Yamaha True X90A Soundbar System

Beam Speaker Technology, Redefined

Over twenty years ago, Yamaha re-invented home theatre with the YSP-1 soundbar, and have been refining beam technology ever since. In this latest model, Yamaha’s original YDA-141 high-performance amplifier with twelve ultra-precise DSP-controlled beam speakers mounted on the top (six on each side) create unique height channels with ceiling reflections. With realistic Dolby Atmos® playback, it delivers an amazing sound field that surpasses conventional soundbars.

Not a Successor, but an Innovator

True X Surround 90A is a system that brings new innovations to home cinema. With a slim-bodied soundbar just 71 mm tall, it features multiple, meticulously selected speaker units, encased in a sturdy, highly rigid cabinet supported by large resin legs with a substantial contact area – exceptionally solid build quality for an audio device. In addition, combining a subwoofer boasting new Symmetrical Flare Port® technology with two fully wireless rear speakers featuring built-in battery power provides unprecedented flexibility and a profoundly authentic cinematic experience.

Elegantly Shaped, Perfectly Tuned

The custom eye-shaped oval speakers are key to creating a slim soundbar with distortion-free, immersive surround sound. These speakers deliver rich midrange tones and powerful volume with fewer units, ensuring a clear, natural sound field without acoustic interference. By optimising the speaker’s structure and magnetic circuitry, Yamaha overcame challenges like cone strength and high-frequency clarity, resulting in distortion-free, immersive sound. The outcome is a soundbar that offers a sleek design and powerful, balanced sound for an exceptional listening experience.

Premium Components, Ultimate Performance

Surround:AI™ technology employs cutting-edge audio processing performance. Thanks to Qualcomm® QCS407 64-bit SoC (System-on-a chip), also used in Yamaha’s flagship Aventage Series AV receivers, Yamaha’s unique surround sound feature automatically generates ideal sound field effect depending on the movie scene. Enjoy your favourite content with sound as if a team of Yamaha professional sound engineers were fine-tuning audio for each scene.

Feel the Depth, Hear the Power

The system’s subwoofer employs Symmetrical Flare Port® technology, newly developed through meticulous Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements – delivering powerful, deeply resonant bass. The symmetrical horizontal/vertical port structure ensures extremely smooth release of the strong air flow generated during bass reproduction. As a result, port noise has been reduced by 20 dB compared to conventional models, enabling pure bass reproduction that is both powerful and deep.

Where True Sound comes to Life

With a history spanning over 130 years and being one of the world’s largest manufacturers of musical instruments, Yamaha fully understands the very moment of sound creation and continues to be relied upon by world-famous artists for its audio expertise and live mixing consoles. In addition, Yamaha maintain first-class research and development capabilities in all fields related to sound and music, and have brought their long experience and extensive knowledge to sound creation in the True X Surround 90A.

Yamaha MusicCast

The True X Surround 90A is equipped with Yamaha’s original MusicCast network system. Moreover, it is compatible with a variety of streaming services such as Amazon Music HD and Spotify, letting you fully enjoy exceptionally high-quality sound unique to today’s high-resolution and lossless sound sources, with complete fidelity. You can also use it to stream Apple Music with Airplay 2. And the MusicCast system lets you easily listen to music anywhere in your home by linking various MusicCast devices with just one app on your smart device.

State-Of-The Art Audio Processing – AURO-3D®

True X Surround 90A is not only amazing for movies, but also music and live concert videos. As the world’s first AURO-3D® soundbar, it takes full advantage of the height beams and creates a sense of realism as if you were actually experiencing a live performance in a concert hall. In addition, with great effect thanks to AURO-3D® Auro-Matic upmixer function, stereo video content is upmixed into an exceptional three-dimensional sound field.

Advanced App Control

The height beam angles and volume levels can be easily adjusted using the dedicated MusicCast app, which also provides basic control of the soundbar.

Flexible Music Playback

The True X Rear Speaker features built-in battery power, making it perfect for a completely wireless rear speaker, and can double as a Bluetooth® speaker with a simple touch of a button. Take it anywhere you like and enjoy all the music on your smartphone with high sound quality.

Wall Hanging

Simply remove the legs from the centre unit, and it can be easily wall-mounted using the included metal fittings. Just 76 mm in height and 143 mm in depth, it does not disturb the interior of the room even when hung on the wall.

Clear Voice & Bass Extension

The unique and switchable Clear Voice feature makes it easier to hear and understand voices and dialogue. Bass Extension also adds body and depth to the bass while keeping the mids and highs clean, making movies even more immersive.

Easy Connectivity

Compatible with eARC and CEC, the system can be connected to the TV with a single HDMI cable, while power on/off and volume can be controlled with your TV remote.
