Neither Yamaha ATS-1030 nor Yamaha ATS-1070 were recommended by experts this month

On 8 Jan 2025 (11 months ago) we went through 93 Sound Bar expert endorsements , however neither Yamaha ATS-1030 nor Yamaha ATS-1070 were included in any of those recommendations. Since neither Sound Bar received a single endorsement, as far as expert recommendations go, it's technically a tie. We do, however, recommend taking a look at Sonos Arc Ultra or other critically acclaimed Sound Bars of this month.

For reference, Sonos Arc Ultra received 6 endorsements this month, from TechRadar (24 Dec 2024), Tom's Guide (22 Nov 2024) PCMag (25 Nov 2024) and 3 others.
