Pros and Cons

Pros4

The combination of dolby audio, wireless components, and seamless connectivity make it a standout choice. It has a small footprint, wireless pairing keeps from cable cluttering.

The material quality is both light weight and durable. The packaging is okay, and the quality is very good. I hope my comments can bring more choices to buyers!

Came out of the box configured and ready to go! Setting it up with my tv and other entertainment gadgets was a breeze. Sound is great and setup is a snap. Very easy to unpack and setup.

The soundbar is sleek and stylish, blending well with my home decor. The 16” wireless subwoofer is a standout feature, delivering next-generation bass. The left and right satellite speakers can be adjusted for volume.

Cons2

The remote has a weird delay which is annoying. It needs to be reset constantly. All i want is a working sound system after paying for it or a refund. It resets but still super annoying.

Lasted 4 moths and 1 of the surround speakers went out. Constantly cuts out, whether it's the subwoofer or rear channels. Bass is low at highest setting. Sound is like that of a scratched vinyl record.

Pros4

The bass ext really adds a solid low end.

The yas 209-bl has great bass and a clear, smooth tone for our living room. It has a subwoofer output to add any sub rather than a prepackaged setup. Bluetooth sub is of heavy quality and sound bar is very long with 2 hdmi and a usb.

Yamaha sound control works with hdmi arc and hdmi cec signals. Set up by downloading the yamaha app and downloading the firmware update in the process. I have a samsung tv, but i stream using a roku.

The audio quality is amazing compared to * built-in tv speakers, but don’t expect it to compete with some cinematic 7. Surround sound. There are multiple sound settings such as tv, movies, music that adjust the sound output for optimum playback.

Cons3

Sounded like static in a tin can. Could not distinguish guitars or riffs on any of the presets. I can't get the controls on the bar or remote to do anything, i have to unplug the bar to shut it off. The info button does nothing.

There's what looks like a wi-fi light on the top. The app is horrible and you expect them to set it up with this app? Still no connection to the iphone. Can't get phone app to work either.

The sound out of the sound bar tends to be very muddy. At this point the app is useless since it can't find the soundbar. No real improvement from the tv's speaker quality.
