  • Great starter set up
Great starter system. Fairly easy to set up, but the sound quality is loads better than the sound bar set up I had before. For the price I don't think there's anything that compares. Granted, it's not the same as getting a Sonos or Klipsch setup, but it's also thousands less than either of those will run you. Definitely worth considering if you're on a budget. ... show more

  • This is a sexist Review... Do not read
This system is just like a beautiful woman. It looks awesome and sounds even better. If it doesn't want to work, then you are just gonna have to deal with it for a while, but is really worth it in the long run. All your friends will comment on how great it is so long they don't have to put up with the little details. They definitely don't get to touch it but they can admire. Samsung TV's will fight you with this. About the only way I get it to work long term is to run an expensive optical cable from the tv to the unit. No Problems now but it defeats the purpose of all those hdmi's on the back. To sum up, by the time you realize how much trouble this is, you have already spent so much time and money on it, you will just be happy to sit down and watch tv. ... show more

  • Nice Starter theater system with nice sound but tricky setup.
This is a nice system for the price. It comes with everything you need to get started in theater systems without blowing the bank and still provides awesome sound. It comes with 2 front and 2 rear speakers and a small subwoofer. The subwoofer in the system is the NS-SW050 which is an 8" 50w sub. that is better than if you had no sub, BUT if you purchase a larger powered sub later on it will make a MUCH BIGGER difference! I connected my system not as a surround but as just a music streaming stereo player and have it powering a pair of Klipsch Reference R-620F's. After pulling out my hair with the MusicCast app. I finally got it to connect with my Amazon music and WOW, what a beautiful full sound! I do not understand WHY it is so difficult for all these companies that put out their own apps. for their streaming equipment to offer a simple way to search for and connect to most if not all the streaming devices available today. The first company that invests in the tech and hardware to do that will have me sold for life. BE prepared to jump through hoops with MULTIPLE apps. to finally get some music streaming out of your system BUT it is no different than with ALL the major manufacturers that offer streaming devices. Overall a good system to start with and it offers some nice sound which if later you start adding some good speakers and nicer sub it will make you happy! ... show more

  • Great starter home theater setup.
The amplifier is very good for this price range and the subwoofer works very well for it's size. The speakers are acceptable but not great. They work well for the rear surround and center channel but you may eventually want to upgrade the front speakers to an entry-level set of bookshelf or floor speakers. If you do you'll probably be very happy, I am =) ... show more

  • Piece of junk. Really disappointed.
Piece of junk. Worked nearly all day to set it up correctly. Turned it on first time and it worked about a minute. Heard a crackle sound and it shut down. Flashing red light afterwards. Won’t power up just red flashing light. Really frustrating. I was gung-ho on Yamaha, but now, not so much. Also not happy with speaker connections. They are cheap little clips that won’t hold the speaker wires. They kept falling out. So disappointed. ... show more

  • Easy to install and powerful sound!
We wanted to upgrade our sound system. Delivery and packaging were great! I am not tech savvy by any means but was able to install this with no issues! The different setting options are great that you can adjust to whatever you are watching. I like the sleek design of the speakers that I can still have the powerful sound without the bulky speakers all over the room. Only downside is the receiver is a bit on the bulky side so I had to buy a platform for it to be able to sit on my floating tv stand. But other than that this is a great system! ... show more

  • Sound is fantastic
I live in a condominium, so I can't make it very loud, but the sound quality is amazing. Very easy to use

  • Great Sound, but Lacks Modern Connectivity
I purchased the Yamaha YHT-5960U Home Theater System, primarily to connect my turntable, but my impressions have been mixed. Pros: • Sound Quality: The sound is impressive. Audio output is clear and full, making it perfect for both movies and music. • Loudness: The system can get loud without distorting the sound, which is great for larger rooms or those who enjoy a more immersive experience. Cons: • Wiring Connections: Connecting the wires on the back of the unit is quite challenging, especially if you don’t have small fingers. The connectors are not user-friendly and can become frustrating during setup. • Outdated Setup Interface: The on-screen setup feels like something from a past era. Navigating through the settings on the TV is clunky and far from intuitive, which detracts from the overall user experience. • Bluetooth Connectivity: Bluetooth is surprisingly unreliable. Previously connected devices seem to be randomly stored or erased, and I haven’t figured out any consistent pattern behind this behavior. • MusicCast App: The MusicCast app feels underdeveloped. It’s as if it were a high school project, with a lack of polish and features. The app’s usability leaves much to be desired, making it hard to control the system via mobile devices. In summary, while the Yamaha YHT-5960U delivers in sound quality and volume, it falls short in terms of ease of use and modern connectivity features. If you’re after great sound and can tolerate some setup headaches, it’s still worth considering. However, if seamless connectivity and modern app control are important to you, this system might be a bit of a letdown. I have to add one star; after the last firmware update, Bluetooth connectivity is decent. ... show more
