Beam position can be adjusted over a wide area by using the remote control or the dedicated app, allowing many people to enjoy the powerful, expansive sound.

The SRT-1500’s large capacity cabinet is built using MDF materials ideal for producing good quality sound, with a central array of eight beam speakers that create Yamaha’s original Digital Sound Projector sound beams.
