A customizable karaoke experience that will demand an encore, MicMe continues VIZIO’s history of raising the bar for high-impact, immersive audio technology by inviting users to turn up the volume and take their soundbar experience to the next level. MicMe integrates additional technology optimized for karaoke into the VIZIO Soundbar and is paired with two wireless microphones. The soundbar is designed to seamlessly integrate with select VIZIO Smart TVs when attached to the bottom of the TV via QuickFit.

With MicMe, users are able to enjoy a truly customizable karaoke experience. From changing vocal settings directly on the mic or by using advanced microphone controls in the VIZIO mobile app, including six voice enhancements and nine mic ambient color options, MicMe can take the soundbar and karaoke experience to the next level. With up to eight hours of battery life on the wireless microphones, users can perform their favorite songs until they are content. Once the encore performance is complete, users can place the mics back on the charging dock and MicMe will continue to support TV audio, without any additional steps.

When not being utilized for entertaining karaoke performances, MicMe maintains the same level of cinema-inspired sound quality that consumers have grown to expect from VIZIO Soundbars.

Integrating a mounted soundbar with a wall mounted TV can be complicated. Even if users opt to place the soundbar on furniture, there are typically visible cables that can take away from aesthetics. These are the issues that inspired VIZIO’s patent-pending QuickFit solution. It enables the soundbar to be attached directly to the bottom of select VIZIO TV models quickly, without tools or added holes in the wall. A pair of thumb screws included with the soundbar can be inserted into the underside of compatible VIZIO TVs by hand and the soundbar connects to the mounting posts with a reassuring click. Since the soundbar attaches to the bottom of the TV, cables can be managed without exposing them.
