5Yamaha YSP 800 all-in-one surround sound
By J. Kelly
If space is at a premium in your TV room, this is an idealall-in-one system, giving you real *theatre* surround sound.I decided on the Yamaha YSP 800 over it's larger and more expensive version. The unit has 21 small speakers and 2 larger ones, in a neat and compact enclosure. It also came with a separate Yamaha subwoofer. I have my unit sitting in front of my plasma TV, on a cabinet. I needed to raise the TV in order to access the remote spot; otherwise the YSP was blocking it. Hooking up the various cables was fairly straightforward.I purchased a quality subwoofer cable and one extra digital cable, but the unit is supplied with both. Setting up how the unit will sound in a particular room was very easy also. A microphone is supplied, which you attach to the unit and place in the area, on a supplied tripod, where you are likely to do most of your listening. The unit sets itself up by bouncing sound off the walls and calibrating distances, volume etc.I was able to teach my Sony universal remote to operate all but one function of the YSP.The sound is amazing, especially with *Trubase* activated. There are various modes of sound available, eg, night time cinema, in case people are trying to sleep nearby.I couldn't be happier with this product: one unit, no other speakers cluttering the room, no cables snaking under or on the floor. You have to listen to it to believe how good it sounds.John Kelly

4Used with a Subwoofer, this piece rocks...
By S. B. Weinmann
I'm an avid audiophile, and have been listening to high-end systems for many years. I'm a tough customer.I recently bought a 32" LCD HDTV for my bedroom. My wife didn't want me running speakers to all corners of the room, and I wanted something that sounded good enough to watch movies in bed.Took a chance with the YSP-800 after reading the reviews.Couple of observations:The auto-setup is truly remarkable. Comes with the microphone and it just does its stuff.The unit does not come with the ability to mount to a wall without a special wall bracket that you must buy separately.It has three digital inputs - two optical Toslink and one coax.I used it without a Subwoofer and with. No comparison.Without a subwoofer, don't bother spending the money. With a subwoofer, hold onto your hat.I'm using a Sunfire Subwoofer and the system sounds spectacular. It sounds great for music, TV and movies.Highly recommended.

5Great product in the right room
By T. Hanna
This is a fantastic product if:1) You can't or don't want to run wires and setup rear speakers in a surround sound configuration.2) Your room has walls on the sides and back to bounce the rear sound beams off of.3) Your room meets the minimum dimensions.4) You don't sit directly against the back wall of your room.Look at the diagrams on the Yamaha website if you have questions. If your room isn't compatible with this system, you probably should consider something else.I bought this unit a last week and am very happy with it. The surround effect is quite convincing and having an LFE channel is great. You WILL need to purchase a subwoofer for use with this unit. It is not included. I use the YST-FSW100 though any decent subwoofer should be fine if you already own one.If you try to get by with just TruBass and no woofer, you'll be disappointed. TruBass is a psycho-accoustic effect that tricks you into thinking you're hearing low notes that are absent or quiet by producing higher frequencies in the harmonic series for the low note in question. It can be a very convincing effect but it is no substitute for the real thing.
