Yamaha YHT-S400 review

 

A mixture of both soundbar and receiver, this accomplished Yamaha delivers high-quality sound with plenty of presence and focus

Crisply detailed, well integrated sound ; tidy soundbar and thoughtful subwoofer design

Rack-mounting a subwoofer with the rest of your kit can’t be recommended

Inventive thinking from Yamaha delivers a soundbar that’s part-way to a cinema-in-a-box system

Yamaha YHT-S400

 

Truly space-saving, Yamaha's YHT-S400 will no doubt appeal to those after home theatre minimalism. Thankfully, it sounds a great deal bigger and convincing than its meagre dimensions suggest.

Massively space-saving. Believable pseudo surround. Subwoofer punches above its weight.

Limited AV receiver features. Manual set-up. Limited decoding/DSP options.
