Yamaha doesn't disappoint
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been planning for some time to buy a sound bar, but couldn't decide which one to get. Never really considered Yamaha, even though I know they make high quality musical instruments, I didn't even know they made soundbars. So, through a series of events with my place of work and a 'years of service' award which, I initially made a different selection on my choice of awards that became unavailable, I had ended up choosing a Yamaha soundbar, that had also been a choice, instead. Needless to say, I'm glad I did. This soundbar has amazing sound and provides an incredible listening experience either on my tv, watching movies or available Bluetooth connectivity for music on my phone. No regrets on this decision! #SWEEPSTAKES

Fills up the room nicely
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use it during work to listen to all genres of music. Built in subwoofer actually sounds great but isn't too overpowering. Seamless connectivity between the TV, record player, and Bluetooth. #sweepstakes

Compact all in one soundbar with punching sound
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm thrilled with how this soundbar really upgrades my tv viewing experience. It delivers overall great sound makes it much easier to listen to tv shows and movies. The built in subwoofer brings a very balanced bass not overwhelming my living room. Bluetooth makes it easy to listen to quality music. No need to ask alexa anymore. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. #SWEEPSTAKES

Perfect for an apartment
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking for a soundbar that would work well in my quiet apartment building. My previous soundbar had muddled sound when run at low levels. The SR-C20A promised to be perfect for me and it delivered. The built in sub is clear without rumble. Once I used the mobile soundbar app to configure the soundbar and optimize for clear dialog it allowed me turn off closed captioning (mostly). For a smaller setup like in an apartment this soundbar offers clear strong sound at low to moderate volumes where larger bars struggle. I would go larger and with a discrete sub for larger rooms where loud sounds are less of a concern.

Nice sound for a small bar. One nitpick!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the sound of it. Love how small it is, but honestly the power adapter being in the middle of the cable run is a bummer. I would prefer a bit larger size to have it incorporated into the body of the unit. Mounting this unit on the wall will require some ingenuity to hide the massive a/c power block in the middle of the power run.

Great sound for the size and price
I use this for both the TV and Bluetooth options. Music through Bluetooth sounds great. TV dramas sound good and the dialogue boost help with understanding speech over sound effects. The one problem I've run into is using HDMI ARC with the TV. I figured out the right sequence for turning them on so the TV recognizes the sound bar. However, when I switch to Bluetooth, adjusting the volume turns the TV back on. This also accepts digital optical input so I will probably switch to that since I end up needing all my remotes for one thing or another anyway.

Poor clear-voice.
The subwoofer dominates, and a clear voice does not come through.

More than I expected!!
Pretty easy to set up if you just want to listen in your tv room. In my case I need to also hook up my Sony wireless headphones and a speaker system that takes music outside. This has been a challenge. When in optical I can hear through my headphones and play music to the outside. But after turning the tv off it will not turn the soundbar on upon turning the tv on...I have to put it in HDMI/ARC for that to happen. So if I can fix that I would give it 5 stars.

Great for size
I only use this for watching TV in a smaller bedroom 10x10. So it works fine for that. Plenty of bass. I like the clear voice- it does help to understand dialogue. Reomote is pretty straight forward. Movies sound better. I like the comapct size.

Might need to return
I like the size. We have tried hooking it up to the tv by both HDMI and Arc Cable and, although the unit lights up, it is not controlling the volume. The television is 3 years old so I don’t believe that is the problem. It’s possible that the directions, including the tiny pictures, are not written completely.

Good performance in a compact package for small spaces
I use this in the salon of a yacht. It is compact but provides good sound for this use.
