Would you pay $1800 for Yamaha's YSP-4300 sound bar?

Sounds like anything with a ".1" is working where anything in "2.0" isn't. Pages 12-14 in your manual seem to indicate that it may not be possible to pass certain frequencies from a 2.0 signal to the sub, only the LFE/.1 channel. I could be wrong. I'd check with ML on this one.

Marshall:

Thanks for all the feedback. The last one did confuse things a bit more but I stuck to my resolve that i wanted only a soundbar for now. Just purely for simplicity and not to knock the socks off of my neighbors witha powerful system

I went to bestbuy, and got the ML - they haga limited time offer where they have me the dynamo 500 for free!!

The setup sounds phenomenal!! And the sound is just perfect for my apartment. I saw GI Joe: Retaliation (Blu-Ray), and Mud (DVD), both through my PS3. Like the audioholics review, some of the sounds did sound like It was coming from the sides!!

I have an issue where the sub doesn't seem to have an output when I listen to stuff from my TV, but the Ps3 output was perfect, and the sub kicked in. Is something wrong with my setup?

Sir, it might seem like a small thing, but it surely will improve the bottom end. Your picture showa the sub firing down into carpet. it was designed as a side firing subwoofer. Once you stand it up properly adjust what is called "loading" by the angle into a corner. We use it constantly proffessionally.

Actually, page 13 of the owners manual clearly shows the subwoofer is designed for both a vertical and horizontal installation. Either way, I used the sub both ways, primarily in a vertical configuration corner-loaded, and I stand by my assessment that the low-frequency reproduction is a weak point.
