What's great about it: Easy Setup. Great Sound. Includes 1 Optical Cable.
What's not so great: No Ipod connection
After using the speakers for a few weeks I think I am able to submit a review. The speaker is nice, sleek and shiny black. Thicker than I expected but with the built in sub-woofer, I figured it had to be. It sat neatly in front of my 52" Sharp LCD TV. The feet were high enough to slide next to the television. Setup was a breeze. Straight out of the box and setup in less than 15 minutes. It came with an optical cable which I attached to my cable box. I had to go and get another one for my blue-ray player. As expected, the sound was great. Nice and clear. I was able to turn it up without any hint of straining the speakers. My wish was that the speaker came with some sort of indicator that gave you what the current sound level was at.
The sound was a concern of mine with any sound bar. I have shopped and listened to a lot of them at all the major retailers and most of them sounded like crud. Speakers sounding like they were pushed way beyond their limit or it sounded like some cheap pc speakers. I was happy with what came out of the Yamaha Sound bar. It gave a nice full and clear sound. Supposedly it has the ability to provide 7.1 channel sound. Not sure since I am not sure what 7.1 channel is supposed to sound like but it did provide great sound at all areas of the living room. Another feature is that it has built in sub-woofers and it offers the ability to add an external sub-woofer to the system. The bass was not deep and pronounced but there was bass. I guess that’s what the external sub-woofer would be for.
Another feature I wish was added is the ability to add a IPOD connection. If it’s there, I haven’t figured out how to connect it but there isn’t an RCA axillary connector to connect the IPOD. That would have been a nice feature. Overall I like this sound bar a lot. It provides great sound and features all in 1 sound bar.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I received the soundbar today, and it has great, clear sound, and has a great, beautiful look. Only down side with me is, because of my hearing from being in the Navy around aircraft, the bass could be a little louder. I will, eventually, buy an external sub.
I would recommend this to a friend!
