Yamaha Digital Sound Projector YSP-4000 review

 

If you're one of those people who don't want to "live with wires and boxes all over my living room," Yamaha's Digital Sound Projector series of single-speaker surround systems may be exactly what you're looking for. Building on the success of earlier...

Single-speaker surround system with 40 1.5-inch "beam" drivers and two 4.25-inch woofers; built-in digital amplifiers, Dolby Digital, DTS, Neural, and proprietary surround processing; eliminates the need for an AV receiver; HDMI connectivity with...

Expensive, lacks the dynamic muscle of an equivalently priced 5.1 channel system; no Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD decoding; no S-Video inputs or outputs; setting up multiple sources is likely to confuse and frustrate most users; most listeners will want to...

The addition of enhanced video connectivity options cements Yamaha's already excellent Digital Sound Projector technology as the go-to choice for single-speaker surround sound.

Yamaha YSP-4000 Digital Sound Projector Review

 

The YSP-4000 is the newest and top-of-the-line product in this well received line. To say that it has been pushed to its limits in this review is probably an understatement. But did it pass? In my book - yes… for movies. Are you going to need a DVD...

Single speaker solution is great for the aesthetic and space conscious ; Provides convincing audio envelopment ; Tons of options for pseudo-surround sound ; Essentially a receiver and 5.0 speaker system in one box ; Extremely easy setup

Multi-channel music performance is sub-par ; Pinpoint rear effects can sound muddy and unfocused ; Pricy but you are paying for convenience ; Won't pass 480i over HDMI

Yamaha YSP-4000 Digital Sound Projector

 

The Yamaha YSP-4000 Digital Sound Projector ($1,799) is one of the simplest solutions this speaker-shy demographic could embrace. One could call the YSP-4000 the ultimate HTiB (Home Theater in a Box) because it contains speakers (or what Yamaha calls...

Yamaha Digital Sound Projector YSP-4000 Home theater system

 

One speaker. We only wish Yamaha invested more time in making the setup routine fully user-friendly: the surround calibration is a snap, but assigning inputs for multiple sources is likely to induce headaches for all but the most experienced users....
