Yamaha YSP-2200 review

Looking for a credible alternative to a multi-speaker surround system? Steve May has just the ticket The Quick Start guide supplied with Yamaha’s YSP-2200 system concludes with a clear message in bold, overlarge type. It reads: ‘Then have fun for playback!’ While the English may be a bit mangled, the sentiment is spot-on. Using this soundbar and subwoofer system is indeed a lot of fun. The two-piece system comprises the main YSP-CU2200 console and a somewhat chunkier passive subwoofer, the NS-SWP600.

Yamaha YSP-2200 Digital Sound Projector Review

Well, we're not new to digital sound projectors like the Yamaha YSP-2200, and the traditional sound bar has several speakers that replace the speakers on your TV. The is much more than that.

Yamaha YSP-2200 review - A groovy, feature-packed sound projector bar that uses clever beam drivers to deliver true surround sound.

The Yamaha YSP-2200 is one of the slimmest soundbars yet. It's an ingenious all-in-one home-cinema system for those without the space for separates or multiple speakers. While the subwoofer is rather unrefined, the YSP-2200's sonic clarity and surround-sound steering is excellent.

Multispeaker surround systems sound great, but they're not always the most practical home theater solution, particularly when home is an apartment. These sound bars cut the clutter without sacrificing the audio.

Test Report: Yamaha YSP-2200 Digital Sound Projector

I have something that I must confess: I’ve got a love/hate thing with soundbars. On the love side, these one- or two-piece, flat-panel-pandering “surround” systems have rescued tens of thousands of innocent suburbanites from the horrors of tinny TV tintinnabulation.

Best soundbar, Awards 2012. £800 may seem like a lot of money for this two-box system, but when you see what you get it's a steal
