Samsung HW-Q90R vs Yamaha YSP-5600

Samsung HW-Q90R review

Comparing Samsung vs Yamaha I can’t go by the fact that the first has 7.1.4 channels while its opponent has 7.1.2. The power is 512W (overall) vs 90W respectively. The soundbar Samsung HW-Q90R does not have an on-board calibration function, unlike some other high-quality systems like Yamaha YSP-5600. For ordinary consumers, this threatens with a “loss of sound" at this price category. Moreover, the soundbar supports Atmos in the 7.1.4 sound scheme. It requires a separate setup. The plus is that Samsung provides the necessary settings so that you can manually optimize the sound system. This can be done using smooth volume control, here you can control various channels separately.

Yamaha YSP-5600 review

Its uniqueness lies in the ability to listen to songs in the Dolby Atmos and DTS:X formats, which gives more volume and realism to any sound track. To organize the sound in the lower range, midrange and woofer speakers are used. The body dimensions are ideally provided in order to form a deep bass that will leave an indescribable feeling from listening to any composition. In 3D Surround mode, you can additionally select CINEMA DSP 3D, and in Surround mode, CINEMA DSP, which are advanced versions of both, provide a wider sound scene.
