- Setup was very easy; it's connected to my TV via HDMI ARC
- Sub-woofer connected wirelessly without any issues.
- Built in Alexa works well. The only complain I have is how loud it is sometimes, since it doesn't have a separate volume control for Alexa (I wish it did). If you listened to some music at a high volume and then asked Alexa a question, she'd take over the house
- The remote is pretty simple, but it has all the buttons that you'll need to change the source, sound settings, main volume and sub-woofer volume.
- The app gives you the same functionality of the remote with nice visuals (it spins the artwork of the music you're playing via Alexa like a vinyl). The issue I have with the app is the need to tap on multiple buttons to get to a screen to change sound settings. The main screen only has the volume slider.
- The sound is great so far. I placed the sub-woofer behind the couch and it gives a nice sound and vibration effect. It's pretty boomy.
- Sometimes, after pausing a movie and coming back to it about 3-5 minutes later, the sound switches to the TV speakers. Turning the soundbar off and on again fixes the issue, but it's annoying. Nothing has changed in the settings of the TV or the soundbar that could explain this, so I'm keeping an eye on it.
- There's no onscreen display to visualize button presses. The lights on the unit are designed to indicate volume level when the button is pressed, but it's on top of the unit and pretty useless since you can't see it from across the room
- In case you're wondering, it doesn't come with an HDMI cable, but it includes an optical cable.

ATS-2090 does not come up on the default sound bars page on the Yamaha website here: https://usa.yamaha.com/products/a...index.html
But if you search for 2090, there is a product page for ATS-2090 that is very similar to the YAS-209, here: https://usa.yamaha.com/products/a...index.html
Best Buy has the YAS-209BL, but no 2090 or (209 without the BL) here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/yama...Id=63558
