Sound bars are often thought of as replacements for full 5.1 home theater systems, but the Vizio VHT510 is a sound bar that is a 5.1 home theater system.

VIZIO VHT510 Wireless Home System Review
Big Picture. Big Sound.
By Chris

While we'd like to think that everyone who invests in a flat panel HDTV also spends a little extra for a decent sound system, the fact is that most HDTV owners simply rely on their TV's built-in speakers for their auditory enjoyment.  And while TV picture quality generally trends upwards every year, the same cannot be said for TV sound.  The thinner a TV gets, the less room it has for speakers, and speakers that lack the necessary cabinet volume tend to sound thin and anemic, with no bass and limited dynamic range.

The Vizio XVT3D650SV may not be the first 65-inch LCD HDTV or the first 3D HDTV to hit the PCMag Labs, but it is the first set that uses passive, rather than active shutter 3D technology.

VIZIO XVT3D560SV Review

Tuesday, April 5, 2011

 

Performance

Before I describe the 3D performance of the XVT3D650SV, let's talk about 2D, which still is over 95% of the content available today.

This VIZIO employs edge-lit LED technology. Though it has progressed a long way in the last few years, I still prefer the quality of the direct-lit (full array) LED method (like in the VIZIO XVT473SV that I reviewed last year). And I'm still impressed with the PQ (Picture Quality) of top end plasma TVs.

The Vizio XVT3D650SV may not be the first 65-inch LCD HDTV or the first 3D HDTV to hit the PCMag Labs, but it is the first set that uses passive, rather than active shutter 3D technology. While at $3,699.99 (list) it isn't exactly budget-priced, it's actually quite reasonable for a set of this size, especially since you get four pairs of 3D glasses in the box.

I can’t imagine that too many of your LCD aficionado friends will be too impressed when they see your brand spanking new Vizio XVT553SV sitting in your living room while the set is turned off.  But, wait until you see the change of heart after you turn this budget friendly television on.

Let's be frank. The VIZIO brand doesn't exactly connote... greatness. You might think it's a bargain-bin TV, or one for your dorm, or one you get because you simply can't afford something better. But this econo-panel apparently kicks ass.

An ever so slight upgrade in size from the XVT423SV ($1,279.99 direct), Vizio's 47-inch XVT473SV brings all the same features from the company's XVT line of LED HDTVs.
