Yamaha YSP-4100 review

 

HD audio decoding ; useful connectivity ; wireless-ready ; produces a fantastic spread of effects ; clear and detailed sound

Doesn't do very deep bass ; subwoofer and optional wireless kits cost extra

The YSP-4100 is a sophisticated, modern and convincing attempt to produce surround sound from one box

Yamaha YSP-4100

 

The YSP-4100 has 40 beam drivers, two woofers and digital amplifiers to deliver multi-channel sound from digital sources such as Blu-ray players, with audio decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio without the need for extra speakers. Sleekly...

If a set of standard surround sound speakers isn’t an option, this delivers about as a good a surround sound experience as you can get from a single speaker bar. Tons of features and a user-friendly design round off a great product. Yamaha YSP-4100 is...

Yamaha YSP-4100 review: Yamaha YSP-4100

 

Yamaha YSP-4100

Sound-bar home theater system (no AV receiver required); best-in-class virtual surround processing and overall excellent sound quality; four HDMI inputs; three digital audio inputs; analog video upconversion; wireless music streaming from an iPod with...

Very expensive; doesn't support 3D video pass-through; no subwoofer included; much larger than many competing models; a true 5.1 home theater system sounds better.

The Yamaha YSP-4100 offers better surround effects, superior sound quality and more features than competing sound bars, but it's expensive and most buyers won't need all its functionality.

The Yamaha YSP-4100 is extremely feature-rich and is available in India at an MOP of Rs.97,500. This may be probably one of the best sound bars available in the market as it delivers performances that can be outmatched by only 5.1 channel speaker...

The sound bar includes HDMI ports with full 3D pass-through and audio return channel support, HD digital decoders for Blu-ray audio, a satellite-ready FM tuner, the ability to upconvert analog video signals to 1080p for HDMI output, IR pass-through and...
