Hey there,

I started this topic when I was interested in the Yamaha YHT S400 soundbar:

I've since moved on to a 5.1 set up but if you're keen, this one's a good buy. Cheers.

Check out this months' HWM (the one with Milla on the cover) as it has a review on 4 soundbars (Philips, Sony, Samsung and Yamaha).. though the one from Philips is a better range one that cost RM4k.

Anyway, I tested most of the Philips before.
- fits under a 32" nicely
- Average sound for movies and music (there's another one from Philips that sounds better.. think its the one that comes with the Blu Ray player)
- No HD audio
- No HDMI inputs

I previously ordered the Yamaha S400 but it took too long to come  (almost 1 month to reach me) so I upgraded to a Yamaha RX-V467 with NS-8390 and NS-P60 speakers with a YST-SW215 (or was it YST-SW315) sub.

Kinda wondering how I'm gonna fit those 2 tall fellas in my small living sweat.gif Hope I'm not getting some mismatched combo..
I think your combo with the 2 L+R satellites would be quite nice.. hows the sound eh?

I should be getting mine today so will take some photos of my HT setup to share for you guys to comment on how to improve notworthy.gif
