Ever think there’s a reason why Nakamichi has dropped so much over the last 2 months? Because people are returning them left and right and the people who claim they are the best are just fanboys that can’t stand when people hate it. Sonos quality sound and the Sony Quads are better in every way. If ...

I would agree that the newer mk2 would be better and it’s got tons of power and to be honest I’m sick of recommending the Samsung just because of its price. I think they sound okay and although I’ve never heard the 990F, I’ve heard the 990D and the bass was fairly strong but boomy and the sound qual...

No manufacturer when it comes to Soundbars, except Sonos I believe lets you buy a subwoofer alone and integrate it with any type of Soundbar you may have being new or old. I used to have a Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2.4 eARC. And the two 10 Inch subwoofers were basically the same as the older ones ...

I’ll get downvoted for saying this but it’s okay, but nothing special. That’s not to say it’s not a great Soundbar, but I paid more for the Sony Quads and Sonos Arc Ultra with era300s for that particular reason. I did find the Sammy’s Atmos better than the $4,000 Nakamichi Dragon which continues to ...

Sony Quads got the best votes from NET or never enough tech on YouTube who was actually the biggest fan of the dragon but in a head to head of the 5 best systems of 2025 the Quads came in first, Arc ultra 2, and Dragon third. Unless he thinks the Shockwafe is better than the dragon? He was supposed ...

My Nakamichi shockwafe looks like something made by Fisher Price. And I haven’t been happy with the center channel dialog clarity

I had the dragon over a year ago with the 8” subs and I was coming from a 5.1 setup with Polk Reserve R200 bookshelves up front and R100s for the back, a Polk R300 center channel and a SVS PB-3000 sub with no Dolby atmos and I got it all used from a good friend for $1750 plus another $950 for a deno...

It’s possible that it’s better, but no way it’s quite a bit better. I’m still waiting for NET to do his version of Shockwafe VS Quads. He crowned the Quads over the dragon and that was with the dragons 2. 12” $1299 subs at the time which are decent subs but way overpriced. The problem with Nakamichi...

I also have a Nakamichi shockwafe wireless 11.2.6 and after having that system the sub in the 990f was very underwhelming but the 990D is adequate especially for action movies with explosions and gun shots. I want to feel that stuff. The 990f was underwhelming after experiencing sound systems with g...

I'm having this issue. Sony TV (X950G) with a Nakamichi soundbar (Shockwafe Elite 7.2.4 SSE-series) connected via ARC (not eARC). If the 3D is connected I will get 10-seconds of sound from my soundbar and then nothing unless I turn the soundbar off and my TV reverts to it's internal speakers. Switch...
