What soundbar are you using with this TV?

I am using the BOSE Cinemate 1SR with the P55VT60 and I am very happy with it. Getting past the painful sticker price was rather difficult, but in the end, it is well worth it. I justified the purchase as an investment with the TV. The ability to calibrate the soundbar to several viewing areas in the room is a big plus. Also the quality sound it produces is impressive, especially with heavy action movies or during NFL or College Football broadcasts. It is not equivalent to a full sound system with multiple speakers, but in my opinion, it the quality sound is right up there.

I am not using a soundbar- I'm using the tv speakers only. Living in a NYC apartment it doesn't make sense to have a loud home theatre system

I am using a full 5.1 system with components from Yamaha and Oppo, and using some very old, but still very good, speakers from M&K; and a sub from SVS.

I use a Definitive Technology SoloCinema XTR, but it is a center channel and not a soundbar.

The Vizio 54" one, it hangs just about 1" longer than each side & so looks good underneath. Sound is much improved, for me it was a problem catching all the dialogue in a lot of films for these old abused ears & this has a dialogue enhancer & a treble control to adjust for help in this. Also it is one of the few soundbars that has a separate center channel ( for dialogue) without a subwoofer (too much for the neighboring apartments) but a sub can be added. Sounds much better than the set's built-in speakers & occasionally in some recent films the audio will sound mildly 3D, not a home theatre set up but improves the sound.

I use a 7.1 system. Center speaker is an old sony that was leftover from one of those DVD/7.1 combo jobs.

I'm not using a sound bar. I am outputting the audio to a Harmen Karden 2700 AVR and Martin Logan MLT-2 5.1 home theater speaker system

Use a digital cable to connect the soundbar to your TV - Bingo its works very well . No other cable or connection is required

I do not have a soundbar but my Colby is hooked up to a sound system that was installed in this house by the former owner. I am not sure if this helps you.

only tv I have found it works with was an older model flat screen tv my room mate has. my advice would be to return it or sell it as used and buy a sound bar with optical out as an option. newer tvs no longer use the old red and white audio in option.

I don't have a sound bar for that TV. The sound isn't an issue. It is in a room that includes my kitchen and an attached family room (about 500 square feet).I have a 75 inch Samsung in the much bigger living room and I got a samsung sound bar for that TV and it is great.

I installed my sound bar through my bluray player. I don't know if you're trying to plug in from your tv or what, but the sound should come from whatever is actually playing the media.

I'm looking at the Polk 50 soundbar now. I believe this is going to be the route I go with. Thanks for the input.

I am thinking seriously of getting one soon. TV is great but the sound bar would be a good idea.

Depends on the size of the room. The tv's sound is adequate for the room I have it in, but if you are using it in a large room, and don't want a full stereo system, get the LG NB2530A sound bar as an addition. It has a 100 watts, (2) subwoofers, bluetooth and sounds pretty good. Amazon has it for $169 right now.

Lame, but so was a sound bar. I Spent a $1k on a Bose surround sound system. Now the sound quality matches the great picture.

i was told that getting any sound bar that is universal is always the best bet. of course the stronger the better. i would go with a sony sound bar but that's me, its a matter of preference. good luck

I must have missed this. Vizio sound bars are very common (Costco). The fact that Sony doesn't support it is a major oversight. I'll have to send mine back. Tried the learn code on the remote and it doesn't find a match. Vizio is listed on the TV, just not audio. Too bad.

1. They are both Vizio they should be lol.2. I have mine connected to a 55" Sony.3. Turn up volume to TV all the way and use sound bar as permanent audio source.4. You're gonna love it.

Did you ever have any luck the green line issue? I have the exact same issue with the Soundbar I just purchased. At 1080i it looks fine, but at 1080p to my 1080p Toshiba 42" Regza I get green lines.

When you say "sound", are you referring to the sound from the TV itself or sound from external speakers (e.g., soundbar)?

No idea. At least, I never figured it out. The sound bar is about the worst conceived pieces of hardware I have encountered in a while. Avoid it.

The sound bar will need a cable INPUT from TV AUDIO OUTPUT and should have come with one of these, optical cable, RCA or 1.5 plug.
