5.1.2 Elevate SE Soundbar, Wireless Subwoofer, Surround Sound w/Dolby Atmos & DTS:X, Bluetooth Speaker, QuickFit™ Compatible – SL512X-08 (New, 2024 Model)

Perfect and definitely worth the money. I got it for just over $300 USD, it is the 2024 refresh model, got everything needed to get all its features working, such as dolby atmos. Extremely clear audio, hdmi connectivity is effortless and very appreciated, it does Bluetooth as well and that works super seamlessly and easy. The bass is fantastic, booming, wayyyy more than most weaker listeners would need. Im a bass guy so I truly appreciate the thunder and boom when im watching something. The rear speakers are super nice as well, very high quality and setup was literally a few minutes. Just plug stuff in and set it where it needs to go and boom. All done. I loveeeeee the adjusting side speakers on the soundbar, you will likely want them up or set to wide if you have the speaker slightly lower than your sitting or laying position, 10x more immersion and louder, clarity also is better with the up firing drivers. The app is absolutely fantastic as well, provides a plethora of features and options for the soundbar, way more than any other soundbar I've used, samsung, bose, LG, onn, etc. So Bravo vizio. Just buy it. Thats all I have to say. Nothing is better than this for the price. Even the ultimeas cannot compare. At least not with the sound quality and immersiveness.

This is a great budget system that makes some compromises, but not in the sound quality department. Full disclosure, this was purchased as a Prime Day deal so the pricing was VERY attractive. I would not have paid $499 for any surround system for my use case right now. I was skeptical that this system would work in the space I was intending and have the ability to fill the room with sound but it was both remarkable, and unbelievable at the same time. The subwoofer really kicks and and the sound bar and satellite speakers are really clear and can handle lots of volume. The soundbar projects clean audio really well. What you give up: Mostly connectivity. All you get here is one eArc HDMI port and one USB port. You get Bluetooth, but no wi-fi streaming. You do not get a remote. My old system had a remote I never used it so this is a personal preference. The Vizio App gives you lots of ways to customize the sound through both EQ settings and other advanced sound customizations. After a bit I had nailed down some sound profiles I was really pleased with for movies, TV, and music. The app is good and works fine as a remote but from time to time it will loose Bluetooth connectivity with the speaker or it can lag. Most of the time it will reconnect fairly quickly but you have been warned. You also loose the ability to see numeric volume numbers on your tv or speaker but it was not a deal breaker for me. In summary: This system is a keeper for me and I was actually shocked how full and immersive the sound is with this system. It was well worth what I paid for it and recommend it for the person who is either budget conscious or needs a secondary system for an extra tv in either a bedroom or spare room. It was also by far the easiest sound system I have ever setup, very intuitive and automatic.

I like the sleek design and the feel of the material on the speakers. I have an LG tv and there was no problem setting this Vizio surround sound system up to it. The main speaker hooks up to your TV and the satellite speakers plug into the subwoofer. What I really appreciate is that the satellite speakers come with long enough wiring so that you can really put them where you want without worrying about running out of length. My previous system only had 3ft wiring. This system the wiring is at least 10 ft. The bass from the subwoofer is outstanding (depending on the movie you’re watching of course) but I could feel the bass through my couch! Only negative I would say is that it does not come with a remote of any kind. You have to download the Vizio app and control the speakers from the app. However, the app does have some pretty cool features. You can change the color of the LED lights on the speaker, personalize your sound levels, and test each speaker individually if you think one isn’t working properly. I just think it should just come with a physical remote as an added option. Not everyone is tech savvy. With that said, I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable surround sound system. This system will give you rich sounds and level up your entertainment for sure!

Absolutely, love this soundbar, setup. Very easy to install with my vizo TV. Sounds excellent with easy voice detection and great bass. The rear surround sound speakers are small and easy to place and have great sound output as well. There were no installed directions, but you really don't need them as itself explanatory. The price was a little high but worth it in the long run. Shipping was incredibly fast and unpacking. The box was very simple. It does not come with a remote, but you do not need one as it integrates with your TVS, arc HDMI. Using this output, I can control the volume with my TV's remote and it's very easy to work with. The only thing I do not like is the gimmicky colored led bars on the end of the soundbar, you can turn them off though. I understand why they added them. So you can see when it's a dtx s send signal and it points the speakers upwards automatically, which is pretty cool. If you're on the fence, I highly recommend in getting this and don't buy the extended warranty as they are very robust and built very well.

What an awesome sound you get out of this system! I upgraded from the Vizio 5.1 surround system which I loved because I wanted to experience Dolby Atmos, but couldn’t afford a more expensive system with a receiver and dedicated height speakers. The Elevate does not disappoint. For a soundbar, this is hands down the best one I’ve owned yet. You can choose from 3 different EQ modes: Movie, Music and Direct and then you can fine tune the volume levels of all of the different speakers and sub. I use Direct when watching content with Dolby Atmos and Movie for everything else. It sounds fantastic, and it shakes the room just like a movie theater. Some people were annoyed at the fact that this unit does not come with a remote. I was fortunate to be able to use the remote from my previous Vizio system, without the need to buy another one. Honestly, the app is all you need and I rarely grab for the physical remote. As long as you connect the bar to your ARC/eARC port then you can control the volume with your tv remote, as you would expect. I strongly suggest using the app so you can tailor the sound to your liking and play around with the different effects like True Volume which narrows the dynamic range. The cables connecting the rear speakers to the sub are generously long and the subwoofer is powerful for its modest size. Set it up the way it instructs you to: soundbar directly below your tv, rear surround speakers behind your viewing position, with the sub to your side. Personally, I think all of the speakers sound a little bit better if they are positioned a little bit lower than your ears. This creates the most satisfying immersion, but there are alternate configurations if you desired. I’ve had zero issues with the wireless connectivity between the rear speakers/sub with the soundbar. I wasn’t wild about the idea of motorized height speakers on the bar itself. What happens when those motors eventually fail? Considering the high quality of this system though, I see no reason why they wouldn’t last as long as the unit itself. I can’t say enough good things about this product.

Little update: After having the setup for a few weeks, my biggest issue is that the bluetooth connection takes a long time establish. This is only REALLY a problem when switching between audio modes for music and back for viewing shows. Movie mode has too much bass for music to be enjoyed and music mode lacks the full surround sound for movie immersion. It is here I wish it did have a simple remote with a toggle. Original: I "upgraded" to this 185w surround system from a 600w Samsung 2.1 soundbar from a couple years ago... I was skeptical, but the Atmos intrigued me and let me tell you... ZERO regrets in purchasing this 5.1.2 system. It sounded amazing out of the box and minimal fuss with settings thanks to modern eARC and CEC. I mean, wow... No physical remote, but I highly suggest getting the app (which IS the remote and visual EQ) to toggle between music and video mode - the difference is very noteworthy. Otherwise you just use the ARC or CEC of your TV/streamer to control the volume, power, mute. It came with everything need in the box as well, from rated HDMI cable to Velcro cable ties - which is quite nice. We tested with Spotify playing some tracks from the musical Wicked, I appreciated the isolated violins and cellos in the rear speakers. And watched Oppenheimer in HDR10+ with 7.1 Dolby Atmos (which processed to 5.1.2 for the Vizio. Considering that TV has become a regular recreation for my wife and I, the money is well spent and the device will see daily use. For a dollar a day... It's paid for itself by the end of the year!

This is a great soundbar, head and shoulders above my previous TCL soundbar which died. The Atmos sound is incredible, and it was very easy to set up, really just plug and play! The app is a nice touch (I already use an app for my TCL Roku TV) and it's very easy to use. While you can ho in and adjust a bunch of settings, the only thing I did was up the vocal quality for movies and shows. Music sounds phenomenal, and the regular Dolby sound is clean and clear. It's a solid piece, and it looks great! As I don't have a Vizio TV, I can't speak to the ease of mounting it to the TV, but I have it in front the TV, and the profile is low enough where it doesn't block the screen. At least on my TV, it adjusts the volume by two, which doesn't cause any issues. The HDMI ARC works great... I don't have to swap apps to adjust the sound. I usually keep it on the Movie setting in the Vizio app.

This system delivers good sound for the price. It has plenty of power to fill my 270 Sq Ft living room with sound and has solid bass performance. Dialog is easy to understand. Separation between the front channels isn't good but that's the case with most soundbars; you need separate front surround sound speakers to get better separation. The Height speakers also don't work very well. They're supposed to simulate ceiling speakers, but I don't hear any sounds reflected off the ceiling and my ceiling is normal height. Despite these minor issues the system works well. It makes action movies come alive! So, why did I give it only three stars? The first reason is the Height speakers mentioned above. They seem more of a gimmick to raise the price rather than a useful feature. However, the main reason I didn't give it five stars has to do with the way the bar mounts to the wall. If you have a compatible Visio TV, it can attach directly below the TV with the included screws. With any other wall mounted TV it has to mount flush to the wall! The problem is that the power and HDMI cables come out below the soundbar. You have to run the cables under the sound bar and then up the side. I used double stick tape to secure the cables in several places under the soundbar but it it's not a good solution. Ideally Visio should have provided a channel in the back of the soundbar either to run both cables out one side or out the top of the bar.

Tenia un sistema Vizio 5.1 modelo M51 compatible con Dolby Atmos y la verdad suena muy bien en general pero la hacia falta bajos mas intensos. Compré este sistema hace un par de dias y la verdad si mejora la experiencia, sonido mas potente y con bajos bien definidos e intensos, la probe con Gozdilla Minus One y se escucha increible los efectos asi como con Dolby Atomos con Estado Electrico en Netflix. Detecta automaticamente el formato de audio Atmos y las bocinas laterales giran hacia arriba encendiendo la luz que le configures. Otro punto a favor es la calida premium de los materiales del equipo, se siente de muy buena construcción y luce muy bien en la sala. La conexión bluetooth la hace rapido y sin problemas, el sonido con musica va de bueno a muy bueno dependiendo el tipo de musica que te guste y si eliges el EQ preset DIRECT tiene bajos mejor logrados. Finalmente se debe hacer incapie en que desde la publicación menciona que el sistema NO TRAE CONTROL REMOTO DEDICADO O FISICO, todo lo controlas desde la aplicación por celular, pero honestamente funciona muy bien y solo lo ocupas casi al inicio para dejar a tu gusto los niveles de audio y presets, despues de eso lo usas muy poco. El control remoto de mi anterior sistema lo tenia guardado y casi ni sabia que lo tenia. Todo lo controlas desde el control de la TV (conectado a un puerto HDMI ARC/eARC). En resumen: excelente sonido para películas que si eres cinefilo o simplemente te gustan mucho las series y peliculas, con este sistema las vas a disfrutar al maximo y aunque el costo parece un poco elevado, vale cada peso.

Vengo de un M series - M51ax-J6 de la misma marca y siempre pensé que era perfecto, lo único que le hacía falta eran unos grabes mas potentes y quizá un poco mas de potencia en las bocinas pequeñas, al adquirir este creía que sería lo mismo pero mas bonito y no, mejoró en todo eso que faltaba, sin duda fue una excelente compra, mi única queja es que no tiene control físico, pero no es tan indispensable y con la app puedes ajustar las opciones de audio como más te guste, incluso cambiar el color de la luz de la barra, etc.

Excelente
