resonance, to drive the cone at low frequencies.
I wonder if there is a similarity between the audiophile and the diamond purchaser. In the case of the latter, if the appreciation of the quality requires an expert with a high power loupe, what is the benefit to the consumer?

After they talked to you they realized they had enough broken and incomplete units coming back to offer them for sale again. Yay!
