    Great sound quality above its price range; app & remote are subpar; power-save feature annoying
    If you’re looking for a soundbar with integrated subwoofer and 3D sound with price as your top consideration, the overall audio quality is much better than others in this price range (both in television/movie context and when playing music through the bar). The breadth of input options is a big plus, and the placement of inputs as well as a ‘notch’ indentation at the top-rear of the soundbar makes it extremely convenient to access the two HDMI ports, optical audio port, ethernet connection and USB port (of value if you’re someone who prefers to do manual firmware updates) without unmounting the entire bar if you need to swap cables or add a connection. The WiFi setup process was straightforward and I was able to do it on the first attempt; WiFi connectivity has been stable and without any of the disconnections or repeated hassle of re-entering credentials that makes so many devices a hassle to own. Unfortunately, the mobile apps (Android/iOS) are terrible; I installed the app on both platforms, and neither make it easy to manage and control this soundbar from your phone or tablet. The interface is primitive, and Yamaha clearly did not invest much effort in thinking about how to organize the app. There is nothing intuitive about the icons, their placement, identifying what is informational vs. an icon you click to see additional options. I’m sure Yamaha saw integration with Alexa, Tidal, Spotify and QQ Music as valuable features to market this product, but I would easily trade whatever limited benefit these integrations offer for an app that didn’t require me to guess where to click (and then navigate three clicks deep into the app) just to get to the screen where controls for 3D Surround, Sound Program, Clear Voice option and Subwoofer Volume are buried. Finally, this soundbar includes a power-saving mode that turns the speaker off when you haven’t interacted with it via the remote or app for a while. Because there is no control I’ve been able to find in the app or on the remote to disable the power-saving more—or adjust the amount of time before it shuts off—I have had several infuriating moments when streaming a couple episodes of a series when the soundbar would turn off. More frustrating is that I connect the bar to my television via HDMI, with the soundbar connected between my TV and streaming box. When it abruptly powers off, it triggers the TV to try to find another input source and/or turns off my streaming box. The workaround is kind of ridiculous: every 15-20 minutes, I have to remember to push a button on the remote whether or not I need to adjust something. If I forget and I’m watching something that runs over an hour, I’m going to have to go through the hassle of powering it back on, switching my TV input back to HDMI, and so forth. It’s a great idea in terms of conserving power consumption, but Yamaha should know better than to integrate a feature without any user controls to disable or change the time before it goes off.

      Clear sound, good bass extension. I upgraded from an SR-C20A and it's exactly what I was hoping it would be. Highs are more crisp (as there are dedicated tweeters in this), mid-range is still very clear, and the subwoofer extends the bass. I especially like the sound profile and the center unit and the subwoofer - they are very well paired.

      If I had spent $350 I think I may be a little more picky but for the price it's currently going for ($169) there's nothing not to like.

      Style: ATS-2090BL-RVerified Purchase
      I am working on transforming part of my basement into a semi-finished space for a small exercise room. Sound off of a TV's built in speakers isn't going to cut it, so I needed a better solution.

      I wouldn't consider myself an audiophile, but I do appreciate good sound. I have a bunch of conventional receiver/speaker setups throughout the house - several 2.0 systems and a 5.1 in the living room.

      In this basement application, I wanted something simpler and cheaper. I compared this Yamaha setup to a similar Polk and Klipsch sound bar/sub combination. I have had positive experiences with all three brands, but ended up choosing the Yamaha mainly due to the killer price.

      The subwoofer was a little bigger than I expected for a 6.5" unit, but not big enough to be an issue in my intended location. One oddity with the bar itself - the mounting holes aren't 16" on center even though they easily could have been. I mounted it to a cedar plank wall and fortunately I still had the back side open and was able to add a couple 2x4s between studs to provide a more solid mounting point. On sheetrock, I think you'd be okay with good sized anchors since it isn't terribly heavy but it would still be better if Yamaha had gone with a standard 16" spacing to allow for hitting studs.

      The unit powered up right away and was relatively easy to add to my wireless network. It is 2.4 GHz only, like many smart home devices but this is okay for me. 2.4 GHz could have interference issues in a dense apartment building, however. The app is okay - it seems they should have fit more controls on one page, but I don't anticipate using it much.

      I immediately queued up some songs on Spotify to try it out. It played over the network without an issue. Rating the sound quality depends on what you're comparing it to. If I compare it to the RCF Monitors in my garage or my Yamaha driven Polk 5.1 setup in the living room it's not even close, but I wasn't expecting it to be given the huge difference in price. Compare it to a solid set of 2.1 computer speakers at a similar price point, though, and it'll absolutely blow them away. I unfortunately can't compare to other sound bars since I have limited experience with them.

      For this application, it's plenty. Music does sound good - the bass is solid for a 6.5" subwoofer, and the mids/highs are better than expected for such a compact unit. I've been using it while I continue remodeling the basement and I'm happy with the sound quality. I leave it set on stereo as other modes seem somewhat artificial to me.

      I did run into an issue with Bluetooth - I could not get it to appear as an option no matter how hard I tried. I performed a factory reset and that fixed the issue. Otherwise, it's been working very reliably.

      Bottom line: If you're looking for a secondary system in a basement or bedroom, this should suit your needs very well. For a small to medium sized living room, it would be acceptable and a whole lot better than TV speakers if you aren't willing to invest in a 5.1 or 7.1 system. For the price, it's tough to go wrong.

      I received this ATS-2090 soundbar from Yamaha in renewed condition. It arrived professionally repackaged, in custom formed protective styrofoam and each major component in a sealed plastic bag. The only piece which showed any evidence of prior use was one of the two power cords. The twist tie used to secure it was slightly distorted. No parts or documentation were missing.

      The firmware on the unit was out of date, but the sound bar automatically updated itself as soon as it was connected to my home WiFi network. I might comment that it (the soundbar) only supports 2.4GHz wireless networks. There is no 5GHz WiFi support. I had no problems installing the app on my iPhone, and I find the app easy to navigate and extremely useful.

      The sound quality is so much better than the built-in speakers on my bargain 40" flat panel TV. I knew the built-in speakers were bad, but after enjoying this sound bar it would be impossible to go back. I did adjust the bass level to +0 (it is set to +3 as a default) and I turned off the "bass extension" option using the app. With these adjustments, the bass from the wireless subwoofer integrates reasonably well and really accentuates most any TV program or movie soundtrack. I do have the wireless subwoofer located a few inches away from the wall, near a corner of the room, and just behind the TV itself.

      The actual connectivity took a little bit of experimentation. This is not a problem with the soundbar itself, but rather a consequence of the technology. My TV does not have an ARC capable HDMI connection. I am currently using the HDMI pass-through feature of the sound bar, and I have not connected the optical cable. My TV input comes only from an Android TV device, which streams content from a DLNA server, as well as Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, etc. The pass-through works perfectly for this application. It will still require a small learning curve for my family to become accustomed to turning the soundbar on prior to use, or perhaps I will need to defeat the auto power off feature (as described in the manual).

      I did experiment with the CEC settings on my TV to prevent devices from turning on or off unexpectedly, and I think I also needed to set the HDMI audio output setting on my Android device to PCM, Dolby Digital, or DTS. This is all noted in the Yamaha documentation. Again, further trial & error with CEC settings may be helpful, as it would be nice if the sound bar faithfully turned on & off with the TV.

      I would definitely purchase this sound bar again, especially at the renewed price. I'm considering buying a second for the TV set in the rec room... can I run two of the wireless subs in the same household without problems? Highly recommended.

      (10/18 - edited for grammar and writing style)

      11/20 - Owned for over a month now. I’m still extremely pleased. There’s been no weird situations where “it just stopped working” or anything like that. Totally would buy again.

      Qualidade do som espetacular, infelizmente Alexa (em português) NÃO controla Tidal!

      O App da Yamaha é terrível, lento, ruim em tudo, pede login toda hora, não habilita o corretor ortográfico, toda vez que inicia o App tem que localizar e adicionar a barra novamente! No Tidal o App só aceita playlist com até 100 músicas! Enfim, não tem nada positivo no app!

      5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific compact soundbar to extend your TV speakers

      My criteria when I bought this soundbar was to 1. Extend the speaker capabiliies of my TV 2. Have better voice clarity when we watched movies and TV shows. TV speakers have a tendency to amplify background and drown out dialogues. This absolutely didn't disappoint. At a very affordable price, the YAS 109 delivers "clear voice" that makes dialogues clear and makes music sound great.

      I wall mounted it, very easy to so using the mounting guide. WIFI setup was a breeze though the app on Play Store has terrible reviews. Alexa integration is very good and again was easy to setup. If you have a TV that supports ARC (most modern LED TVs do), you are set. The package DOES NOT include a HDMI cable. Make sure you order a good cable like blue rigger.

      Overall great buy at an affordable price.

      Es una excelente barra, muy buen sonido, si no eres exigente con los bajos su subwoofer integrado será suficiente y si no, le puedes agregar otro bajo por cable de cualquier otra marca.
      Yo he comprado 2 de estas barras para diferentes espacios y ambas las compré en precio de oferta, una por $4,800 y la otra por $5,750 y no hay barras que te den esta calidad de sonido + conectividad wifi y la posibilidad de vincular con Alexa en este rango de precio. No recomiendo comprarla en su precio regular de $8,000, por ese precio mejor buscar la Sonos Beam en precio de oferta.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect sound bar setup. Seller too was knowledgeable and helpful

      It's been about 6 months that I have been using this product and I think it's perfect for the cost you pay. The audio quality is sublime. The installation process was simple. Had a small issue at first but the seller was really sweet and help get it rectified at the earliest.

      The drawback I faced was that it's not very friendly to the Mi TV. You need to set it to TV mode manually. The rest is fine.

      The bluetooth range is short but not a deal breaker.
