SoundBar Rocks Review by DaSheriff

Had been looking to improve the quality of sound from my 42inch Vizio . I didn't want to more than 2-3 hundred dollars on speakers , one friend suggested a Bose system .
Well the price was around $500 and some change , I'm not wanting good sound to that price tag . Well finally came across the sound bar on the internet , and then saw 3 of them in our local Wal-mart . Snatched one up so fast and took it to the check-out , well trust me , I have been pleased and happy beyond words . Easy to connect , matches perfect with the Vizio T.V. & Blue ray player , and the black glass stand t.v.stand everything is sitting on. And the quality of sound is awesome , I ididn't get the system that has the wireless sub-woofer , but the sound bar alone is on point , and i enjoy my t.v. even more now .

Excellent product Review by Harold

I purchased a 32 inch Vizio HDTV 120 Hz from Sams. The sound was very good, but I wanted a little more. I purchased the VSB200 Sound Bar and am very happy with it. I really like the fact that it keeps the volume the same during commercials and as I change channels. I recommend Vizio highly.

Simply Amazed Review by TV Buff

I had purchased the 32" Vizio SV320XVT and was blown away by all of its features, even the sound, which on most TVs are usually lacking.

I wasn't really looking for a sound system for my TV, but happened to stumble upon this speaker bar mislabeled as being $89.99 and decided i should pick it up before they realized it was $110.00 less than it should have been!

All I can say is WOW! This sound bar is so rich and full and even has enough bass for me that I don't need to purchase the wireless subwoofer, which is good since I live in an Apartment complex.

If you are on the fence about Vizio products, don't be. So far, I'm 2 for 2 on excellent value, exceptional quality, and products that have never ceased to leave me or friends amazed.

Vizio Sound Bar Review by Monroe

I needed something to replace my surround sound but I did not want to pay a lot. I happened to run across this in Walmart at a much cheaper price and decided to give it a try. I already have a Vizio 32" TV so I figured the sound bar should be good. It sounds wonderful. I am very satisfied so I think my next flat panel tv will be a Vizio.

Sounds GREAT !!!!!!!! Review by greg

Excellent product. Great sound improvement. Review by Bud

Bought one of these bars today from one of Uncle Wally's stores to use with our 42" Vizio. It is great. That it pretty well levels the sound volume from station to station is super. Keeps the wife (with hearing aids) off my bum. She thinks I change the volume station to station. The overall sound improvement over the Vizio TV speakers is well worth the price. I like this bar without the woofer because I have no line of sight spot to place the woofer in my TV room. When I told my wife I did not want a woofer she said she thought we agreed several years ago that we did not need another dog. Don't laugh, seriously, in case the Vizio people read this, the big drawback is that the sound volume and mute can not be controlled by my satellite remote or the Vizio TV remote control.

Awesome Product / Would recommend Review by Joe

I just purchased this from Wal-Mart and I'm so pleased with it. I had a big receiver with all the surround speakers. This takes up alot less space and the sound quality is AWESOME! I would recommend using the Digital Audio Cable for the best sound. Very nice product!!!!

Very pleased Thanks Vizio

Pretty Darn Good... Review by Robert

I purchased a 55 inch Samsung LED TV and all though the picture is awesome the sound is left to desire since because of it's slim design the speakers are on the back of the TV facing the wall and while using the wall mount from Samsung the TV is basically flush against the wall causing me to have to turn the volume up all the way to be able to hear it... A friend suggested the Vizio sound bar and I actually got a factory refurbished unit for only $89.99 online and I have been very impressed with the product. The remote control is the only "Negative" as it's a cheap piece of plastic but my universal remote was able to program and match up with the sound bar so I am able to control it from there. I have been so impressed with the sound bar I physically turned the TV volume to zero and the only sound I use is from the sound bar hooked directly to the TV via an optical audio cable for best sound... The sound is great and fills the living room greatly even with the vaulted ceilings... Even brand new at $149.99 at Wal-Mart this is a great sound bar for the money.. would highly recommend to any one looking to add an inexpensive sound bar to their system..

Great product for the price! Review by Dan

I purchased the Vizio VSB200 from Walmart on special for $128.00. Had a little trouble hooking up to my Panasonic 54" Plasma until I purchased an Optical cable and it works great. I had an RCA home theater system that wasn't in use so I took the Subwoofer and hooked it to my Vizio sound bar and together they sound GREAT.

The Best for the price Review by Kathleen

I bought the Vizio HD sound bar to go with my Vizio LCD 37" TV. I wanted to improve the quality of the audio of the TV. I did not want surround sound and all the several speakers as the TV is in the bedroom.. The Vizio sound bar was easy to install using the excellent directions that came inside the box. The Vizio sound bar is more than I hoped for and am very happy with it -- perfect for my bedroom -- would also be suitable for other rooms as well.. Vizio pays attention to detail with the packing. I would like to have longer cords for the audio red & white plugs. I am happy with the product and will be purchasing more Vizio in the future. Thank you Vizio!!!!!

vizio sound bar Review by Jim

I bought this sound bar at Wal-Marts and only paid $143.00 for it. The sound is awesome just wish I had bought the one with the subwoofer. Really like the true sound especially when commercials come on.. The volume stays the same.. I would recommend this to anyone...I use it with my 46" LCDHDTV Samsung..

another winner from Vizio Review by Tom

I recently purchased a 55 inch LCD from Vizio....we love the TV (our second Vizio tv) although the sound could be better on this one so we just purchased this sound bar. It actually sounds better than I imagined when we played a DvD, the bass is not too overbearing (also you do not have speakers all over the room) yet somehow it creates a nice mix of everything for what I would consider not too much money. Thanks Vizio for making another better than average product for a reasonable price vs. those well name brands that cost a lot more $$$.

love the sound bar Review by Larry

I bought the sound bar because it had the srs TruVolume eliminates undesirable increase in volume when commercials come on and channel to channel volume variances. Now I can hear more of the actors talking without the loud sound on some shows.
