Installation was easy and the sound is wonderful. I gave this system to my son for Christmas so that he could have surround sound for his XBox Live. He has been thrilled with it. Couldn't be happier, especially with the price. I couldn't believe the quality for the price I paid.
Frankly speaking, I was doubtful about the product because of the price. The best thing of the woofer is , it does nt produce the high bass which becomes impossible tolerate. But after buying this, I realized how wrong I was. Today I got the speaker and I was amazed abt the sound quality.I hv been an audio freak since a long time and I know which sound can be termed as a quality sound. I m not referring to the drum beats. I m using it with HTR-6240 and the combination is just awesome.
Nice set although you have to buy a reciever for it. Sounds good no problems easy to set up.
I bought this for my 16 year old son for Christmas. Not often does that happen. It's a great product with great sound. It was better than he had expected. He is very pleased. This was a good price, too.
My receiver, a Pioneer VSK-519 showed up before my speakers so I hooked it up to some Sony book shelf speakers to "test it out". I liked the idea of the Yamaha name, but was concerned the quality would be less than optimal because the price was so low. I watch movies right around 50-52 when with the Sony speakers, I was quite happy at 40. The 6 Ohm rating was a big hiccup for me as well, as 8 ohm is what all receiver ratings are calculated on.
I also upgraded my speaker wire to 16 gauge and have not noticed a difference.Other thoughts, even though the Sub is a 100W amp, it only produces 50W of output, just like it says on the Manufacture site. But after looking closely at the manual for my receiver I found it supported 6-16 Ohm speakers. So we were good there. It took me weeks of research before I purchased this product. That made me very happy. And once I got them out of the way I had to turn the receiver up higher to get the same output.
I suspect this is related to the 82 db rating (and the only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5). But turning the Amp up a little higher is not a big deal and the Receiver has been very happy in it's low ventilation area, and is in no danger of overheating.
So it was well worth it, and I have been very pleased with the whole set up.On a side note I definitely recommend the Pioneer VSK-519. While I am not an audiophile I like to have the best my limited money can buy.
So Amazon was a little misleading there. When the Yamaha speakers came I was only able to hook up three of the five speakers with the included speaker wire, so I used the Sony's as R and L.
The Sony's put out noticeably more sound than the Yamaha's which was at first concerning to me. No big deal, because the Sub is quite adequate in my 1200 sqft house, it is everywhere, my poor wife.My Brother who spent well over $1000 on his surround sound (Mine: $100.98 speakers, $165 receiver, $10 in speaker wire) said my setup sounded better than his, we were watching UP on Blu-ray.
It is the only receiver in it's class (
