The SRT-1000 comes with a great degree of flexibility, as it features 2 optical connections, 1 coaxial, 1 stereo RCA and has a subwoofer output making it easy to connect to any TV-set. The unit itself is extremely sturdy and is designed to support TV sizes up to 55-inches.
The SRT-1000 features a set of unique and useful Yamaha technologies built in. As one example, which is similar to their YSP-1400 soundbar, an 8 sound-beam system is utilized which bounces said beams around your room to give you a true surround sound experience, up to 5.1 channels. It’s based on Yamaha's Intellibeam technology found on higher end soundbars, but refined to be more affordable and accessible.
The soundbase can be controlled through the HT Controller app that allows the user to switch inputs, control subwoofer levels, adjust DSP and more importantly calibrate the SRT-1000 by dragging a finger around the app’s control interface. The app works using Bluetooth connectivity, so while controlling the SRT-1000 you can also stream music to it from your Bluetooth enabled device. The HT Controller is available for free from the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.
The SRT-1000 features a pair of woofers with independent bass reflex ports specifically designed to reduce unwanted resonance by facilitating a smooth flow of air. According to Yamaha press release, “the overall result is a deep, rich and clear bass that will be difficult to compete with”. The SRT-1000 will be available in late Summer 2014.
