The soundbar market appears to be getting stronger with each new product cycle and Vizio has announced seven new entries for 2024 ranging in price from $99.00 to $499.00 USD. The most surprising development is the introduction of an entry-level model priced below $100 that supports Dolby Atmos for the first time.

QuickFit: This feature allows users to attach any of their soundbars to the bottom of a TV with two included thumb screws, sliding underneath the posts of the TV with just a click.
Surround Sound Format Support: Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Dolby Audio decoding are included with additional DTS Virtual:X processing support.
Tech Note: Keep in mind that for most of these soundbars, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X are reproduced virtually as there are no height-channel speakers (except for the Elevate SE – more on that later).
Enhanced Dialog Mode (Clear Dialog): This feature provides more even volume levels and dialog presence.
Bluetooth ver 5.2: You can use Bluetooth to play music from compatible devices, such as smartphones, or connect an Amazon Echo device to access Alexa voice assistant features or play music from the echo device through the soundbar.
HDMI-eARC: This feature passes audio from the TV to the soundbar using the HDMI-ARC/eARC connection on the TV and soundbar. This connection also allows users to use their Vizio soundbar remote to control basic TV functions, such as power, and volume. For select Vizio TVs, via HDMI-eARC the soundbar remote can access the TV’s settings menu. Also, the TV’s remote can be used to control the soundbar which eliminates the need for a secondary remote, integrating the audio control menu directly into the TV.
Vizio Mobile App: All of the soundbars are compatible with the Vizio Mobile App (iOS, Android) which provides access to settings (including bass, treble, and speaker levels) to fine-tune your soundbar listening experience.
From John Schindler, Vizio Vice President of Product Management: “Experiencing some of your favorite movies, TV shows or live events with sound as though you are in the theater or in the center of the ac4on is what makes the new VIZIO soundbars a league all their own,…We’re proud to continue innovating what is possible with soundbar technology and ensuring customers can experience the best sound quality possible, at any price point.”
Along with its technical enhancements, the 2024 VIZIO Soundbar lineup is designed to complement any interior decor; textures with satin-finished enclosures, and low physical profiles are designed to align with a TV and living space. This soundbar lineup places as much attention and care to design as it does on room-filling sound.
