Max level distortion is kinda normal for something like this, should never run full max on any stereo/speaker, a few clicks down from the distortion point is usually a good place to hang out gives you some wiggle room. I'm no expert but I've tuned a few bangin systems.
My soundbar came dead out of box. The circuit board required replacement. The SB is now installed after repair and works very well. The Alexa feature takes 2 minutes to set up and HDMI connection can be easily controlled by TV remote - TCL 65s546. Supersounding SB as we do not want the walls rattling. Perfect voice and picks up all small instruments in use on music. I use the stereo function as every concert I have attended has a wall of speakers in front right and left. Not sure why anyone requires surround for music. I do not game or watch superhero movies.
I agree. It's extremely rare. I did find a newish soundbar by Denon that was released a few months ago which has a sub out too. I want a soundbar with sub out myself.
@@Andy-kw5nw apparently it's supposed to sound really good. I could only find one English TH-cam review of it but there's a few written reviews of it. I'll probably be buying one on Amazon on Thursday
Great video man , question would you think the Bose tv speaker is better then the Yamaha 109 ? I am thinking of buying of this two just dont know which one .
I have a 26 inch Samsung TV and got a Bose Solo5 unit as the built in speakers were not exactly great. I recently had to replace the Bose unit as it wouldn’t turn on and then would not turn off and ended up making very funny buzzing noises like an angry wasp before it died.The difference between the Yamaha and the Bose is noticeable, Yamaha seem to put a bit of thought into things and it shows. Sadly the Bose unit was ok but not as good as it could have been. The setup is fairly easy and the app is definitely worth having on your phone. I would suggest spending a little time trying out the presets to see what works for you. The Yamaha name is very discreet on the front of the unit, it’s a sensible weight of about 5KG and quite solid. I would wait a while before deciding to get an extra bass speaker as you might decide it’s fine for you as it is. My only query is adjusting the built in Alexa, it works ok but the unit won’t allow me to change the location, not a big problem but one that would be nice to sort. Once again Yamaha have shown why they are so popular and well regarded around the globe.
Thanks Kosher for a detailed n one of the best review of YAS 109 out there. If i get a decent Sub separately, I was having a little doubt between YAS109, Polk Audio signa s2 and Jbl 2.1.. Which one would you recommend ?
Great review! Because this soundbars speakers face the ceiling when it's sitting on a tv unit, do you think it reduces the sound quality or how immersive it is compared to similar quality soundbars with speakers pointing towards you?
Some of the reviews I read on Amazon; people say the 109 goes into standby mode after 20 min. A lot of people are returning it. Did u experience anything like that with your review?
save your money and get the upgrade the 109 constantly shuts itself off if it's idle for too long and it's not that long of a time. Unless there's a way to turn off that bug/feature.
I love the sound glad to see that it’s ported that definitely helps performance! Also if you ever want to test mainly bass the song Bass Monster by Psyph Morrison is a great one. It’s not really a song you would listen too normally but it can seriously flex woofers. Love the vid!
I'm looking to buy this for the sub out feature. I have a klipsch r100s powered sub so I'm good on that end. Right now I'm debating between the Yas 109 and the jbl 550wat soundbar with10inch sub. Again I have a powered sub I'm just looking for loud highs JBL 499 Yas 109 399 Not on a specific budget Thoughts?
Is the sound better with the 5" wide facing out (wall mount) vs laying down on a stand . It seems in one case the speakers will either facing toward you or facing the ceiling. Thanks
Great vid. Can you tell me if the Alexa works "hands free" or you need to push the remote button before speaking? I ask since I see an Alexa button at the remote... thanks!
Yo brother, thanks for the Ave review man. I already have a 109 on order, is there an external sub that you would recommend, or did you do a video on any? Thanks dude, roll on!
Yas-109 or yas-207? I know the 207 has a sub but I live in a condo and its too much power so I always have to have it on one of the lower/lowest settings. With the 109 the mids are better and I can put it on my stand and wont rumble the ground. But what you think my guy?
Great review man! Should I buy the 109 or spend an extra 50 bucks and get the JBL 2.1 deep base. Like I think the 109 is a better sound at by itself and I’m leaning towards that but do u think it’s a better idea to get the JBL with the sub? Thanks!
KosherTech thanks a lot man! I was debating this for forever but yeah I agree I should go for the better standalone sound bar and then add a sub whenever
Hey Kosh, what can you suggest between this Yamaha YAS-109 and the Bose Solo 5? I see they have a similar price. Your opinion will afford me to decide which one to buy!
Thanks for the review..I had a lg 2.1 320w and it was amazing!! But it had issues with subwoofer randomly getting unpaired and it's very difficult to pair it back..so was looking for one without a sub but I love bass..thinking of buying this one. Do you think it will be close to the LG one ? Covid 19 is making me think twice to visit the store for a comparison demo..another qstn.. Can we disable Alexa ? I already have another alexa device in my living room.

Hi Kosher.... I just watched your review ... It's fantastic... I was planning for this one but have a doubt between this and Bose solo 5. I know this one has an advantage of provision to add sub. But without sub what do you suggest?
I'll take either the YAS108 or 109 anytime over the Bose solo 5. Go with Yamaha you'll love it. Also check out the Polk Magnfii Mini, it's also pretty beast.

Hi KT, I am a UK viewer o.f your video. I sent a Sonos Beam back as it wasn't giving me $399 worth of sound difference with my Samsung 55" Q95T. I was nearly going for the Bose TV Sound bar until I saw this. Would you still recommend the YAS 109, as it's driving me nuts trying to make any choice.. Many thanks Terry Davis
Thank you for this video, in front of this reference jungle I am lost but recently I saw three bar references that I liked (quality / price) JBL 2.1 300w Sony ht-x8500 Yamaha yas 207 Your opinion interests me enormously what would be your proposal for a 30m2 room. thank you so much
I saw your review on the YAS 108 as well. In your personal and professional opinion. Which do you prefer better. My living connects with my kitchen so the room is pretty open. Is it loud enough to fill a decent size room. Great reviews by the way. Thanks.
KosherTech I’ll look into that. I should have mentioned. The reason I was looking at the YAS 108/109 is the subwoofer out feature. My current soundbar has that feature and it’s paired with the Klipsch R-100SW.
@@raymondkhan2709 I have purchased it. I have it in my game room so it’s not a very large room. As far as loud, it’s not bad, not sure how it would do in a large living room. I will say, the built in subwoofers are not impressive at all. I did pair it with a Yamaha 10” wired sub so that made a big difference. It doesn’t hit as hard as the Klipsch sub.
I'm looking at buying a soundbar. I'm torn between this YAS 109 , YAS 107 or the Denon DHT s-216. I have a YAMAHA NS SW300 subwoofer which I'll be connecting to the soundbar. I'll only be using the soundbar while watching TV or when I'm to lazy to turn on my 6.1 system 😂. Also the soundbar will be used most of the time unless I'm watching a good movie because it uses a lot less electricity than my SONY STR DN1020. It's all about saving electricity
With Amazon's smart assistant onboard, the sound bar quickly becomes the go-to device. With the HDMI input support 4K HDR video passthrough including HDR10. The YAS 109 is easily one of the best performing and affordable sound bars when it comes to overall fidelity. With the MediaTek chip, it enables the sound bar to perform smoothly and much efficiently.
Great review man! I’ve spent two hours trying to figure out how to use the YAS 109 with headphones. I was told that it absolutely WILL work with headphones - probably Bluetooth only. Please please advise. I’m not a Soundbar pro. This is my first one.
Absolutely. At night. Small apartment. Can’t use the TV outs either. And I was told it is headphone compatible. Interesting. Thanks for the lightning fast reply.
1st impressions are great! The biggest thing I've noticed is not to trust the "music" button, movie or TV both make music sound better and overall this soundbar sounds great! I find it sounds especially good while watching any show or movie with music in it, it separates both perfectly so that you can easily hear both without one over stepping the other and i can confirm the 3d audio is booty keep that shit off lol
Merci pour cette video, devant cette jungle de référence je suis perdue mais dernièrement j'ai vu trois références de barre que j'ai aimé (qualité /prix) JBL 2.1 300w Sony ht-x8500 Yamaha yas 207 Votre avis m'intéresse énormément quelle serait votre proposition pour une pièce de 30m2.

You really need an external subwoofer to go with this. The soundbar woofers just can't handle the bass. I have the Polk Audio PSW10 sub with this bar - put the soundbar subwoofer to -1. All the bass goes to the PSW10 and it's a really nice sound for the price.
Hi! Thanks so much for the review. I'm in dilemma which soundbar should I choose, between Bose 5, JBL 2.0 and this Yamaha - within the same range. I'm going to choose YAS-109 then 👍🏻
Let me know what u guy's thought of the YAS 109 😉
Hi please review the YAS 209
I'll try brah brah
I got the Yamaha ATS-1080 35", how this compared to the YAS 109? will appreciate the suggestion.
Is the ats-108 same as Yas 108?
@Richard Kuan ats 1080 or yas 109?
Denon also allows additional connection of external subwoofers. It has also a full set of cables, whatoevet you need.
Max level distortion is kinda normal for something like this, should never run full max on any stereo/speaker, a few clicks down from the distortion point is usually a good place to hang out gives you some wiggle room. I'm no expert but I've tuned a few bangin systems.

4:20 Do you mean RCA jack? Or SPDIF? ARC is HDMI I thought. Who can answer in case he's not monitoring the threads.
RCA for sub out
@@KosherTech Thanks!
Anytime brah brah
No hdmi cable? Why?
Great video man , question would you think the Bose tv speaker is better then the Yamaha 109 ? I am thinking of buying of this two just dont know which one .
Thanks for the review!! This one or the Samsung T450 with subwoofer ?
Nice reviews. Question: I have a new LG 4k with Dolby Atmos. will this soundbar work well my my TV? Will the Atoms improve this soundbar or now dif?
I mean to be honest u might hear a difference but it won't be mind-blowing. It's also a new selling point that these companies try to push.
If you have this connected via Bluetooth or wired to a TV ,and use the Alexa feature does it automatically override what you are listening to ?
Should’ve went into detail, ATOMs capability?
Hi,watching netflix with virtual dts x some surround effect is appreciated? Thanks!!!
Thanks for the review. Please let me know: Can you connect Bluetooth headphones to this? Does it do Apple AirPlay2?
Not sure haven't tested it with that.
I dont think you can since it's meant to play audio from a source not as a pass through but im an android guy so can't say for 100% certain
It is posible plug a microphone and use it as a karaoke playing videos in youtube? A mean hearing tv and mic at the same time?
That I am not sure about
if alexa and spotify feature is not recommend which sound is best Yas 109 Or Yas 108 or both soundbar is same in sound output quality. thx

Was looking for a review of this sound bar and came across your channel. Great review. Thanks 🙏
Appreciate that 💯
Is the sound better with the 5" wide facing out (wall mount) vs laying down on a stand .
It seems in one case the speakers will either facing toward you or facing the ceiling.
Thanks
Brah brah I didn't have it facing me via wall mount. I think it won't make the difference sound quality should be the same.
"You could always lower the bass." No. No, you can't. Ever. Never lower the bass.
Haha u know that's the truth lol
The only type of lowering we can do is completely dropping that bass. Take it or leave it :P
How many watts of output power?

Anytime let me know let me know what you get and let me know how you like it
Bought this unit after my YSP 2700 failed, hopefully its not too far behind that unit in quality.
Thank you for this video, in front of this reference jungle I am lost but recently I saw three bar references that I liked (quality / price)
JBL 2.1 300w
Sony ht-x8500
Yamaha yas 207
Your opinion interests me enormously what would be your proposal for a 30m2 room. thank you so much
I saw your review on the YAS 108 as well. In your personal and professional opinion. Which do you prefer better. My living connects with my kitchen so the room is pretty open. Is it loud enough to fill a decent size room. Great reviews by the way. Thanks.
Brah brah check my soundcore infinity pro soundbar. I think I might take that. But between the 108 or 109 the 109 since it's a newer model
KosherTech I’ll look into that. I should have mentioned. The reason I was looking at the YAS 108/109 is the subwoofer out feature. My current soundbar has that feature and it’s paired with the Klipsch R-100SW.
@@ROMERO4855 on the same boat. Klipsch r100s sub... Have you purchased your Yas 109 ? How loud is it
@@raymondkhan2709 I have purchased it. I have it in my game room so it’s not a very large room. As far as loud, it’s not bad, not sure how it would do in a large living room. I will say, the built in subwoofers are not impressive at all. I did pair it with a Yamaha 10” wired sub so that made a big difference. It doesn’t hit as hard as the Klipsch sub.
@@ROMERO4855 thanks for the heads-up. Appreciate it
I'm looking at buying a soundbar. I'm torn between this YAS 109 , YAS 107 or the Denon DHT s-216. I have a YAMAHA NS SW300 subwoofer which I'll be connecting to the soundbar. I'll only be using the soundbar while watching TV or when I'm to lazy to turn on my 6.1 system 😂. Also the soundbar will be used most of the time unless I'm watching a good movie because it uses a lot less electricity than my SONY STR DN1020. It's all about saving electricity
Yas-109 or the Polk S2?
Yas 109
Please what's the size?
Check on Amazon it has the dimensions
Yas 108 or bose 300?
Bose 300 ain't a sound bar
which is better jbl sb260 o this ?
Haven't reviewed the 260
With Amazon's smart assistant onboard, the sound bar quickly becomes the go-to device. With the HDMI input support 4K HDR video passthrough including HDR10. The YAS 109 is easily one of the best performing and affordable sound bars when it comes to overall fidelity. With the MediaTek chip, it enables the sound bar to perform smoothly and much efficiently.
Well put 💯
Great review man! I’ve spent two hours trying to figure out how to use the YAS 109 with headphones. I was told that it absolutely WILL work with headphones - probably Bluetooth only. Please please advise. I’m not a Soundbar pro. This is my first one.
I'm not sure if it will work with headphones. U might have to get some TV headphones. Ur trying to wear the headphones at night to listen to the TV?
Absolutely. At night. Small apartment. Can’t use the TV outs either. And I was told it is headphone compatible. Interesting. Thanks for the lightning fast reply.
U can try to us Bluetooth see if that works.
Yas-306 ???? Any review
Yas 306? Send me a link to that plz
@@KosherTech europe.yamaha.com/en/products/audio_visual/sound_bar/yas-306/index.html . I'd love to here what you think of one 👍🏻👍🏻
It's not in the usa yet. At least not on Amazon
@@KosherTech oh lol , it's been out 3 years 🤣
Lol oh well 🤷♀️
Alexa is a big upgrade
Just bought a Samsung q80t bout to go pick up the 109 will update in afew weeks with my thoughts
Yo let me know how u like the 109 with that tv plz
@@KosherTech I surely will ill be getting it tomorrow
💯
1st impressions are great! The biggest thing I've noticed is not to trust the "music" button, movie or TV both make music sound better and overall this soundbar sounds great! I find it sounds especially good while watching any show or movie with music in it, it separates both perfectly so that you can easily hear both without one over stepping the other and i can confirm the 3d audio is booty keep that shit off lol
Thanks made decision EASY
Please review yas 207 or ats 2070
I'll see what I can do, thank u.
how do you connect it to Alexa
Download the Amazon Alexa app on ur phone
Country name ?? Unboxing
? Whatcha speak?
What is better 108 or 109? Don't really care for alexa
To be honest they both sounded the same for me. I really can't tell any new audio features besides Alexa.
KosherTech does the 108 have wifi for software updates?
Is the build quality the same?
Nah no wifi
Yeah pretty much. Even same amount of sound drivers.
excelent going to buy it for pc speakers
can u compare it with bose solo 5 and jbl soundbars ...which is better ??
It destroys the Bose Solo 5.
what about jbl 2.1 soundbar
I reviewed that sound bar
@@KosherTech am asking is yamaha better than this jbl??
The JBL comes with a sub. It is hard to compare. But if u just take both of those soundbars I would go with the Yamaha YAS 109 or 108
Merci pour cette video, devant cette jungle de référence je suis perdue mais dernièrement j'ai vu trois références de barre que j'ai aimé (qualité /prix)
JBL 2.1 300w
Sony ht-x8500
Yamaha yas 207
Votre avis m'intéresse énormément quelle serait votre proposition pour une pièce de 30m2. Merci infiniment

Try the Yas 207
@@KosherTech thank you
Yahama 109 or Sony ht x 8500
I haven't reviewed that Sony HTX8500 yet brah brah. Idk if I can give I a fair comparison on which one to go with.
You really need an external subwoofer to go with this. The soundbar woofers just can't handle the bass. I have the Polk Audio PSW10 sub with this bar - put the soundbar subwoofer to -1. All the bass goes to the PSW10 and it's a really nice sound for the price.
I have a jbl 2.0 soundbar and no distortion with max bass and max volume. That distortion on this supposed "best" sound bar sounds pretty gross imo 👎🏻
Hi! Thanks so much for the review. I'm in dilemma which soundbar should I choose, between Bose 5, JBL 2.0 and this Yamaha - within the same range. I'm going to choose YAS-109 then 👍🏻
Yamaha!!!!!!!!
exacto, bose 5 es pura mercadotecnia y un precio muy alto. El Yamaha sale vencedor entre bose 5 y JBL 2.0.
'Yaaaaaaaas
which do you think would be the winner between this one vs Anker Soundcore Infini Pro?
Might go with the anker
@@KosherTech thanks for the reply, at the end I went for the LG SN7Y, I think it has the best of the 2 worlds, what do you think about the LG?
what wrong is with y dude ?!
it sucks bluetooth works than no work . wasted money!!!
You need to slow down your speech if you want all people to follow what you are saying.
No match to Yamaha
