Yamaha YSP soundbars

charlie_says

Hi,

I'm interested in getting a Yamaha YSP soundbar. I already have a pretty decent sub. 

My budget is e500.

I would love to be able to get the 2200 or the 2500 but they are just a little bit too expensive everywhere I can find them. The 1400 does look decent, but I am concerned that the surround isn't great on it with the low price, even with the reviews it gets. Can you still source a 2200?

What could you recommend otherwise - surround without wires is my goal.

Thanks

Charlei,

apologies for the delay getting back to you - and thanks for the post  the YSP2200 is now completely sold out - its a pity as it really was a classic! but the two others you mention, the YSP1400 and the YSP2500 are really excellent as well.

The YSP1400 is stripped down and less powerful than the YSP2500 but still gives a great surround effect and for just €349, delivered, it really is a great option:

If you wanted something more powerful and with HDMI switching then the YSP2500 is great at €799

But why not go the whole hog - we have a (very) few YSP3300's left that we are clearing at a silly €699 ( I know it blows the budget) I cant see them under €1000 anywhere else in Ireland online and at just €699 they really are great value!

Keep us posted,

Thanks for the swift response.

Would the 3300 be better than the 2500 in your experience? Does it include the microphone for configuring the room. I realise that the 2500 is newer but in my mind that doesn't necessarily translate to better with audio equipment.

Thanks

The YSP3300 does have  4 HDMI inputs but otherwise its a little more stripped out than the 2500, but in audio quality terms and especially surround effect its significantly better - at the clearance pricing its really a complete bargain..
