From the makers of the original soundbar, the Yamaha YAS101 is their best value to date.

SPACIOUS, SURROUND SOUND EFFECTS FROM A SLIM PACKAGE

Consisting of a slim sound bar with integral subwoofer, the YAS101 contains everything you need for effective sound enhancement within just one unit. At the heart of this super-slim Soundbar is AIR SURROUND EXTREME. Using 24kHz HRTF (Head Related Transfer Function) technology it manages to clearly separate sounds from in front of you to those that are supposed to come from the sides or rear - without the need for extra speakers! The effects are so realistic you'll find it hard to believe all the sound is coming from the front speaker bar. Added to this is Yamaha's Extended Stereo which gives enhanced stereo sound staging, once again making the sound more true to life and believable.

POWERFUL BASS RESPONSE

In addition to offering a more spacious sound, the YAS101 has excellent bass depth, too. With a dual-driver subwoofer built-in and bass reflex cabinet, the Yamaha YAS101 provides a solid bass response that's a league above just about any TV speaker system. Should you require even more bass, then a subwoofer output is on hand to connect your choice of sub.

CLEARER SOUND

With some soundtracks, especially where there's a lot happening, it can be hard to hear what's being said. Thanks to the Yamaha's Clear Voice feature it's now easy to follow dialogue, exactly as it's spoken. Furthermore, UniVolume keeps programmes and commercials at the same volume level - making watching commercial TV a great deal less irritating!

EASY TO PLACE

Being so slim and attractive, the YAS101 sits easily in front of or just below your TV. The smart gloss black finish has been designed to match the vast majority of TVs so won't look at all out of place. Should you wish, you can even wall mount the speaker just above or below your TV.

A massive improvement on the average TV sound, the Yamaha YAS101 gives you the chance to upgrade with style.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Excellent compact front sound system I bought this because I wanted to improve the thin, weak sound of my LG Smart LED TV. I ruled out the 5 speaker surround system on the grounds of practicality. The Yamaha YAS 101 is as good a solution as I have heard ... and I have heard a lot - from £150 to £700. If you really want true surround, then this will not deliver it ... nor will any sound bar. It has enough power to fill my lounge (30' x 14') with a crisp clear immersive sound. The mid-range gives a bright and detailed sound with excellent control. The built-in woofer units do a good job providing some decent low-down thump without dominating the whole sound-stage. I found that with the bass set to max the overall sound was just what I wanted. Better than similarly priced system with separate sub-woof, set with the bass turned down to prevent it swamping everything, coupled to an inferior mid-range. No contest really. The Yamaha uses quality drive units from a proper audio manufacturer and you can hear it in the delivery. 19 May 2013
