The highs and mids are very flat. The center channel has almost a muffled, reverb sound to it. I am no audiophile by any means, but I tend to relate it to sounding like the speakers are at the back of large cardboard box. It's kind of hard to explain, but just know the sound quality of the mids and highs is not where it should be for this price range.
The subwoofer works quite well and will rumble the room. The bass is full and doesn't distort or boom at higher volumes.
The rear satellite speakers are rather quiet, but they do sound decent. The good thing is you can adjust the volume levels of center, surround and subwoofer so you can adjust as you see fit.
Overall this isn't a bad buy if you are weighting heavily the need for a strong subwoofer and satellite speakers. However, for myself, the soundbar is severely lacking in quality and is not worth the price. I believe the 2.1 systems is only marginally less expensive than the 5.1 and I certainly wouldn't pay that price for the soundbar.
I will be returning this and going with something different.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

adjustment for sound and background music

can I adjust the background music lower
There are no adjustments for background music on the sound system. You would control such things from the source system.

Does Vizio make rear speakers that are wire less to subwoofer or to soundbar

No. The speakers are satellite speakers. They wire to the subwoofer. To my knowledge, Vizio offers no true wireless surround speakers. That would require additional radios in order to get the proper stereo effect.
