Looking for one or the other, but I see some people switching from surround sound systems to sound bars and other people doing just the opposite. Opinions? What say you?
Think part of it is the size, shape of the room. In a perfect world its surround sound. Under less optimal conditions and ease of set up a sound bar an be the way to go.
I had a pretty serious surround set-up before our move... I sold it off and bought one of these to hold us over for a while.
The surround sound speakers are 'wireless' in the sense that they plug into the powered subwoofer in the back of the room.
It's been absolutely awesome and I doubt I'll go back to my old AVR+Massive Floors (Polk) anytime soon.
Is that the vizio system?
I had a wired surround sound system when I built my house, but switched to a sound bar last year. We did it because it was less bulky and looked simpler for every day watching. Unless I were to build a home theatre with projector, I doubt I'll ever own another surround sound system.
My living room is impossible for a real surround system. Got a vizio bar plus sub and its great. Besides with little kids sleeping right upstairs, my days off cranking the explosions to max and enjoying the rumble are over anyway. Vizio bars get great reviews and I have loved mine.
