Fantastic upgrade to our television's sound quality for our home office.

Outstanding quality/value for the $$$$!!! Value!!!

Good product and worthy money. I did mentioned all of my friends and family.

Not bad for the price. Not a lot Bass. Still worth purchasing

I think you will agree that this is a 5 star unit if your expectations align with the reality of what you are bringing home. This little Yamaha sound bar is just what I needed. I have an older HD TV that I had recently upgraded to a newer 4K unit. I relocated the old TV to another room in the house. I was looking for an affordable, small, simple soundbar to enhance the terrible built in speakers of that older TV. This fit the bill perfectly. It has a very nice sound considering its size. Very clear and plenty loud. You aren’t getting a massive surround sound experience. There is no stand-alone subwoofer to rattle the pictures on your wall and no satellite speakers to make you feel like you are in the middle of the action. If that’s what you are looking for, you likely won’t be happy with this soundbar. That said, if you are looking for something super easy to set up that gives you a nice upgrade from internal speakers of your TV but won’t break the bank, this is for you. I used the included digital optical cable to connect the soundbar to my TV. I quite literally just plugged in the power and the optical cable and it just worked. I didn’t have to do anything at all. It also supports HDMI or AUX connection if you don’t have the optical option or just want to go another route. Please note that the only included cable is optical. The soundbar has a few presets for you to play with that are easily identified on the remote. I prefer the standard mode, but there is also a stereo mode along with movie and game modes. They all sound fine, just slight tweaks to the equalizer settings. There is a bass boost that I turned all the way up. I felt like it helped support the sound with a little more bottom range. It isn’t boomy, so don’t expect it to shake the fillings out of your teeth. It also has a clear voice feature that enhances the dialogue. I found it useful. I don’t hear as well as I used to…too many concerts, I guess. It helps me understand what’s being said a little better when there is background noise. The soundbar also works as a Bluetooth speaker. It was very easy to connect. I simply clicked the Bluetooth button on the soundbar remote, and then opened up my connections on my cell phone. The Yamaha audio device was right there in the list. I selected it and it paired without issue. Nice clean stream between my phone and the soundbar. I really don’t have anything to complain about on this one, and that’s saying something. It’s inexpensive, it is miles better than the internal speakers of my TV, it has just enough features to be fun to play with while not being complicated, it’s really small, and the setup required zero tech skills. I would definitely recommend this unit. Just know what you are buying and don’t expect more than you should at this size and price point.

Excellent service. The purchase was made by phone saleman was very accomidating.

I did not purchase this sound bar I bought a Samsung but that was last year

Returned. We wanted to love it but ended up being too small for our size room (basement). Would probably be great for a bedroom or something.

This is a nice speaker, but it doesn't let you know when its on or off. And the sound goes up instead of facing you, so you have to put it where you can hear it.

Really like this product. Perfect selection for my tv.

Overall a solid product. Not mind blowing but solid.

Great item for the money. Works perfect with the television.

Seems to be able to fill the room with sound. This Sound bar was easy to set up . Luckily I had the additional connectors needed to complete the installation. Now I am just glad to be able to enjoy the advanced sound performance.

I gave it 3 stars because my Tv was actually louder and if you turn down the volume it would make it hard to hear actors talk. I returned it...maybe it’s because I have a 70 inch and it was meant for a smaller unit.

Yamaha has some quality audio equipment out there and this soundbar can be added to the list of quality audio equipment from Yamaha. The Yamaha SR-C20A is surprisingly packed with an enormous sound for its size. The height and width of this product is 2.5in x 23.63in. A very compact device that can fit on your entertainment center or your office desk. I used the soundbar as an external speaker for my PC. The soundbar is perfect for someone who is limited on space. I placed the soundbar on my desk and it perfectly fits in front of my monitor. And wow, does it work great! Movies, games, and music all sound fascinating with the Yamaha SR-C20A soundbar. The soundbar came with a remote control, a digital optic cable, the AC adapter/power cord, and a mounting kit if you want to mount the soundbar on a wall. The remote control has various features that only enhance the sound of this soundbar. The top row is used to switch between input modes, TV, Optical, Bluetooth, and Analog. Below those buttons are the Clear Voice and Bass Extension modes. The Clear Voice mode works wonderfully with movies. Sometimes the music in the background overpowers the actor’s voices and little dialogue can be heard, when enabling this mode, voices are clearer and more profound. Enabling Bass Extension mode boosts the deep bass sound coming from the soundbar. This mode I found ideal when listening to music. Below the Clear Voice and Bass Extension modes, there are sound modes. These modes can be used to enhance whatever content you are viewing/listening to. These modes are Stereo, Standard, Movie, and Game. Game mode enhanced my gaming experience by bringing out those low sounds that can be hard to hear such as when an enemy is walking in the bushes. I tested this soundbar while playing the new Assassins Creed Valhalla and have had a wonderful experience so far. Under the sound modes are is the ability to adjust the subwoofer button, an info button, a dim button, a mute button, and the volume button. The soundbar feels built well and the LED lights in the front are extremely helpful in seeing what modes are enabled/disabled. The LED lights are also helpful in viewing what level of volume the soundbar is at. There are a couple of touch controls on the top of the soundbar that I found convenient. The first control is used to easily switch between the three inputs and Bluetooth. (TV, Optical, Analog) The next two are volume control. And finally, a power button. I don’t have anything negative to say about this soundbar. After using it for a couple of days I have yet to experience problems with it. Although, the AC adaptor is a bit tough to not only find a place for but hide due to the size of the thing. Overall, if you need a small bar that doesn’t take up a lot of space and packs a great sound, the Yamaha SR-C20A soundbar is something that I definitely recommend.

I highly recommend this item it fits perfectly in my husband man cave

I returned this only because I wanted a little Bass from a subwoofer in the family room. Otherwise it would work in a bedroom anytime.

great Yamaha quality.......... need to getcha one!

Loud & sound. Great brand & quality................

Not too happy with my purchase. The sound is like.... muffled. Syncs up nice with the tv action tho.
