Our Verdict

Yamaha YAS-209

LG SN6Y

The Yamaha YAS-209 is a better overall soundbar setup than the LG SN6Y, even though it has fewer channels. The 2.1 Yamaha has a much more neutral, balanced, default sound profile. Although the 3.1 LG has a discreet center channel for clearer dialogue, its subwoofer doesn't rumble very much, making it less versatile for movies and music. The Yamaha can also play music wirelessly over a Wi-Fi connection, unlike the LG, which is limited to Bluetooth wireless playback.
