  • 11/5 Recent Purchase 9.2.4
Style: Ultra 9.2 DTS-X/Atmos
So this is my first review of any product ever. Let me start by saying that if you are hesitant to buy this system because maybe you have never heard of this brand, or because of the price let me stop you right there; it really is worth every penny spent on it. The system I got came fully updated with Atmos and DTS:X so no need to go through trying to download the update like I did, it is ready to go already. I initially tried the Samsung Q90R to try out atmos and was less than impressed, and it was really glitchy. So after hours of research, (I never buy anything on a whim), I decided that because I am in an apartment I would try this rather than go full surround sound. This thing had a lot of positive reviews and I can confirm that they are justified. I will address the 2 main negative reviews and get those out of the way. The first one is that it came in not working. Mine came in working fine, the only glitch it had that was that my ATT modem was too close to one of the subs interfering with the signals, I simply put it on top of the sub and that fixed it right away and I have not had a single issue since. To be honest its not just Nakamichi, but every electronic product you can think of has some systems that come defective, no matter if its samsung, apple, or lg. it happens, so get over it, send it back and get a new one. The second criticism I read was that the bass was inadequate for this system and to that I call BS. Im not sure if some people have to give criticism in their reviews but the bass is overwhelming if nothing else. Now to the positive. Bass, "OMG" that's the only way to describe it. For an apartment its way too much, but there are so many adjustments and you can make to the bass and treble that can balance it out. But to say the bass isn't that great like some reviews say is just silly. Its almost like some people need something to complain about to make it sound like a "critical review," but pay no attention to those reviews, the bass is spectacular. Setup takes about an hour or so, but once its set up control is easy. I have an Apple TV 4k, PS4 Pro, and Sony X700 bluray player attached to it, and I have the sound bar plugged in using eArc to an LG Nano9 65 inch TV. I have 2 satellite speakers up by the TV and 2 near my couch which adds great surround sound effect. So far on apple tv i have watch John Wick, Interstellar (that scene with the ocean world is really intense), and Batman Begins. John Wick is done in Dolby Atmos, which sounds amazing and I have been hearing sounds I have never heard in surround sound. But even Interstellar and Batman Begins being in Dolby 5.1 sound great. The sound bar has amazing clarity, especially if your willing to take the time to adjust it to settings you will like. I listen to apple music a lot, heavy bass for hip hop, then take down to more of a clarity setting for 80s rock and it handles both really well. When I watch scrubs (my favorite show), it offers a ton clarity as well. In my personal opinion there is only two drawback and one is minor, the other is a good problem to have. The first is the satellite speakers can be a little lite on sound, which is okay because you will still know they are there, especially in atmos movies, but that is just not enough to take a star away. The second is of course the bass, its not that it is bad, its too good for an apartment so I have yet to fully experiment with it which sucks. So if your gonna get it for an apartment like me that may be a little bit of a let down unless you don't care about your neighbors lol. Overall this is a great system, the best on the market for "sound bars" if you can call it that. To be honest its really more of a home theater in a box than anything else. It pairs so nicely with the Apple TV 4k which offer by far the largest streaming library of Dolby Atmos/Vision Movies. The only reason I get a 4K bluray player is that I ordered the 4K special edition marvel movies that all now have atmos (which comes in next week!). But honestly everything else can be watch on Apple TV, which if your like me and you love movies than the combination is of the Nakamichi 9.2.4 and the Apple TV 4k should set you up for years to come. Don't hesitate to get this system, its well worth it I promise. ... show more

  • Nakamichi Shockwafe Elite 7.2.4Ch review (About as good as you can get for a consumer sound bar)
If you want anything better than this, don't get a sound bar. Who is this for? - Movie watchers who enjoy being "enveloped" in the movie at close to theater level loudness, - Mixed content consumers (Youtube, hulu etc.) - Casual music listeners - Gamers who want explosions to rattle them Who is this not for: - Anyone who lives in an apartment (Unless you're in VERY good with the neighbors) - Audio purists, Serious music listeners Speaker System reviews are highly subjective and audio listening experience varies drastically on several factors including environment ( a room and all objects in the room have resonate and reflective frequencies just like different materials reflect different colors of light), sound signature preferences and source material. I'm just stating my personal opinion and experience. Overall Rating A- ( For the purpose ) Sub-woofers: Overall rating: B+ Sub-bass 0-50hz: C ( Usually low rumbling or just shaking, often not even audible, thuds, explosion aftershock ) Bass: A+ (Drum beats, explosion rattle ) Mid Bass: C ( Low end of male vocals usually, deep non bass instruments) Let's start off with bass first since most people looking to buy this product probably want to know about this most (especially with the two sub-woofers). I purposely chose the dual 8 inch sub model because I thought that it would help round off the listening experience versus the 10inch model and it's less expensive as a bonus. Most sound bars suffer from mid bass drop off due to the driver size in the sound bar. The sound bars typically have less than 4" drivers, while Mid bass drivers sound best around 5.5" to 6.5". To me there is a "Golden sound" to speaker systems and it does involve a significant amount of mid bass. This is the type of sound signature that really shines in tracks like 1979 by the smashing pumpkins and Everlong by Foo Fighers. While the sub drivers to kind of help with the mid bass issue, it's not a cure-all, it can cause a confusing sound stage having part of the vocals come from one area and the rest from another. Mid bass is tricky to get perfect. Listening on quality studio or standing floor speakers to the tracks "Lucille" by Kenny Rogers or the Contrabass saxophone in "Have a Lucky Day" or "Cure for Pain" by Morphine is not even comparable to the synthesized sub bass on these speakers. What I'm trying to say is real mid-bass is magical when properly balanced (unbalanced makes vocals sound muddy). These subs are great for movie watchers and upbeat music. The subs pack good a punch, you can get a slight back massage or move medium size items in the room, but it's not earth shattering/head rattling like high powered 15/12 inch subs that makes it seem like the apocalypse. I would say these are perfectly suited for drum kick bass and explosions. For being ported, these subs do a good job of staying tonal and agile but there is noticeable "port hum" which caused by the resonate frequency and size of box port. It's not specific to this speaker system, all ported boxes suffer from this flaw. Although because it does such a great job of still being tonal I don't ding it any points and the engineers made the right choice because ported boxes generally output at-least 1.5x more sound than sealed boxes but at the expense of the port distortion. You literally get more "bang" for your buck with a ported sub-woofer. With the 8" sub woofer there is no sub-bass unfortunately. One track I used to test this was "Ritz107" by Fischerspooner. At 3:20ish the whole room should be shaking but I could tell the low end cutoff was set high for these subs (Possible around 25-35hz) as those frequencies were completely missing. That's not surprising considering they're just 8" woofers on a digital crossover but a little disappointing. At first I was a little worried about having two sub-woofers due to phase interference but it wasn't an issue. If anyone has issues try changing the angle of the sub or move it a few feet and you're good. Side speakers: A I'm glad that these speakers are beefier than most side speakers and think they sound great. Positioning can be tricky as with any surround speaker Remote: A High quality back lit remote with lots of features and memorization. Vocal tonal balance and fidelity: B I want to give an "A" but due to the lack of mid bass which haunts most sound bars I cannot, However the vocals are extremely well balanced for this setup. You'll be able to crank up the volume on this sound system without the fear of sharp vowel sounds from "A"s and "E"s and enjoy listening even more at high volumes rather than shreaking. I appreciate the engineers choice in acoustic cone and cabinet material as well as digital processing which are the primary reason for this balance. This is why I say it's great for multi content consumption because its subdued enough to where it's not going to annoy your ears or cause fatigue. But they are slightly too subdued for my taste. My favorite tweeter dome material has to be silk, but these sound more like a Mylar or composite plastic (haven't checked what they are). If they are silk dome then the "E"s and "S" are extremely subdued and something is wrong. Frequency Response, Power curve: A Frequency response is a tricky question. A power curve is the amplification level map per frequency for a given volume setting. Humans don't perceive audio linearly, this is why Fletcher Munson curves exist that are supposed to map perceived loudness to frequency and SPL. Also lower frequencies take exponentially more power to produce the same perceived loudness as higher frequencies. These speakers have a great power curve for average listeners and starts to really fill room out after 30. If you're listening below 30 and want a fuller sound, the "stereo" and "night" modes should help out Sound Processing, Sound Stage: A- Good amount of options for sound buffs, could be tricky for noobs but the simple "Game", "Movie" buttons help out a lot. It's good that there's an option to disable sound processing altogether. The noise floor is almost non-existent compared to other speaker systems. I feel like that to achieve such a low noise floor there must have been some sound processing algorithm applied that also impedes vocal fidelity as a consequence. That's just my hunch. Sound stage is great for movies and good for music. During movies my wife was looking around when bullets flew by and when listening to songs it sound like you're in a medium size cafe about 15 feet from a 30 foot wide stage. How I would improve this product: Increase the surface area on the center drivers to compensate for the driver size and help fill the mid bass gap, then remove the 8" sub line and only sell 10" subs because the 8" frequency range has too much crossover with low end vocals which convolutes the sound stage. Possibly add a sealed sub alternative option. I graded my listening experience for a few songs: "Heart of Gold" - Neil Young : B "Under the Milky Way Tonight" - The Church : A "The Killing Moon" - Echo and the Bunnymen : B (Stereo mode, bass @ 2) "Lifes Been Good" - Joe Walsh : B "Piano Man" - Billy Joel : B "Rocket Man" - Elton John : A+ "Hotel California" The Eagles A "Safety Dance" - Men Without Hats : B- "Walk Like an Egyptian" - The Bangles : C The biggest drawback for music is the port hum (not noticeable for people who don't know to listen for it) due to the ported design, but it's better for movies. Hopefully this review helps someone! ... show more
