Get the 5.1. I have that soundbar from 3 years ago. That version is undoubtedly gonna be better than the one I have. It's not gonna touch a dedicated system with a receiver and all of that but it's better than a "simulated" surround sound setup for the mere fact that it actually comes with rear speakers. And there are three separate speakers inside the main soundbar so it truly is "5.1".

If you go into knowing you're not gonna get the best sound, you'll be fine with it. What's your living situation?

Yeah it's fine for an apartment. Probably ideal honestly. It can get loud but it shouldn't be pissing off neighbors like some bigger setups would.

I’m salty tho I’m running thru optical because vizio wanted me to run on HDMI 1 but that’s where the fire stick is and out of all 4 HDMI ports hdm1 is the only one that I can get hdr fukk vizio for that

Still sound dope on optical ....




So I’m scared the speakers will blow....

I have a house and still went with a soundbar. I wanted at least a 5.1 setup, and the hoops I was going to have to jump through to get wires run everywhere and the fact that I had to have a receiver and speakers sitting in the living room, it was just too much. I went with the JBL Bar 5.1. The fidelity is not as good as my receiver and speakers but it's still quite nice and it gets the job done.
