As a result, its sound can vary from room to room, but you can always use its bass and treble adjustments to get the best possible sound. There are some sound enhancement features to help you adjust its sound to your liking, though it lacks room correction like some of the more premium bars on the market.

Out-of-the-box, you get a bass-heavy sound that brings the energy to bass-centric genres like hip-hop and EDM, so you feel the thump and rumble while voices and lead instruments remain clear and detailed in the mix. The bar's versatile performance makes it a great choice for listening to music and TV shows. That said, you have to wire the rear speakers to the subwoofer to get them to work, adding a lot of extra cables to your living room. For example, helicopters on screen seem like they're flying right overhead from one pinpoint location to another. Its rear speakers have up-firing drivers, making it seem like sound effects come from around you. Its subwoofer adds the rumble in action-packed scenes. As a result, audio stretches all around you when you watch your favorite movies, with a wide soundstage that makes it feel like you're sitting right in the middle of the action from the comfort of your couch. This premium 5.1.4 setup offers a unique design with sides that automatically rotate upwards when you watch Dolby Atmos or DTS:X content. The best Vizio sound bar we've tested is the Vizio Elevate.
