Vizio V Series V51-H6 is a great product!
Since Vizio’s 2.1-channel V-Series soundbar is one of our favourite sub-$200 models.
We leapt at the chance to test out the 5.1-channel V51-H6.
Which is practically identical in price and available on Amazon for $199.88.
Thankfully, everything we loved about the 2.1-channel version
—Strong sound, simple setup, and a tonne of customization—apply here.
The main selling point of the V51-H6 is how many speakers you get—a three-channel soundbar.
Two surround speakers, and a substantial subwoofer
—But the soundbar is much more than the sum of its parts.
Vizio V Series V51-H6: Holistic Review!
This surround system is not just among the most reasonably priced options available.
But its software is also strong and adaptable enough to support extensive modification.
Should you so desire? If you don’t want to mess with anything, it’s very simple to set up and use.
For what Vizio is asking, the V-Series 5.1 sounds much better than it should.
The V51-H6 doesn’t sound significantly better than the basic 2.1-channel version for all of these speakers.
Which is a huge negative of course that comes along with that price.
Which is as much a commentary on the power of the surroundings as it is on the robustness of the core soundbar and subwoofer.
Even though it has a wonderful overall sound.
Movie theatres won’t be replaced anytime soon. But given the price, this system is undoubtedly a bargain.
Concerning the Vizio V51-H6
The V51-H6 appears almost identical to the 2.1-channel version when it is packaged.
But when you open it up, there is a lot more inside.
Vizio’s substantial five-inch wireless subwoofer and a 36-inch soundbar are still included.
But the supplied remote control is noticeably improved.

Vizio V Series V51-H6: Other Features?
You also receive surround speakers, of course.
For what Vizio is asking, the V-Series 5.1 soundbar sounds far too fantastic.
The surround speakers are not wireless, although the subwoofer is.
Therefore, wherever you set them in the room.
Keep in mind that you’ll need to run cords to link them to the sub.
Full room sound for a low price
There are many positive things to say about Vizio’s 5.1-channel V-Series surround sound system.
But its greatest strength is the fact that it offers such an extensive audio system at such a low cost.
The 2.1-channel version I tested last year was remarkably powerful, filling the room with music.
And featuring especially respectable bass for something so reasonably priced.
These expectations are met by the 5.1-channel system.
And it then goes above and beyond them because of the additional surround speakers.
During testing, I did discover one flaw: my living room configuration prevented me
Vizio V Series V51-H6: Positioning!
-From positioning the satellite speakers optimally far enough behind our sofa because of the size of my TV.
And the peculiar shape of the space.
But because of this, I can attest that even if you can’t put the speakers in the perfect locations in your house.
It is typically advised that surround speakers be placed at ear height behind the listener.
To the left and right of the centre channel), they still add significantly to the mix.
The 5.1-channel system was sampled over weeks.
Gives me plenty of opportunities to experiment with all of its surrounding modes.
And software upgrades.
Without a shadow of a doubt, the V-Series 5.1 soundbar sounds much better than Vizio is charging.

Has Sound bar Channel!
If you want clear stereo and mid-channel soundbar audio, this is where you can find it.
You may even acquire a powerful subwoofer right here if you want to feel rumbling sensations in your chest.
There’s no denying the sheer number of drivers present in this 5.1-channel system.
Adds robustness that goes well beyond the average 2.1-channel soundbar.
And is in a completely different universe compared to standard TV speakers.
This is known as the full surround effect, which refers to how well-placed and discernable audio from the satellite speakers is.
The full surround effect will vary depending on the level of mastering in the source content.
Also Has LDC Remote!
An LCD remote is called Joy.
The usual soundbar remote lets you change the level of the soundbar.
And the subwoofer displays the results on several LEDs on the soundbar.
They may change from white to blue to indicate that the soundbar is in Bluetooth pairing mode.
Or they may increase from one to five to indicate that the volume is being increased.
The voice prompts announce “Movie” or “Music”.
When switch between sound settings is also common in contemporary bars.
The majority of the time, these systems perform perfectly.
Final Verdict!
But it has only been in the last few years that they have mostly become cross-brand functional.
The remote for the V51-H6 remove all possible doubt.
By clearly allowing you to choose between the system’s multiple surrounds presets.
And modes and to change the volume of different speakers.
You might not require a remote with such a display for every soundbar/subwoofer combination.
But you’ll be extremely happy you have this one because of all the changes the V51-H6 enables.
