 This design means you can tuck the ray into a media stand and not have to worry about sound bouncing off of the nearby surfaces. And since the Ray doesn't have a mic for voice assistance, you don't need to worry about whether it can hear you if you place it in a media stand either. As just about every other Sonos product, the Ray has touch sensitive buttons on top to start and pause music and adjust the volume on the back. There's a power jack setup button, ethernet port, and optical audio jack

 After spending some time with it, I'd have no problem recommending The Ray to anyone who wants an easy way to upgrade their Tvs audio but doesn't care about having the best speaker that supports the most formats. For a lot of people, particularly those with smaller living rooms, the Ray will be just the right sound bar for their space. [Music] You.

 Swordplay and arrows flying by filled the space around the narration in a well-balanced mix, and the rumbling explosion and massive thud of Sauron's helmet hitting the ground after its defeat were a good opportunity to hear the Ray flex its base muscles. [Music] The Ray pulls this off despite having much simpler acoustics in the beam. It includes two center mid woofers, two tweeters with split wave guides to broaden the speaker's sound stage, a bass reflex system that provides a surprising amount of low end performance, and four Class D amplifiers. even though my older beam doesn't support Dolby Atmos, its larger size and more complex speaker array give it a big advantage over the Ray

 The Ray might be an ideal choice for a first sound bar to upgrade your Tv's audio and then use it to build a more complex setup down the line by adding other components. That said, the Sonos sub costs a whopping 749 dollars. It's hard to imagine someone buying a ray and then spending three times as much on a subwoofer. While the Ray is meant to be hooked up to your Tv, it's also a capable music speaker

Sonos Ray review: Big sound from a budget soundbar

 Can you see a place for it in your home? Don't forget guys! We do offer an extended six-year warranty on all Sonos products, as well as a 30-day extended returns policy, so if it's not right for you, you can always send it back. Our team are always here to help so get in touch for more personal recommendations. Thanks for watching and I'll catch you in the next video.

 before we do, I want to just take a closer look at the design of the Sonos Ray. Now you can pick one up in a color choice of black or white the same as most of the other Sonos products. And firstly, you'll notice that actually the ray looks very similar to the beam in terms of the materials. They both use this sort of polycarbonate material with a perforated grille, which is great because as with all Sonos products, their design ages really well

No Dolby Atmos, no Hdmi, no voice assistance, and a price of 279 pounds. Is this new sonar soundbar right for you? Or are there just one too many compromises? Let's find out. [music] Now you guys know I'm always honest in our videos. I'm not gonna say a new product is great when actually it's not

 At first glance, it doesn't tick all of the boxes that you might look for in a new sound bar in 2022 like Dolby, Atmos, Hdmi, voice control, that sort of thing. But you have to ask yourself, why do you want to tick those boxes? Are you looking for atmos Because you're always watching the latest and greatest films and Tv shows and you're really after that full immersion when you're watching your content. If not, you might not actually need it in the first place. And if you're the kind of person that just wants to upgrade your Tv audio with better vocals with more clarity and detail, plus a great speaker for music that fits right into a wider system that can be grouped with your whole home, then The Ray might actually be for you and save you some money over, say, the Sonos Beam

Sonos Ray Review: NOT what we were expecting

Hear what you’ve been missing with the newly designed VIZIO V-Series™ 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar The V-Series 2.1 offers immersive sound, a sophisticated new look and HDMI connectivity for the highest-quality audio plus sound bar volume control from your original TV remote. For pristine clarity, two full-range speakers at 96dB SPL are tucked inside a subtly textured, all-black sound bar that stays clean and lives discreetly beneath the TV, while the included 5” wireless subwoofer adds deep, booming bass to movies and music. 4K HDR content is enhanced with Dolby Audio™ for the highest-fidelity sound, and DTS® Virtual:X™ sound enhancement adds room-filling, floor-to-ceiling virtualized 3D sound, placing you in the middle of the story or front row at your favorite concert venue. The new Voice Assistant Input gives you the convenience of a voice assistant you are already accustomed to (sold separately) and lets you operate it right through the sound bar for an upgraded audio experience. With its powerful sound and easy setup, the VIZIO V-Series™ 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar can help turn your living room into a captivating home theater.

RTINGS

If you're looking for an affordable bar with lots of thump and punch in the bass, check out the Vizio V Series V21-H8. It's a 2.1 setup like the Samsung HW-A550, but its dedicated subwoofer can reproduce a more extended low-bass, making it a solid choice for listening to bass-heavy music. There's even a subwoofer level control that lets you adjust how loud the subwoofer gets.

Its default sound profile is quite bass-heavy, so you feel the rumble in bass-heavy genres like hip-hop and EDM. The mids are still quite balanced, so dialogue in TV shows is clear and detailed. You also have some options available to help customize its performance, including bass and treble adjustments and a dialogue enhancement mode.

It lacks Atmos support, and its surround sound performance isn't the most impressive. You won't find a full graphic EQ, limiting your ability to adjust its sound, especially in the mid-range. Still, if you want a budget-friendly bar with a boomy bass, it's a good pick.

TechGearLab

While the very low price of the Vizio V-Series 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar V21-H8 had us momentarily questioning our ears, we can assure you this soundbar sounds better than several more expensive competitors, while offering a dearth of useful features and presets. There is a powerful subwoofer that Vizio recommends placing next to or behind the audience, where increased proximity to the rumbly bass makes for an exciting experience. Dialogue enhancement and night mode also make for a great viewing experience at lower volumes.
Though this model is solid for the price point, it can't hold a candle to the higher-end model in terms of overall sound quality. While powerful, the bass can sound muddy and overwhelm the rest of the mix. When we did turn the bass down, the weak mids and sometimes harsh treble became more apparent. This isn't too much of a problem when watching action films at high volumes, but it makes for a poor experience when using the soundbar to listen to music. Still, this soundbar is a monumental improvement over any built-in TV speakers, and if your bank account can't absorb a high-end sound system to pair with your newly acquired flat screen, the Vizio V-Series 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar is a very solid option.

DO NOT BUY - VIZIO V-Series 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar With Wireless Subwoofer - Model V21-H8

  The Roku Smart Soundbar seemed like the perfect solution.  I used it for a few weeks and ended up returning it.  Here is what I experienced:

Next is to buy another Roku Ultra remote for his and hers.  If you haven't lived that way, its great.  You can pair two remotes to one Roku, FYI.

Despite its ridiculous name, I was incredibly jazzed about the Vizio SB3621n-E8&nbsp;soundbar when it came out in 2017. It was a great-sounding, affordable soundbar&nbsp;and has remained my favorite value over the last three years. The Vizio V21 reviewed here is its natural successor and enjoys a number of upgrades beyond a simpler name. The new bar adds HDMI, changes the cosmetics and includes an intriguing smart speaker connection

 Instead I compared the new $180 Vizio against a couple of other 2020 models, the $250 Polk Signa S3 and the $300 JBL Bar 2.1 Deep Bass, but it's obviously worth keeping in mind the significant price differences.Compared to those two products, the Vizio's secret weapon is its DTS Virtual:X compatibility. The feature, first seen in Yamaha speakers, enables humble soundbars like the V21 to emulate a surround system, and it performs very well

 Ty Pendlebury/CNETSoundbars are black blobs for the most part, heard and not seen, and the V21 follows the industry template to the letter: basic black with a mesh cover and a slightly textured plastic top. The topside also offers a series of controls including input selection, Bluetooth and volume control.&nbsp;Though the length of the soundbar is no longer in the name, as with the SB3621 (Sound Bar,&nbsp;36&nbsp;inches,&nbsp;2.1 channel

5mm analog input and another, all-new 3.5mm connection for your "voice assistant speaker" (read: Amazon Echo Dot).       Ty Pendlebury/CNETThe idea behind the "VA" (voice activated) input is noble enough. You connect your smart speaker to this port and the soundbar switches to the input automatically when it hears a command

Vizio V21 review: Best soundbar under $200

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

I am interested in upgrading my soundbar and wish to control it using Google home voice commands, e.g. changing the volume and current input. I currently have a Google mini in the TV room which I use to turn on/off the TV and Hue lights. The one device in the room that Google can't affect is the soundbar though, any time the volume is too soft/loud I have to find where the kids last placed the remote. Most soundbar Google assistant descriptions describe using the soundbar to receive voice commands like a Google mini, but I'm not finding descriptions if the soundbar can be controlled using commands like "turn up the volume on the Vizio" (regardless of what input it is currently using). I'm currently looking at the Vizio M512a-H6, has anyone had any experience with this?
Thank you!

Do Vizio soundbars support changing the volume using Google Home?

After extensive research for soundbar/subwoofer ordered a Vizio. Pre-read quick guide prior to arrival. Got all & was baffled at remote being impossible to open, so after googling & still couldn’t open, called Vizio. Connection to wherever the call goes to was hardly audible, finally Rep suggested I use a small coin to pry the remote open, which I gently did, and the the ENTIRE remote fell apart with pieces flying everywhere, and her suggestion was then for me to just not use the remote

After calling Amazon who then called Vizio it took over 20 minutes for Vizio to agree to send new remote (not expedited) even though it was in notes referencing my telephone number that one of their reps caused the issue by directing me to do something that caused the damage. Worst customer service

 Wireless subwoofer that looks top of the line, looks modern and small. You can place it anywhere in that room as well. Has the better options than the other sound bars and it comes with the subwoofer on top of that, all the other sound bars don't have voice assistant for 119.

 So if it's going to be sitting on your mantel, it's going to be on your right side. It'S got the hdmi also on the right side, which makes sense, because that's where your hdmi cables are on your tv on the right side, it has the sound bar hdmi arc. You peel here, the auxiliary vas are on the right side from the back. Here

 I didn't want too much base in my basement. I have the lg 700 one with the dolby atmos and the bigger sub. That thing is enough power. For me, this is for my family room

 This is the v21-h8 36-inch sound bar, and this is a budget sound bar from costco for 2021 2022. So this is a brand new model that packs immersive, theater sound and i'm excited to unbox it the price 149.99. It'S on sale right now for the holidays for 119
