Yamaha SR-C20A review

 

Better TV sound in a small package and at an affordable price

Focused, clear presentation ; Rich tone ; Great size

Could be more expressive

For those simply looking to improve on the sound of their TV for just a couple of hundred pounds, the Yamaha SR-C20A is a great option

Yamaha SR-C20A review: Pint-sized soundbar adds extra pop

 

The small-scale C20A is an all-in-one soundbar solution - there's no separate subwoofer option - that bangs out big audio from a little package.

Poised and full-scale sound from any source ; Handily small and discreet ; Fine control app

Sound gets a little ragged at volume ; Remote control handset feels cheap ; Not cheap for what it is

The price may be bigger than the soundbar itself, but the SR-C20A is full to the brim with talent. As long as you resist the temptation to let it blast out, it’s ready to take your gaming and movie experience to the next level. An ideal small-scale...

Yamaha SR-C20A review

 

The Yamaha that has no problem explaining what's what

Big and convincing sound for games, movies and music ; Don’t take up too much room ; Good control app

Can get ragged at serious volume ; Fiddly remote control

A little bit of everything from a little bit of a soundbar

Yamaha SR-C20A review: Clear sound in a compact soundbar

 

This year, we've seen many soundbars go big. The LG SN11RG was a cinematic behemoth, and the Samsung HW-Q800T was a large, powerful unit in its own right. However, a few select few bars went in the opposite direction, like the Panasonic SoundSlayer and...

Compact, stylish design Easy setup Exceptionally clear sound

Below-average bass

The SR-C20A is the soundbar Yamaha designed it to be – a compact bar that can fit into tons of different nooks and crevices in the modern home – and it should be commended for that. At the same time, it comes at the expense of the low end needed to be...

This smaller speaker boosts the sound quality of TV shows and music but it's not the best value.

Good sound

 

Bought to go with new telly. Never had a sound bar before and chose one that turned out to be bigger than the tv - Richer Sounds were very happy to swap and advise on the right one. Pleased with look and more importantly sound. Only came with optical...

Great sound improvement

 

I am hard of hearing and my old sound bar quality was declining after 10 years use. The new sound bar has cleaned up the sound so that I can hear speech even from the mumbling actors which seem to abound on TV these days. A really good quality product...

Superb Sound bar.

 

This Yamaha sound bar is really great. It is nice and compact and fits perfectly under my Samsung TV. Connection is also good using the hdmi ARC system. Another fantastic spin off is that you can control it from an app on your phone and it shows...

Simple but effective soundbar that sounds great

 

This soundbar doesn't have any fancy features, no Dolby atmos, no separate subwoofer, but for this price what you do get is a solid compact soundbar that sounds excellent. I was genuinely surprised at how good movies sounded, even through a Bluetooth...
