The Yamaha Piano Craft E-410 is the smaller brother of the E-810 and offers at the same good quality of workmanship rather than the DVD section for Video CD drive on. But when it comes to music makes the little brother before something bigger and buys him with even more transparency and dynamics from the rank. In contrast, the E-810 sounds a bit thin. Anyone looking for a compact system with a very good sound and no DVD interface needed is served here again better. Except for the players both systems are identical, both have a subwoofer output, an iPod connection and an above-average radio part. Compared to compact systems of other providers the PianoCraft sets also from its competitors. Even the noble compact system from Denon for 1200 comes sonically not match the PianoCraft. Only about the format SACD, which the Denon can play facility also, both systems can reasonably compete with each other. Who plays with the idea to buy the Tivoli Music System Venezia for 1000, should also look at whether it can not open spaces for Yamaha the place, the difference in sound is here already drastically.
Who also still on the second step to other, higher-quality speakers invested (eg Dynaudio shelf speakers or Creaktiv image speaker) falls at the latest from the faith. The "little one" plays like a big.
Actually, the PianoCraft already so "unique" that it belongs to the portfolio of manufactum. Quality for little money, rare! But here you will find it.
