Yamaha Audio SR-B20A Sound Bar with Built-in Subwoofers and Bluetooth, Black

Support 110v only. Why can't Yamaha make it a dual voltage? Now a step down from 220v to 110v is required. In this day and age, electrical and electronic equipment should support 110v and 220v as products are going international.

I have a new 40’ class A RV. The TV is ok, a Connex. The original sound bar that came with the unit was poor! I did some research to find one our family would love. This unit is perfect! The sound is very good and loud for the medium size space. It adds great theater for the TV and the music is very rich. I definitely recommend this Yamaha B20A and am thinking about one for our home den TV. Installing with the provided optic connection was easy, but I wanted one remote to control all. The HDMI ARC can support the TV remote to run all. I did have issues getting the Connex settings to recognize the TV using the ARC HDMI. After some chatGPT help I was able to get the Connex settings correct. Again, not a Yamaha issue! The remote is so/so but there is a phone app that is excellent. Pros, sound quality Bass Look Medium room loudness Phone App remote Cons, The remote No hardware to wall mount No HDMI ARC cable provided This is a good sound bar at a good price.

The quality of this soundbar is awesome. The clarity at which songs are played is next level. I have connected it to my TV through optical cable provided. Have tested both Bluetooth and optical cable. Earlier lag was felt when speaker was connected to TV through Bluetooth. But Optical cable changed the game all together. Though loud I will not call this speaker loud when compared to the ones in the market. If you wanted clarity and great sound effects, this is the one. Would surely recommend this product. Please note that this has built in woofer and also has the ability to connect to external woofers. The 3d sound for movies setup makes movies immersive. The Clear Voice feature specifically helps me to hear songs as I like to hear vocals more. If you are going for any soundbar at 7k rame and wouldn't mind stretching a little for this soundbar - surely take this. It's way too far in quality than the 7k with soundbars.

I wanted immersive sound for my computer, but without a receiver and installing speakers around the room. Sounds is great, easy to setup, optical input connects directly to my computer (cable is included). Games and movies are much more immersive, music sounds amazing. Bluetooth with iPad works great and the app makes it easy to control the sound bar. I also have a powered subwoofer with analog input which works with this, most other options are wireless, but proprietary and I'd have to buy another subwoofer (more expensive than the sound bar itself.

Using this for watching motorcycle races on my monitor and for playing computer games, plus occasional music. Out of the box everything worked perfectly, set-up is very easy including Bluetooth, and although I did scan the instructions the truth is it’s pretty obvious what buttons do what. Has a nice little remote control (battery included). I have mine connected to my computer via Bluetooth - just turn on the soundbar, go to your computer settings screen, select “bluetooth” and click on the Yamaha option. Easy as pie. Except that I’ve never made a pie and would probably find it quite difficult. So ignore my dearth of baking talent and let’s move on, shall we? Sound is good! Considering the size and price ($129 on sale) it’s excellent! The 3D sound feature actually works and I can say I’ve never noticed such features work ever before on anything else. Somehow it fools my ears to believe sound is coming from far off to the sides…I like it. My main desire for any sound system is bass, though, and I bought this specifically because folks said it had good bass. The sound, not the fish. To keep you in suspenders (ha!) one minute longer, the mids and highs are great - clear, clean, quality you’d expect from the tuning fork people - and it does not sound like the vast majority of Bluetooth speakers, even expensive name brands, which I find always sound muted and/or hollow. Even big name BT speakers always sound pretty poor, in my arrogant opinion. Not this one. This sounds like it’s a real soundbar and just happens to be operating over BT. On the same vein, even the bigger BT speakers that claim to be bass monsters leave me underwhelmed. Disappointed. Aggrieved. Other words that mean ‘let down because no boom-boom good’. So how about this here Yammy-haw? Surprisingly good! That’s correct! Initially I was mildly okay with it as I played Teach Me How to Dougie; that’s my go-to bass comparison song because (a) it has very deep bass, (b) I like the song, and (c) there is no C. It was never going to shake the walls but it provided a little vibration to the desktop on which the soundbar rested. Eh. Turned on and off the Bass Extend button a few times, feeling a bit disappointed once again but blaming myself for having hope to begin with. Then I looked at the remote and paused momentarily. There in rubberized glory is a volume button for subwoofer!?! I increased the sub. It helped. I did it more. It helped more. I pushed that button till I knew it could hold no more, and hallelujah the bass came alive!!! It’s still a small soundbar with small speakers, but it made me soooo happy to actually get the desk to jiggle and to feel just a little salving bass massaging my soul! It will never replace a really, really good sound system. I have Sonos surround for the big TV which makes the house shake, but for playing Call of Duty or StarCraft or watching MotoGP racing this is way better than merely adequate. It’s enjoyable! And the surround feature thing is kinda like icing on the cake, although who eats cake without icing anyway? Seriously. Even muffins and cupcakes get icing. Iiiiiiiiicing…. Anyway, happy? YES! Long-winded? Also yes! Will you be happy with it? How would I know? But if you don’t require the windows to rattle while watching TV, or if you’re not in a financial place to buy a massive surround sound system, or if you just want decent noises for your computer games, this is definitely great sound for the price point. Best I have ever heard for the price, and I have a LOT of disappointing speakers cluttering up drawers and cupboards to base that from. I also ended that defense with a preposition. Dad would be so annoyed. He thought he taught me better. Quit reading this and go buy the soundbar already!
