lol he almost whispered it being plastic… thats how you know these kind of videos are paid sponsors.
Last
its really stupid to hang the display flat against the wall and have the sound bar out front like that
Revolving speakers? That’s brilliant..!! Thank you for the update, CNET..!!
I love sound bars in general
Beautiful looking system. To bad it isn’t good for movies. Great review. Thanks
That thing is massive… not sleek at all but cool idea.
Incredible!!! I am quite sure that the designer use to be of Sony’fan at that time when Sony used to have good quality for their appliances…
the moving parts of the bar make me nervous about longevity
Interesting
“While at 999$..”
Aight I’m gonna head out.
not good for movies?.….….….…so whats the point?
been using a Panasonic HTB370 for about 7 years. i think i’ll just stick with it 😉
Has Dolby Atmos and DTS X but “isn’t suited to movies”??? Cool👍
Wait 800 for a Spotify speaker that’s insane $300 is reasonable $500 might be bareable but it better nail the movies YouTube everything I throw it at
If you have any kind hearing problems all you need is a basic soundbar.
OKAY, C|NET, IT MUST BE A AWESOME UPDATED SOUND PROVIDER TO ENJOY MUSIC.…… SOUNDS!
Some samsung soundbars had this feature a few years ago already. An array of extra speakers that point towards the ceeling in addition to the front facing speakers to simulate surround sound by bouncing sound back down on you. No moving parts involved 🤨
My wife and I bought a Vizio TV and a Vizio sound bar. We are very happy with what we have, but this new system is very interesting. Our new puppy chewed up the remotes. But Vizio sent us a new one. Great product.
i listened to this and the Sonos Arc…and i prefer the Sonos especially with the 2 subs and the ONE SL’s for rears
Did he say newbies or movies?
For the price to have wires when Bluetooth is available not worth it.
999 bucks…not bad!
Idk I like the sound bar but I constantly have to adjust sound because things get constantly blown out of proportion
At 999 pounds lol what a waste ofmoney. For 999 buy a better tv with better speakers in it. I got a 55 inch ambilight phillips 4 k tv and it has atmos sound built in and sounds great…l have a subwoofer for base attached to it. All cost me 650.…this soundbar at 999 is a joke…seriously people pay this much? And it dont evem have rear speakers or left and rightones …lol…l guess theres people wtupid enough to pay these ridiculous prices.…oh and by the way…if u watch a movie with ambilight..hard to go back to a tv without it..its awsome.
Runs rings around sonos arc. Are you saying this because of the rears and sub that comes with it or are you saying even a sonos arc with a sub and rears is still sub par to this. And yes I know there is about 850 Us dollar difference in price for a full sonos. Also question, you made it sound like it’s not great with movies. Why else do we connect these to a visual display like a TV if not for Movies? Since you like to compare, why didn’t you also reference this system in comparison to Samsung high end HW-Q950T? Isn’t the HW-Q950T close in price right now to this Vizio?
I have a BOSE sound bar I bought in 2018 and the spatial audio from this device fills my entire room. It makes movies and games sound incredible. It feels like sound is coming from every wall in my room after I did a simple procedure to map out the room. The optional subwoofer isn’t even required. BOSE products aren’t cheap this model cost close to $800 but I don’t regret my purchase at all.
…click out of 5 and…we got it open

Yes thats how you convince people on how good it sounds…i.e. without playing a single sound on it. What a waste of time
900 with that money or less you could buy a good receiver a sub and speakers
NOW I CAN WATCH HENTAI WITH THIS SPEAKER
Watts RMS?
I have a 7.1 system with towers, bookshelves and a 12″, used for $1100
Is that an old school Samsung touch of color 1080p tv🤣. I think I have that same tv.
Slips in, “it isn’t suited for movies” at the end?
😂😂😂😂😂
Will this fit under a 65 inch lg cx on its stand
Perfect couple to the TV and its audio quality is so awesome. The combo of Vizio and Mediatek delivering great results.
The multi-directional surround sound aspect honestly seems intriguing. Even the mediatek chipset adds a power boost here.
I’m still using a Vizio soundbar from 2010 and it still sounds good enough…Although I do think it’s about time for an upgrade.
So if you the sub in the back do you still need to run a wire tv or is the sub wireless?
Wow, this guy makes me feel like I could get a job with Cnet.
When the motor dies, I hope you can at least manually rotate the edge speakers.
Checked all my settings repeatedly (both TV and sound bar) and cannot get this thing to connect to eARC. Input search indicated only ARC connection. TV is Sony A80K and eARC is enabled in settings. Does anyone know how to get this thing to connect to eARC (LED color magenta) and not ARC (LED color green).
