Clear voice and distinct dialogue that's not drowned out by background music. The bar is able to decode surround sound signals even though it doesn't have a bunch of speakers to use with that signal. Clear voice is really good and movie mode is great....  Read More

The sound is good, and the bass is adjustable via remote. While not bose level sound, it packs good rich sound for movies & music in a small package at a fair price. This yamaha is much more powerful and play louder than that bose at half the cost...  Read More

It's small enough to not stick out like a sore thumb. Though the size is compact, the sound is robust. There is better soundbars out there and much more expensive, but for something affordable, with decent sound then this bar will fit the bill.

The sound quality is surprisingly good for the size of the unit. I'm only partial audiophile, but i do have 2 of these and they are decent.

All you have to do is plug the optical cable into the tv outlet on the back of the soundbar. Go to settings on your tv and select optical audio on audio inputs.

The sound quality is okay, but the bass is terrible. There's more bass, sure, but there's little clarity and music sounds muffled. The sound bar's functionality is horrible.

Very dissatisfied with yamaha. Save your money and put it towards something nicer" "this is one of the few disappointing purchases!

Very little tinkering needs to be done. Easy to setup. Works well and setup was a breeze. Went through all the manufacture toys and everything just works.

Using bluetooth from my phone was a breeze and provided even higher fidelity. Works great with my samsung tv. Easy source switching between arc, sb hdmi and phone bluetooth when playing music. Only annoyance so far, i like keeping it on adaptive sound...  Read More

Got this yest afternoon. After several weeks - not once has there been an issue. Great soundbar.

Though the subwoofer itself is half the size of my previous system, it is scary how much louder it can get. While they don't fire upwards like some of the other soundbar rear speakers, the fidelity wins.

The vocal clarity is much better than my lg bar. Was skeptical at first, upgrading from my 2014 samsung soundbar. This system is not cheap but you can really tell the difference from other sound bars.
