    Best sound bar for it's price point by far!

    I bought this sound bar direct from the manufacturer but I decided to leave a review here because I thought it was absolutely wonderful for the price. The quality was on par if not better than my old 5.1 Boston Acoustic setup with Denon receiver.

    Best Atmos system without breaking the bank!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I upgraded from a Sonos Beam with 2 Play One's for the rear speakers and subwoofer. All I can say is that the Nakamichi 9.2.4 is simply amazing. I can handle formats (Sonos only played well with Dolby Digital 5.1) and does so with a theater like experience. I find myself re-watching movies that I just watched recently to experience the sound again. The two subs crank out more than enough low end. Atmos enabled movies are the most fun to watch and Atmos music from Tidal is an experience. This is the best Atmos enable sound system you can get without breaking the bank....highly recommend!

    I have always liked Nakamichi gear and finally last Christmas I was able to buy something from them. What I didn't expect was the level of performance I got from this product. It literally brought the theatre sound experience into my home. I think I need to buy a bigger TV because my 65" is dwarfed by the sound I "feel" from this product!! Absolutely amazing sound!!!

    The Nakamichi shockwafe ultra is an all in one spatial sound solution with incredible response and finesse that allows the user a great control over all aspects of the home theatre sound. The build quality is excellent and the audio quality from the speakers is outstanding, what I have come to expect from the Nakamichi brand over the years. Do not hesitate in this purchase as you will completely satisfied in every way and aspect of the experience, the icing on the cake is there customer services, any questions you may have or instructions to specifically Taylor the setting to that of your tv and Blu-ray player will be responded to alarmingly fast.

    You will love it

    I love it. Just plug and play. The 4 satellite speakers do have to be wired to their respective woofer. The woofers are Bluetooth to the sound bar. The woofers connected 1st time and every time automatically. Having the woofers power the other speakers give excellent quality and no battery replacement. This thing is perfect for movie night. Comes with all cables including HDMI and optic cables. I highly recommend!!!

    Pleasantly surprised on how much of a punch this this system packs. Powerful sound, big bass response, and relatively easy to setup. If you’re thinking about a sound bar, stop right here and pick this one up you won’t be disappointed.

    This thing has depth. Call Of Duty grenades explode underneath you, to the left, to the right. Truly amazing how the sound and the bass get moved around the room.

    Dual subwoofers is the way to go

    Had a Samsung QR90 soundbar and read tons of good reviews about the Nakamichi. Really wanted the dual subs, did not disappoint, it is loud and rattles the walls. Probably going to sell my Samsung on Ebay.

    Best soundbar hands down

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I did a ton of research. Went to numerous stores and came up empty . I decided to take a chance on the Nakamichi - Shockwafe 9.2.4 because of the rave reviews. In my opinion it is the best sounding soundbar I have heard to date. It sounds better than most home theater setups for a fraction of the price. I would definitely recommend and would buy again!!

    Best Sound Bar hands down. Crazy subwoofers!

    By far the best sound bar on the market. That Nakamichi name we all know and love will not let you down! This system i bought for my man room. It was a pretty small room but they have options for everyone with this system. It was AMAZING in that little room. Later... I recently moved and my room now is prob 2.5 times the size. I was worried the system might now keep up.. hahaha! Wrong! This system has sooo many options you can't lose! Last thing. If you appreciate customer service. I give them a 12 out of 10 :)

    more base by upgrading the subs to 15"

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have had many sound bars including samsung and lg but nothing compares nakamichi-shockwafe 9.2.4-chanel with the dual-10" subs it gives you a hole lot of base and the 1000w really cranks it up now I am waiting for them to upgrade the subs to a 15" and double to a 2000w hopefully they read this and take it under consideration of my suggestions but I am fully satisfied with it regardless of any upgrades but I would be the first in line if they did you just cant beat this brand, again I am very satisfied and happy I got rid of the other brands I had. Thanks to nakamichi-shockwafe
