Setup is relatively straightforward, though a multi-component system such as this takes a bit more effort than your average soundbar. Riding in the package are a litany of cables and other accessories, including power cables for the bar and sub, connector cables for the dual surround speakers, multiple digital and analog connection cables (including HDMI), and the same recycled remote packed with virtually every Vizio bar, complete with basic navigation keys and a Casio-style digital menu screen. The pint-sized satellites and soundbar are similarly adorned, with the latter spanning a healthy 46-inches across and bearing a rubberized control pad on top.
A sizable bass port sits at the backside next to inputs for the included satellite speakers (more on that below) and a power port. It’s outfitted in Vizio’s signature black-and-silver color scheme, including a layer of black grill along the top and front that’s matched by slick aluminum slabs at the sides for some impressive style. It didn’t take long to discover what was weighing down the package, as we nearly slipped a disk pulling out the massive subwoofer block. Opening the L-shaped box is also an awkward affair, flush with foam packaging, a sizable accessories box, and plenty of flaps and inserts to unfurl. This thing is heavy, so lift with caution. We’re used to some heavy lifting when it comes to Atmos bars, but the SB46514 wins the prize for most awkward gear haul. We spent some quality time with the bar to find out if Vizio’s new Atmos value proposition delivers. The twist? At $1,000, Vizio’s version undercuts those rivals by as much as $700.

Fitbit Versa 3īad names aside, the SB46514 offers a powerhouse of features, including discrete surround sound and four upfiring drivers to closely model Samsung’s popular HW-K950 and HW-N950 bars, both of which helped set the standard for potent Atmos sound in an all-in-one solution.
