Hi Soap MacTavish.

Starting point for Yamaha would be the YSP2700 but its just too long at 930mm. There are no other Yamaha's smaller in length than this.

Sony have the HTCT290 priced at £179 which is just under 3 feet at 900mm. It has ARC, wireless subwoofer and bluetooth.

Denon have their DHTS316 coming in at £299. Again just fits at 900mm.

Let me know if any of these might suit?

Hey Soap MacTavish.

The Sony above at £179 isn't bad at all. Its has all the other features you required (ARC, subwoofer and Bluetooth).

However the likes of the Yamaha YAS207 @ £249 would be far superior. It was 5 star reviewed in What HiFi

Hi Soap MacTavish.

The Sanus FPA405 is designed to work with Sanus wall brackets but should also fit onto the arms of the Chromium bracket.

The Sony HTCT290 has two keyhole hooks on the rear for wall mounting but as it just hangs on screws on your wall I'm not sure it would not very stable on the FPA405 bracket.
See picture on the link below.

The Yamaha YAS207 also has the same wall mounting holes on the rear of it also.
I suppose if you use a nut and bolt and once the head of the bolt is in the hole, tighten the nut all the way and it should make a decent grip between bracket and bar.

I can't offer any better price on the Sony and £179 would be the best price on it.
I could offer the Yamaha YAS207 for £229.

Let me know your thoughts.
