Pros

  • +Sounds great for the price
  • +Includes eq
  • +Multiple sound profiles
  • +Atmos support
  • +Dts support

Cons

  • -Hard to find with separate subwoofer now
If you could find the Vizio M series 2.1 bar with the seperate subwoofer I’d recommend it. Still sounds great for the $$ had eq, sound profiles, atmos and DTs support.
