What's great about it: Comes with everything you need, wireless subwoofer
What's not so great: Needs to have finer volume controls
If you are looking for a quality sound bar at a great price, this is the system for you. The fact that the subwoofer is wireless, allowing you to place it anywhere you want in the room, is fantastic. The rear speakers do connect via wires to the subwoofer, so you'll likely be placing the sub somewhere in the back of your room.
The sound on this system is excellent. The only thing I would change really, would be to have a finer volume control system. There seems to be too large a jump or decrease in volume sometimes with one push of the up or down volume buttons. Other than that minor issue though, I'm totally satisfied with my purchase.
Another great thing that you don't see too often, is that this system comes with absolutely everything you need to get it working in your home. I was all set to start digging through boxes to find optical cables, but lo' and behold, they were included in the box! Unbelievable! You get one optical and one digital cable, as well as the standard component cables. You also get a template and all the mounting hardware should you wish to mount the bar or the rear speakers on the wall.
All in all, I'm very impressed, even after a month of regular use. Thanks Vizio!
I would recommend this to a friend!

How do you connect to entertainment center? (Surround sound system)

Using this sound bar basically replaces the need to have a stereo receiver in your entertainment center. So you're really just connecting your various components (satellite TV receiver, Apple TV or Roku box, DVD player, etc.) directly to the inputs on the sound bar.

There are 5 inputs on this sound bar. 2 for standard component connections, 1 digital optical, 1 digital component, and one aux jack (for say connecting a CD player or media player that doesn't have bluetooth).

Speaking of Bluetooth, you can pair your phone or other device to this sound bar via Bluetooth easily using the remote control.

Hope this helps.

Can you control the center speaker volume to turn up the dialog only?

We want to be able to hear the dialog above the sound effects and music.
You can adjust the volume of the various speakers via the remote control. If you want the center speaker volume louder than all of the others, this is simple to do. Just press the "Menu" button on the remote, and on the remote's LCD display, you can cycle through the various settings, adjusting speaker volumes, treble, bass, night mode, etc.
