I like you already. But that should be any soundbar, not just Vizio—just say "no" to soundbars of all stripes!
So my Ascend friends will these HTM 200 speakers give me enough sound. No I'm not looking for crazy room rattling loudness..I'm looking for accuracy and clarity.
"Accuracy and clarity" is kind of what Ascend is all about. It's what has made us enthusiastic owners.
The HTM-200s are not only not large (good for WAF), they're sealed, so they're super easy to place. They don't put out a tremendous amount of bass, but since you'll have a sub, that shouldn't be an issue. Essentially, half your room is 10.5' x 17', which isn't too big; at 89dB they're pretty sensitive, so they should get plenty loud enough for that space. I'd think they should be pretty much perfect for your application.
Oh, and since you said this is basically just for movies, I'd definitely go 3.1. You really need that dedicated center for movies; that's where all the dialog comes from.
Luna Duo V2 LR, Titan Horizon V2, and Rythmik L22 & L12 in HT1; Sierra-LXs in study; S-2EXs and Duo V2 C in bedroom; S-1 NrTs in dining room; S-1s at work; HTM-200s in kitchen. Brother owns CMT-340s and dad has a pair of CBM-170s.
