I suffer from moderate hearing loss in both ears with the affected frequencies being that of vocals on TV, it affects most programmes specifically movies,

Does anyone have any first hand experience of this feature on the Yamaha soundbars? I'm considering a soundbar for the new lounge and leaning towards the Yamaha YSP2500 because of this feature and getting good reviews all round

The other option is a Kef V300 twin speaker setup however I'm not sure if the sound is customisable enough to suite?

Any experience of either would be much appreciated

Cheers

Not the two units you mention but I joined a thread on here a week or so ago where various options were discussed.
scroll back a page or two - some useful info there.
I'm considering a Sony HT-XT3, was looking into Canton stuff but they have limited inputs

Not entirely the same but my Yamaha AV receiver has dialogue enhancing features. My old man who has lost a lot of hearing says it is really good with it on. Funny enough we tried it over the weekend.

So much so I've bought him a Yamaha receiver for Christmas, for his house.

I have the YSP 1400 which i think is the one below the one you are looking at, i find it does help a little but based on mine i am not sure it's a massive difference

Your not based in the north east are you? I'd love a listen!
