The Vizio V Series V21-H8 is a great soundbar for the price, offering powerful bass and an expressive midrange. It is easy to set up and has a fast UI performance. However, it can be difficult to link other devices via Bluetooth and there have been reports of sound quality issues after some time of use.

Connectivity

My first experience with Denon: firmware not so great

Turning the TV on doesn't cause the Denon to realize a monitor is now attached and the AVR will continue to refuse to output anything on HDMI until the AVR is power cycled with the TV on. The only way I have been able to prevent this from happening is to turn on "Fast Start" mode on the TV which effectively keeps it turned on all the time (but without driving the screen if the TV is "off"). The idle power of the TV changes from less than 1 Watt to 15 Watts in this mode. What a waste of energy just so the Denon will know a TV is always connected! Again, this could be a strange interaction between this brand of TV and the Denon, but this speaks to the lack of interoperability testing

Do Vizio soundbars support changing the volume using Google Home?

I have v21 h8 and it is been very difficult to set up. Assistant can link via Bluetooth but then you cannot have other devices link to the soundbar. There is voice assistant aux in but sadly no ga gh product has 3.5 mm jack
