With a height of only 10.7 cm (4-1/4”), the YAS-101 can be easily positioned in front of a TV so it straddles the TV stand. With the stand removed, the height can be adjusted. Because both speakers and subwoofers are built in, it fits more easily into available space than separate components. 10.7 cm (4-1/4”)
