Yamaha YSP-5600 MusicCast Sound Bar with Dolby Atmos/DTS:X - 100W
The Yamaha YSP-5600 MusicCast Sound Bar with Dolby Atmos/DTS:X Sound Bar is a revolutionary product that takes your TV sound to a new dimension. With a remarkable 46 speaker drivers and Yamaha exclusive Digital Sound Projector technology, it delivers Dolby Atmos and DTS:X multi-dimensional listening experiences. This sound bar is one of the world's first sound bars with 7.1.2-channel multi-dimensional sound, and it can provide wireless multiroom audio playback using your existing Wi-Fi network by adding other MusicCast speakers, sound bars or AV receivers in other rooms.
The YSP-5600 employs 44 precisely calculated and positioned beam drivers and two woofers, effectively creating 7-channel sound beams (front left/right, center, surround left/right, height left/right). Using Yamaha Digital Sound Projector technology, each speaker is controlled by individual delay times and is driven with its own independent amplifier circuit. These beams are projected onto the walls and ceiling, and reflected to the listening position. The height channels are created by placing six array speakers on each end of the unit (a total of 12). For the maximum sound beam effect, they are mounted on an angled baffle with sound beam vertical control.
The YSP-5600 is the first sound bar to create height channels, and it supports the latest surround format, Dolby Atmos. It transports you from an ordinary moment into an extraordinary experience with captivating, multidimensional sound that fills your room with amazing richness and depth. Music, people, and objects come alive in breathtaking detail and flow in precise choreography all around you, making you feel like you are truly there. The combination of Dolby Atmos and the YSP-5600 will fill the room with multidimensional sound that makes you feel like you are in the middle of the action.
Overall, the Yamaha YSP-5600 MusicCast Sound Bar with Dolby Atmos/DTS:X Sound Bar is a beautifully designed product that

FAQ
Q: How do I get an Atmos signal out from my smart TV to this soundbar?
A: You just need to set up the sound output on the TV to bitstream so the soundbar can process the raw signal.
Q: Can the unit work with 220V of power supply?
A: The US and Canada model is 110V only. International models are 220V.
Q: Can I get Atmos effect by connecting the source to the TV, and then the TV to the soundbar via ARC?
A: Yes, but not full uncompressed Atmos. You can pass compressed Atmos over DD+ via regular ARC.
Q: Does it support 220-240V or only 110V?
A: The product supports both 200/240V and 110V for international models.
Q: Can it be used out of the box in India? Voltage 220 V 50 Hz
A: No, it cannot be used out of the box in India as it does not support 220V power supply.
Q: Are the voices lost in the room or can I identify the sound side with the scene in the TV like a plane moving from Yemen to the left?
A: For a soundbar, voice and sound separation are impressive. You can identify left to right sounds, as well as above and behind sounds once the system is calibrated with the furnished IntelliBeam microphone. The sound is even more dispersed with Blu-ray or high-resolution audio content. Adding a subwoofer can improve low-frequency sound.
Q: YSP 5600 out of the box has a very strong odor, similar to burning an electrical device. Thoughts?
A: There should not be any strong odor when unboxing this product. If you experience such an issue, contact Yamaha customer support for assistance.
Q: Will this work with Apple Music?
A: Yes, it should work with Apple Music as long as it can connect to the MusicCast app.
Q: What is the max size of the room for this soundbar?
A: The soundbar can calibrate itself. It works well in a 1000sqft open floor plan room with 12’ ceiling, and the ATMOS imaging is better in smaller rooms.
