Having taken home and discovered that thin screen audio is - Shock Horror - almost asimpressive as his alarm clock bedside, his penance for superficiality is to invest in a sound bar.

Conveniently (ironically, some would say) that come from more or less the same markingsas the TV, and come with different ambitions sound by simply increasing the volume andthe replacement of your home theater with a "virtual" surround sound set underway.

Yamaha YAS-101 – 

King of the pseudo-surround sound Yamaha has always been, the company that came up with the idea six years ago, so stoically still called the front surround sound system. It is present here in its umpteenth, but more affordable (and basic), incarnation, and unlike its rivals makes the subwoofer from the main unit.

Your main promise is that its technology offers AIR SURROUND XTREME surround sound (of decoded Dolby Digital and DTS) similar to a 7.1 setup. That's a bold claim. The actual unit combines two cone speakers with a subwoofer, which are driven by a digital amplifierwith a total power of 120W.

Exceptionally, the base of intermittent IR acts as a repeater for instructions emanating from a TV remote, which is useful if the YAS-101 is positioned in front of a TV, blocking the IR receiver.
