Advice Needed Sony HT-CT790 vs Vizio Elevate Pro 5.1.4
I’m considering getting a new soundbar for my small living room. I currently have an old Sony soundbar with wireless speakers and sub but it just doesn’t seem to keep up anymore. It seems like it takes it a second and is almost like an old CD with a skip from time to time. You all probably know better than I do what I’m talking about. It’s been a great setup but I want something better for this TV. I’m going to put it in my other room.
My big question is would it be worth getting the Vizio. I know it’s a mid tier soundbar at best but I just can’t shell out more than $350-$400 right now. I’m actually off work because I had a hernia repaired. If I wait until I can it’ll be at least March or April before I can get a better system if I can then. I have a daughter in college and two kids in middle school. The Vizio would be to get me by until I buy a new house. I plan on doing that in a year or two if everything works out.
I’m no audiophile so thanks for taking the time to read this. I appreciate it.
