Title: Overrated
Review: Based on the rave reviews and Yamaha's reputation I decided to purchase these speakers. After listening to them I can say that the sound quality reminds me of cheap computer speaker that come free when you buy a computer system. The subwoofer does sound as good as other reviewers have mentioned but that's the only good thing I can say. The satellites produce sounds come out muffled and weak.I bought these thinking I was upgrading from my 2 piece Advent AV180 speakers. I was wrong. The Advents have a clearer sound coming out of it that sound similar to speakers from a home stereo system. The Yamahas satellites are 6 watts while the Advents are 7.5 watts. So the power is similar but the sound quality of the Advent speakers are sooo much better.Yamaha usually has excellent sound systems, this is NOT one of them. If you're thinking "but there are so many good reviews", then you better think twice.
Is the review positive or negative?
