Sound Bar question?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Im thinking about getting the Vizio VSB200 Soundbar, but will i be able to hook up my old 5.1 computer speakers to it? Or can someone tell me how to maximize the vsb200 with other speakers or subwoofer . Also, i been reading online about the difference between 2.1, 5.1, 7.1 but still kind of confused. So far, the difference is number of speakers connected and sound? can anyone give me a better answer?


Thanks in advance!

You may connect a powered sub-woofer to the Vizio. However, the sub-woofer should have a variable output to match volume levels with the soundbar. The VSB 200 is basically a two-channel device but simulates 5.1 and does a decent job of it.

Very few soundbars do true 5.1 and none that I know of will do 7.1.

The VSB 200 is very efficient and can fill a very large room with good clean sound. Voices are quite clear and dynamics are very good.

This is a real sleeper of a bargain at the current prices on-line and at Wal-Mart and Costco.
