Picked this up around the beginning of January. Its the new Yamaha Soundbar.
Single-speaker surround system with 40 1.5-inch "beam" drivers and two 4.25-inch woofers; built-in digital amplifiers, Dolby Digital, DTS, Neural, and proprietary surround processing; eliminates the need for an AV receiver; HDMI connectivity with analog video upscaling to 1080i; XM satellite radio-ready, iPod adapter avaliable and built in FM tuner; autosetup with the supplied microphone.
The addition of enhanced video connectivity options cements Yamaha's already excellent Digital Sound Projector technology as the go-to choice for single-speaker surround sound.
It produced incredible sound and I'm going to wind up buying another one anyways but I'm in the process of buying a Condo and need to have some extra cash sitting around for closing costs.
I'm seeing them selling online for around 1600. Hoping to let it go with a month of use for 1350.
Comes with power cable, autosetup mic and Optical cable for audio.
