Is the Yamaha yas-109 sound bar worth the money?

The YAS-109 is a great option if you have a limited budget, smaller room, and want the excellent functionality that comes with Alexa built-in. If you just bought a new TV and are looking for a way to better enjoy your favorite films and shows, the YAS-109 is well worth the cost. Is there a better alternative?

Is the yas-109 sound bar good for Alexa?

One complaint — and something we first noticed on the larger YAS-209 bar — is that you can’t adjust the volume of Alexa independently from the bar, so she can shout at you a bit when you’re listening to quieter content. As long as you’ve got an HDMI cable (this soundbar doesn’t come with one) and a phone, setting up the YAS-109 is a breeze.
