I made this comprehensive guide with all I could find on what you can possibly do to fix the issue of your VIZIO wireless subwoofer not pairing with your VIZIO soundbar. So I browsed through some threads on Reddit and realized the issue is more common than I expected. Things went pretty great for a few weeks, but all of a sudden my VIZIO wireless subwoofers started acting weird and kept disconnecting with my soundbar. Literally everything sounds better on this thing, even talk show clips on YouTube.VIZIO is a company I have been hearing a lot about, and when my TV soundbar died I took this opportunity to invest in a VIZIO M series soundbar. While I went into 2022 thinking that Vizio was a wack brand that should be avoided at all costs, I exited the year feeling like scoring one of its sound bars was among the best things I’d ever done for myself. TL DR: The Vizio M-Series 2.1 sound bar isn’t just proof that an affordable sound bar can be mind-blowingly good-it’s proof that people can change. Not yet used to the sound bar, I literally paused the show, thinking someone was playing music outside my apartment, in the street of course, I realized that the bar and subwoofer just made it sound like music was coming from a different part of the room. Case in point: In one scene, characters are eating at a diner, having a conversation as music plays in the background. I’m also rewatching Friday Night Lights for the sixth or eighth time (don’t hate), and the Vizio makes even the quiet moments feel immersive. (Spoiler alert: I definitely will.)īut this bad boy isn’t only good for action. Watching a Fast and Furious movie as I give this piece a final read, I briefly questioned whether I’ll ever even go to the movies again. Later on, while screening Return of the King, as Sam and Frodo scaled Mount Doom, it felt like lava flowed around me as I, too, struggled to ward off the grip of evil. I felt like I was at the movies, watching Sauron hammer people mercilessly and literally sensing the vibrations in my body. Within minutes of starting The Fellowship of the Ring, I was floored by the depth of bass and general fullness of sound the speaker and subwoofer brought into my apartment. The experience of watching TV and playing games with the sound bar is amazing, especially if you’ve never owned a good sound bar. Ultimately, however, I decided that I deserved a subwoofer, and that I didn’t care if my downstairs neighbor had to listen to a deafening run-through of The Two Towers’ iconic Battle of Helm’s Deep. After surveying the single-piece sound bars, I found that some of Vizio’s models are actually quite beloved, like this top-rated Vizio M-Series with over 2,000 reviews. I set out first to find an all-in-one sound bar, since my living room isn’t humongous and surround sound wasn’t a priority of mine. I knew that to reach multimedia paradise, it was time for an upgrade. It had long been on my apartment to-do list to pick up a sound bar for my TV (a TCL 5-Series that I really like), which has a great picture, but sub-par speakers, as most factory TVs do. Recently, I had a week off work and made it my goal to do two things: rewatch all three Lord of the Rings movies and finally start playing Elden Ring on my Playstation 5 (I dubbed it “Ring Week”). The new Vizio M-Series 2.1 sound bar has changed my perception of the entire brand. If we were playing a word association game a year ago and you said “Vizio,” I would have said “garbage.” But I no longer believe any of this. I know I’m not alone I’m now a Vizio apologist/defender, as I’ll get into below, and almost every time I tout the brand to people, they’re shocked. This is all to say that I’ve had an emotional bias against Vizio for a long time. At the time, I thought it was the sickest TV ever but as more and more of my friends picked up better tubes from Samsung, Sony, Hisense, and Phillips, I started to feel the Vizio was a cheap, sub-par alternative to brands that represented “The Good Stuff.” When the Great TV Wave™ finally hit my family, I went to Walmart with my dad and we ended up picking up a nascent, modestly sized Vizio flat screen.
