Your first clue as to the quality of this unit comes when you pick up the carton as it weighs just under 30 lbs., and when it comes to speakers...

Well i bought my Ysp 900 around a month back ...  ease of installation Should have had more Digital input Well i bought my Ysp 900 around a month back and is a great upgrade from the puny sound you get from regular plasma or lcd screens.

A Good Compromise As stated by others, this is not a "true" surround sound system. However, it works very well at expanding the sound stage.

It looks as nice as it sounds. The sound imaging is clear and well-focused. The best sound-bar on the market that you can buy for around $1.

Voice Characteristics

The Voice type and its dening characteristics are indicated above the Preset Voice name.
S. Articulation! (PSR-S900) The Super Articulation voices sound remarkably authentic and natural, featuring the unique performance characteristics of each instrument for example, guitar scratching sounds or the legato phrasing of wind instruments. They provide many of the same benets as the MegaVoices (see below), but with greater playability and expressive control in real time. To effectively play these natural sounds in performance of certain voices, you may need to use the pedal or footswitch. For details on how to best play each voice, call up the Information window (pressing the [7] button in the Voice Selection display). The Mega Voices are not intended to be played from the keyboard. They are primarily designed for use with recorded MIDI sequence data (such as songs and styles). Some of the guitar and bass Voices in particular have been created as Mega Voices. What makes Mega Voices special is their use of velocity switching. Normal Voices use velocity switching, tooto make the sound quality and/ or level of a Voice according to how strongly or softly you play it. This makes the instruments Voices sound authentic and natural. However, with Mega Voices, each velocity range (the measure of your playing strength) has a completely different sound. For example, a Mega guitar Voice includes the sounds of various performance techniques. In conventional instruments, different Voices having those sounds would be called up via MIDI and played in combination to achieve the desired effect. However, now with Mega Voices, a convincing guitar part can be played with just a single Voice, using specic velocity values to play the desired sounds. Because of the complex nature of these Voices and the precise velocities need to play the sounds, theyre not intended for playing from the keyboard. They are, however, very useful and convenient when creating MIDI dataespecially when you want to avoid using several different Voices just for a single instrument part. These acoustic instrument sounds were sampled in stereo, to produce a truly authentic, rich soundfull of atmosphere and ambience. These Voices capture the dynamic textures and subtle nuances of electric instrumentsthanks to a huge amount of memory and some very sophisticated programming. These acoustic instrument sounds also benet from Yamahas sophisticated technologyand feature a sound so nely detailed and natural, youll swear youre playing the real thing! Various drum and percussion sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the sounds from the keyboard. Various special effect sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the sounds from the keyboard. This authentic organ Voice lets you use the Voice Set to adjust the various footages and craft your own original organ sounds. See page 103 for details.

Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power of all the components. Also, before turning any components on or off, make sure to set all volume levels to minimum (0). Otherwise, electrical shock or damage to the components may occur.
When these are connected, you can use the instruments [MASTER VOLUME] control to adjust the volume of the sound output to the external device. Connect the instruments OUTPUT [L/L+R]/[R] jacks (standard phone jacks) and the input jacks of a pair of powered speakers using appropriate audio cables. Use only the [L/L+R] jack for connection with a monaural device.

Connecting Audio & Video Devices
Use audio cables and adaptor plugs having no (zero) resistance. Phone plug (standard) Phone plug (standard) Input jack
Using External Audio Devices for Playback (1 [OUTPUT] jacks)
You can connect these jacks to a stereo system to amplify the instruments sound. The microphone or guitar sound connected to the instruments [MIC/LINE IN] jack is output at the same time. Use audio cables for connection as shown in the diagrams. These jacks are located on the underside jacks panel of the instrument.
When the instruments sound is output to an external device, rst turn on the power to the instrument, then to the external device. Reverse this order when you turn the power off. Do not route the output from the [OUTPUT] jacks to the [AUX IN] jacks. If you make this connection, the signal input at the [AUX IN] jacks is output from the [OUTPUT] jacks. These connections could result in a feedback loop that will make normal performance impossible, and may even damage both pieces of equipment.

Audio cable

Playing External Audio Devices with the Built-in Speakers (2 [AUX IN] jacks)
The stereo outputs from another instrument can be connected to these jacks, allowing the sound of an external instrument to be reproduced via the instruments speakers. Connect the output jacks (LINE OUT etc.) of an external synthesizer or the tone generator module and the instruments AUX IN [L/L+R]/[R] jacks using appropriate audio cables.
