So I saw a refurbished 40in Vizio 5.1 Smartcast Soundbar, ie Chromecast built in, on Groupon for $200.
Got it setup today and mounted. Bar on the wall under the tv, rears on our table behind the couch, and sub under the same table.
So far it sounds great. Hooked up via HDMI (ARC).
My only complaint....the volume is controlled through the TV. But, at full soundbar volume, the TV is only showing like 30 of 100.
I know the bar is maxed, but I wish the numbers matched up, Full Volume on Soundbar = 100 on TV.
I couldn't find a way to sync the 2, so I guess I will have to survive.
Anyone else with this Bar able to match tv volume 1:1?
