Review on Experience Incredible Sound with the Yamaha YSP-2700 MusicCast Sound Bar and Wireless Subwoofer by Kristiyana Setiyawat ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

The effects of films, this is when you feel the sound behind your back, as with real rear speakers - they disappear if you move away from the viewing place, for example, into the corner of the room, the soundbar is calibrated to the room so that the surround theater sound is focused exactly on the sofa on which you are watching the movie, you move to the left of the sofa and the effects of the rear speakers disappear, this is not critical, as the film is mainly watched in front of the TV, the idea itself with the reflection of sound rays from the walls of the room is simply phenomenal, before this soundbar there was a yamaha yas-207 (this is just a soundbar, but not a sound projector) - there the effect of presence was not felt at all, but in the ysp-2700 we look like in a normal movie theater - the sound is obtained from all sides, by the way the music plays in stereo mode is also very worthy. I want to add about dolby atmos - in soundbars this is an absolutely unnecessary decoder, approximately from the same opera as curved TVs - pure marketing. In general, I confirm all the positive reviews - a successful product from Yamaha.

Pros
  • low body - does not block the TV screen, good volume of sound when watching a movie, but only in a certain place. Even before buying, I listened to sony st5000 and samsung (I don’t remember the model - but the cost was about 70,000) - both were with Dolby atmos, I didn’t like samsung at all, and sony 5000 sounded very worthy, but firstly it didn’t pass in height - 8 cm, (yamaha is less than 6 cm in height), and secondly, I read reviews about the marriage of ht-st5000 and did not take risks.
Cons
  • Internet radio did not work out of the box, it turned out that it was necessary to ate the firmware, since Yamaha switched from the vtuner provider to airable, this is useful information - because until you ate to the latest firmware, you will not see the radio. I also think that this model is not worth buying for huge rooms with high ceilings - sound rays simply cannot be reflected from the walls, it is optimal for this model to have a room from 15 to 35 meters and with ceilings up to 3 meters.
