  • 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 ultra 9.2 or nothing!
*** Nov 16, 2018 update *** I have been having a great experience with this system since early June 2018 when I purchased it on amazon. This is in spite of the remote control issues that everyone has mentioned. Since I use a logitech harmony ultimate, this is not an issue for me, but definitely something that Nakamichi must work on. The biggest reason I am writing this today, is the news I saw just today morning about Nakamichi supporting dolby atmos & vision via firmware update that will be available next month on the shockwafe 9.2 system 2018 model!!! They are calling is SSE (spatial surround elevation) technology. There have been many including me that were constantly giving feedback atmos & vision support to them... this once again goes on to show Nakamichi is indeed listening to customer feedback & their overall wonderful customer support!!! Go Nakamichi.... I can't wait for SSE firmware release to test it out to feel how much of a difference this will make to my June 2018 model to extend it to "9.2.4" atmos & vision compatible system. Thank you Nakamichi! [btw, I didn't see 9.2 shockwafe listed yet on dolby's website under atmos soundbar category... assuming it will go up there soon after Nakamichi's SSE firmware official release next month?] ******************************* First impressions after using it for couple days (more detailed review to follow soon after I test it more esp. music): This IS the product I have been looking for - a hands-down, clear winner, worth every penny considering not just the no. of speakers/drivers, dual subs, but more importantly the well-balanced performance - audiophile grade!. So far I have tested this "beast" in the following set-up: Nakamichi surrounds in dipole config coz of space limitations in my room - btw, they came with surrounds joined together out of the box for dipole, felt like Nakamichi knew I was going to use it in that config (ha ha ha!), Samsung UN65KS8000F 65" 4K TV, Sony UBP-X800 4K player, Xfinity 4K box, PS4, media streamers (Roku 4K, Amazon fire TV), 4K titles - Battleship - DTS-X, Atomic Blonde - DTS-X, Blade Runner 2049 - Atmos; 1080p titles: Master and Commander - The Far Side of the World - DTS HD-MA, Knight and Day - DTS HD-MA. Summary: PROS: Bottom-line: I made the right decision to replace the bose ST300 with this "beast" - Nakamichi is a clear winner without a doubt, hands-down! Audio performance:- excellent theater-type sound stage, superb sound clarity, crispness & channel separation; well-balanced & deep bass (dual subs are well sync'd)... I am really amazed by its channel separation & sound clarity capabilites. Having used the bose ST300 for over 6 months now, I thought that's the best one could get from a soundbar... beware Bose - you have lots to catch up on! Unboxing & set-up: Solid packaging... set-up was straight-forward & simple (read ahead/plan/follow the steps); I also did firmware update coz the system came with an older version - very simple & quick (I initially thought it might be complicated, but was pleasantly surprised here too!) CONS (mostly minor but, Nakamichi, pls listen...am fairly sure you are): Remote: keys are small, backlight is not sufficiently bright for me to read all the keys in dark environment; some keys are not back-lit up anyways; importantly, as others have said, it is a challenge to point the remote at the soundbar for commands to work. Soundbar display menu: not good at all - very cryptic, given only a few characters available & importantly, very difficult to read what's being shown unless I am up close. Nakamichi, don't cut corners here - incorporate better resolution display (not the very poor dot-matrix type you have now) incl. audio format logo to be displayed as it would be a nice touch... and, more importantly, as others have suggested, have the set up screen menu displayed on TV over hdmi! Audio: It takes about 9 to 10 seconds of "deafening silence" before sound comes on esp. when I switch sources or pause & play movie scenes. Not sure why... also, seems to fall back to ARC most of the time, which means I have to hit the hdmi-2 (or -3 or -4 as the case may be) again & again Inter-operability over CEC: Running into challenges currently; Nakamichi does not switch to the correct hdmi port & play sound based on source I select. I have followed instructions outlined in the manual/on-line resources, etc. My current set-up: Nakamichi & TV connected over hdmi - arc; audio only hdmi port from Sony X800 4k player connected to hdmi-2 on Nakamichi & video/audio hdmi port connected to TV & Sony 4K player config settings according to steps outlined by Nakamichi; xfinity 4k box & amazon fire tv box connected to TV over hdmi. Roku 4k box & PS4 connected over hdmi to Nakamchi's hdmi ports 3 & 4. Kodi 17.6 krypton running on fire tv (I suppose this is not a Nakamichi problem): "Audio output device" greyed out & therefore not able to select Nakamichi (all other Kodi system settings are in line with what I could find online - not sure if Kodi has withdrawn this feature in v17.6) Dolby Atmos, True-HD & Vision support: Lacks all these currently. My feedback is this: given it's increasing popularity & adoption (iTunes has lots of content that supports DV already & increasing further, and Apple have announced that ATV 4K will support Atmos this fall with tvOS 12 release!!! And TV brands like LG, Sony, Vizio, etc have it already & apps like Vudu, Netflix (in a limited way) etc, support it! From Atmos standpoint, I do understand that a pair upfiring speakers in the soundbar is more of marketing than true experience & requires hardware changes, but Nakamichi could consider coming out with optional Atmos-enabled in-ceiling speakers to further complement shockwafe 7.2/9.2 systems in a 7.2.2 or 9.2.2 (*.*.4 might be two too many!!!). On the other hand, I believe dolby vision is a firmware implementation and so Nakamichi must be able to quickly implement support in a near-future firmware release in a such a way that DV signal is passed thru to TV without compromise. Till such time, only workaround is to connect 4k player like Sony X800 that supports DV directly to TV & use the second audio-only port to Nakamichi over another hdmi.... but what if I have more than one source that supports DV & I have more such sources to connect than my TV's hdmi ports (in which case, I will have to use hdmi ports on Nakamichi & I don't want to invest in a separate hdmi switcher)... why no Dolby True-HD? Licensing cost issue? Lossless format is always better... but if 4k players & streamers can bit-stream out this format to Nakamichi, then fine, otherwise, hmmm... I got to check :-) Overall BEST product (for the price-point & boy, the VALUE), but I guess to make it TRULY GREAT, Nakamichi should fix the CONS soon! Thank you Nakamichi! ... show more
