Yamaha YHT-S400
$600.00
Released December, 2009
The Pros:Simple setup, manuals are helpful. Decent value: functions as a whole home theatre for under $500. Good quality subwoofer sound for the price.
The Cons:The surround sound does not achieve the same effect as a comparable multi-speaker setup. Will override and switch video output when used with TiVo. Rear channel speakers cannot be added.
The Yamaha YHT-S400 is an inline surround sound system consisting of a central-receiver with an integrated 100W subwoofer and a 3-channel Air Surround Xtreme soundbar. Air Surround technology delivers a surround-sound experience with the use of Digital Sound field Processing (DSP) and sound reflections—all without the need for multiple speakers and pesky wires.
