(NEW) VIZIO SB46312-F6 3.1.2 Surround Sound System w/Dolby Atmos

I installed the 3.1.2 sound bar in our outside patio area (under cover with 8' ceiling) to a Samsung QLED TV and it sounds great! Now I can enjoy Dolby Atmos media through Netflix, Amazon Prime and others. To maximize Dolby Atmos available media, I connected it up to the Apple TV 4K. Best thing I could have done. Netflix, Prime, VUDU, etc., have quirky requirements where Dolby Atmos is only supported through certain hardware, i.e., type of TV you have, etc. Apple TV 4K is the only device that currently supports all major streaming services with Dolby Atmos content therefore the positive plug for Apple TV in my review. Other streaming devices like Amazon Fire Stick, Roku, Chromocast, etc., do not pass through the Dolby Atmos from all the streaming services that the Apple TV 4K does. What good is a Dolby Atmos sound bar if the availability is so extremely limited by hardware/software requirements right? Netflix probably has the most Dolby Atmos content out there right now and it only works through LG OLED TVs (2017 or higher), XBOX One, Apple TV 4K and Windows 10 desktops. Who knows how long it'll be before Netflix starts supporting older equipment, if at all. Setup was pretty straightforward with the Vizio 3.1.2 soundbar. I connected it to the HDMI-ARC OUT from the soundbar to the ARC IN on my TV . My Apple TV 4K is connected to the one HDMI IN input on the Vizio. The remote control is fairly easy to use and will run your TV commands if you choose to use that exclusively. However, since the sound bar is connected through ARC and I have Anynet+ enabled on my Samsung, I was using the Samsung remote before getting the Apple TV device. Now I'm using the Apple remote exclusively and it works great. Regarding the audio, this soundbar is pretty impressive even without playing Dolby Atmos content. The "virtual height" mode option didn't really impress me much, it can actually make it difficult to understand voices through regular stereo content coming from your cable or other provider. Kind of depends what you're watching, e.g., movie, sports, news, etc. However, you can switch the height mode from On, Off or Virtual depending on your room configuration. The other neat remote control feature is if you don't know what type of audio format is currently coming through your sound system, you can press the "info" command on the remote and it speaks what format is coming through. In other words, a voice will come over the sound system and state: "HDMI-ARC (tells which connection you're using), DOLBY ATMOS/DOLBY MAT." Or "HDMI-ARC, DOLBY DIGITAL/DOLBY DIGITAL+," etc. Good for troubleshooting if you believe you're supposed to be getting a certain format over your system from your streaming source. The subwoofer really puts out some great thumping lows and it should given how big this thing is. You can crank this soundbar up too and it'll more than fill the room with sound to the point you can't tolerate it. That's good in my book, some sound systems don't have the output and can be disappointing. Never had any issues with the subwoofer connecting through the wifi. If you're looking for a moderately priced Dolby Atmos sound system without rear speakers, this is for you. Glad I bought this when Vizio drop the price $100 just recently, appears it's back up to $799 again.
