AIO supports decoding for both Dolby Atmos and DTS: X, along with DTS Virtual: X, designed to create a sense of expansion for even stereo soundtracks through digital signal processing (DSP). Any virtualized 3D effects are minimal to my test best, but even the baseline support for the two main audio formats is a win over this price.
Simple sonics
The quick setup and simple operation of AIO makes it a breeze to integrate into your TV room. You first want to download the Vizio Controller app shown in the Fast Start menu. Next, connect the power and provided the HDMI cable between the bar and the HDMI arc port of your TV, wait for the tone to add the bar to the app, and you should be in business. With only a single input and cable (with a USB port that can play wav files), there is little opportunity for error. A drawback to the minimalist approach is that AIO does not connect to older TVs with one optical output.
Without a remote, the Vizio app takes on heavy lifting. You will find two major (and very similar) sound modes in music and film, the latter which adds a little more zhuzh. Taping the Personalize tab gives the main EQ adjustments, while effects such as night mode and virtual: X can be accessible under advanced audio. Your TV remote should automatically control the volume and power, although some older TVs may require “CEC” to “CEC” in TV settings. Some newer Vizio TVs allow you to access Vizio Soundbar settings from the TV menu directly and/or attach the bar below the TV with Vizio's QuickFit Mount System.

AIO offers streaming in Bluetooth 5.3, accessible by taping the Bluetooth symbol in the app or the bar itself and then selecting it in your phone's Bluetooth settings. When paired, you can wake the bar to stream audio by changing from the TV input to Bluetooth in the app. That's easy to use because AIO lack of Wi-Fi support leaves fancier streaming options such as Spotify Connect or Apple Airplay.
Big bang
When it comes to performance sounds, Aio packs a wall. I am not ready for how much dynamism and general blow it brings to the table for its size, especially in action scenes or dramatic moments where sonic tingling is lying. Bass will dissolve for a system without a separate subwoofer. High-registering effects such as strings and horns get strong and intact, immediately adding more gravitas and verve to intense moments than just your TV. All of this I estimated the cost of AIO around $ 200 to $ 250 before I checked the price tag.
