Overview

Rated at 2.0 channels and 80 watts, this Yamaha home theater system offers 5 HDMI ports for connecting multiple sources, finished in black and weighing about 54 pounds.

The 5 HDMI inputs make this system capable of centralizing several devices, such as a streaming box, disc player, and game console, into one HDMI switching hub alongside its 2.0-channel amplification. At 54 pounds, expect a system with substantial included components rather than a single lightweight soundbar.

  • 2.0 channel, 80W output

Who it's for

Fits a home theater setup where the buyer wants one system to both amplify audio at 2.0 channels and switch between as many as 5 HDMI sources. Not intended for anyone wanting surround sound beyond stereo, since the channel count listed here is 2.0.
