I'm comparing this and the Vizio sb36512-f6 that was posted for $300. Anyone have input while I'm researching specs? Based on the reviews, I'm really on the fence about whether the sb36512-f6 is worth twice the price of this one.

Im contemplating the same thing lol 😬

Let me know what you think. I'm just not sold on twice the price but I don't want to skimp out on the experience one might bring over the other while I have the chance to get some of the best systems on sale

Are the 2 rear speakers wireless?

They are wired to subwoofer. So I use them in front with Front Surround mode. Doesn't create that rear effect obviously though

I bought this system from Costco and can confirm they are not. They need to be wired to the subwoofer.

Overall this is a pretty solid system for the money, I think this is an ideal set up for an apartment as it can get plenty loud without disturbing neighbors.

I think the 2 side speakers are wired to the wireless sub, I think.

I think so too. Only subwoofer is wls. Which makes this deal okay okay. I got same system of Samsung with wls speakers 2 years back for $160

I just got it from costco and connected via Optic cable. Much better sound then LG 8570 internal speakers. Subwoofer is great powerful as well.

buy it from costco if you are member to get extended warranty

Im pretty sure its the one I got at costco a few months ago. They arent wireless but they plug into the sub which is wireless. So it works out well. I enjoy it.

Best Buy Price Matched It for In store pickup, not seeing shipping option.

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/vizi...Id=6416784

I ordered the ZIO M-Series All-in-One Sound Bar (M21d-H8 for $80 shipped from Target but haven't tried it yet. Considering spending double to get this deal with the wireless sub and 2 additional speakers.

Guessing its worth the price since this rates very well on Rtings.com.

EDIT:
Looks like its already on sale at Costco with Free shipping at same price also.

I bought the m21d and I love it. Not sure what the other comment is about bass but it has more than enough. I had to turn the bass down. It is a very good bar for the price. No regrets.
