Yamaha YSP 2200<br />
Effective surround sound in one piece<br />
�The Yamaha YSP-2200 is a digital sound projector system that<br />
looks like a sound bar in terms of its external appearance. It is<br />
thus a sound bar with a difference. The reason it is different is<br />
that it has 16 small speakers located inside it instead of having 1<br />
speaker each for each channel. It has a single external subwoofer<br />
on the outside.<br />
In terms of design the sound bar is sleek and low profile, packing<br />
a lot of power on the inside but <strong>no</strong>t showing it. The build is<br />
sturdy and of a really good quality. It consists of a metallic front<br />
and can be used while being laid in an upright or a flat position.<br />
The Yamaha YSP 2200 scores quite high, in<br />
terms of connectivity<br />
which<br />
is really<br />
a good thing<br />
for any sound bar or sound<br />
amplification system. It supports three<br />
HDMI inputs to name the least besides other connectivity<br />
options via two slots for digital optical audio etc. In its superior<br />
connectivity options it may prove to be a rival of the best<br />
sound bars in the market. The HDMI are equipped with the latest<br />
specifications and can support 3D.<br />
The 16 small speakers enclosed within the sound bar is one of<br />
Yamaha YSP 2200’s biggest bonuses. The 16 speakers each possess<br />
their own sound amplifier and all in all they provide stunning<br />
surround sounds. The sound is really great to hear and the hearing<br />
experience gets a whole lot better.<br />
Plus the Yamaha YSP 2200<br />
provides multiple audio options<br />
suited to each user’s<br />
preferences and situation.<br />
HOME CINEMA<br />
A<strong>no</strong>ther great feature of the Yamaha YSP 2200 is that it can allow<br />
for greater power saving with its sleep mode. At the gentle<br />
press of a button the device goes into sleep mode and gradually<br />
decreases its power consumption over 120 minutes.<br />
There are eleven different DSP (Digital Sound Projection) modes<br />
that can be activated with the different buttons provided on the<br />
remote. This is quite stunning a feature for the sound bar to provide<br />
so many different sound options. There are options in the<br />
Movie Mode as well. Examples are Sci-Fi, Adventure and Spectacle.<br />
The Entertainment Mode too has options for Sports, Talk<br />
Shows and Drama Game. There are some other obscure sound<br />
modes too.<br />
The Yamaha YSP 2200 handles 3D relatively well. Its different<br />
sound modes and other options, when adjusted in likeness<br />
to the user’s preferences and situation can<br />
provide really good quality<br />
sound. Its performance<br />
is quite good<br />
and its 16 small speakers<br />
create a major difference<br />
in the positive<br />
direction in relation to<br />
other sound bars in the<br />
market.<br />
There are some other<br />
winning features of the Yamaha<br />
YSP 2200. It comes with Yamaha’s<br />
Universal Dock connection for i-Pod. It has<br />
Bluetooth connectivity and can also be connected to i-Pod wirelessly.<br />
There is also an onscreen LED display and menus that make<br />
the YSP 2200 easier to control.<br />
Overall the YSP 2200 is a powerful performer. It is easy to handle<br />
and control, provides the user a variety of options to suit his/her<br />
needs and is easily and widely connectible and compatible.<br />
This sound bar may greatly improve and change one’s<br />
reception of sound and media itself.<br />
