I don't have believe you can swap out the subwoofer as it outputs some mid range frequencies, it's not 100% a true sub. Ideally you want the sub at the front of the room near the soundbar. You can run two subs, I did it for a while, I had a splitter on the subwoofer cable so a feed went to the yamaha, then another feed to the subwoofer behind the sofa.Just got one from Peter Tyson, but I have a question about the sub woofer...or rather replacing it.
I have a spare Tannoy HTS sub that I can use instead. Which is objectively better?
The Tanoy is rated at 100W with 29Hz-200Hz response. (200mm/8" cone)
The soundbar's is rated at 75W (140mm/5.5" cone) - couldn't find any info on frequency response.
Should I bother swapping the sub or leave it as is..?

Is this still the case? Is this a concern or does the fact that in can do HDR10, DV and HLG make this a non-issue?No, the YSP2700 doesn't currently support HDR10+ passthrough.
I believe it's still the case. Connect your player to TV and route HDMI audio seperately to the YSP to ensure you get HDR10+ displayed.Is this still the case? Is this a concern or does the fact that in can do HDR10, DV and HLG make this a non-issue?
I currently have a YSP-2500 and I am considering upgrading to the YSP-2700 purely for the HDR passthrough.
Thanks, I was hoping to avoid having to make a double cable run. But I may well have to take that approach. I am considering a Panasonic TV which supports both formats.I believe it's still the case.

It's an extra cable, but something you can forget about when done. In comparison DV is better supported, though more titles recently cater for both formats.Thanks, I was hoping to avoid having to make a double cable run. But I may well have to take that approach.

I currently have an Apple TV 4K which, as you said, is DV and a Sony UBP-X500 which is HDR10 only (so both are supported by the YSP-2700). However, I am considering a Panasonic DP-UB450 which is both DV and HDR10+. Unfortunately I have read about sync issues when splitting the signal.So as your setup supports DV you could disregard HDR10+ and just settle for the single DV format if you like. Personally, if my setup supported both formats then I'd just run the extra HDMI cable to get everything checked off.
I've been using the UB420 and YSP2700 for a year and not encountered any sync issues thus far.I currently have an Apple TV 4K which, as you said, is DV and a Sony UBP-X500 which is HDR10 only (so both are supported by the YSP-2700).

I have opened a support case with Yamaha asking is they can investigate adding HDR10+ pass-through support. Worth a punt.
