Customer Ratings & Reviews

Had a Bose Lifestyle and that system couldn't touch this for less than half the price. Setup was easy and I couldn't be happier.

Great Product, quality and sound, good product so far

Good item really nice to have sounds great easy to display

This is a great sound system and it is very easy to operate. I really do enjoy it

Best surround sound i have ever purchased! Works very well in an open floor layout.

Speaker was amazing for the price paid . Topnotch .

Very easy to setup. We had to replace our other sound system because it died. Decided to stay with same brand.

Enjoying it More and More Each Day. Crisp Precise Sound!

Great System, really effective in a large room. Wish the rear/surround is wireless..

Great surround sound and the bass is incredible with 2 10" subs. Grest product and love it.

Purchased this based on past reviews for our spare bedroom that we turned into an office/media room. As soon as we installed it and played it for the first time it sounded like the music was playing out of a tin can. That was through blue tooth. Once we hooked up our Apple TV and played a movie and music through the pole tv it got a little better but then the sound kept cutting out. It was intermittent and for no reason. Checked all cables and everything was hooked up correct. After researching it we found out there is a known issue with having to jump through hoops to reset it, unplug this for 5 mins, go into 20+ setting on both the TV and Apple TV to try and get the sound bar to not cut out. This was through EARC which is the best sound quality. After spending 5 hours of this I packaged it back up and it went back to the store. We got the Sonos Arc Ultra with sub and rears instead which was user friendly, no crazy settings, and the sound quality was 5000% better than the Shockwave. So weird because the Shockwaves 2 10s seemed to struggle when on the Sonos a single box with two 6x9s put out way clearer and stronger base. I would never recommend this sound bar system to anyone.

Very nice and perfect for my room size 15’x15’. Good thing is no receiver required and wireless.

It has Excellent sound, so much more than I expected.

Soundbar and surround speakers are ok, very loud. Both subwoofers rattle and underpowered for 300 watts each, my 10 inch 300 watt JBL single subwoofer is better. Im returning this.

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All I can say is hands down the best sound system I have ever owned!!

the Nakamichi SHOCKWAFE ULTRA 9.2 SSE MAX stands as an impressive sound system delivering an immersive audio experience. Boasting a 9.2-channel setup with dual subwoofers, this soundbar system is designed to bring cinema-quality sound into your living room. The standout feature of the SHOCKWAFE ULTRA 9.2 SSE MAX is its Spatial Surround Elevation (SSE) technology, which aims to create a three-dimensional audio experience. With multiple speakers placed throughout the room, it achieves a sense of depth and directionality, enhancing the realism of sound effects and positional audio in movies, shows, and games. The inclusion of two subwoofers significantly enhances the system's bass response, adding depth and richness to low-frequency sounds, making action scenes and music more dynamic and powerful. In terms of connectivity, it offers multiple options, including HDMI ARC/eARC, Bluetooth, and optical inputs, ensuring compatibility with various devices. The system also supports 4K HDR passthrough, enabling seamless integration with modern home entertainment setups. Setup and installation can be straightforward due to its user-friendly interface and included mounting hardware. The system comes with a remote control for convenient adjustments and offers compatibility with some virtual assistants for voice control. However, while the Nakamichi SHOCKWAFE ULTRA 9.2 SSE MAX delivers an impressive audio experience, it might not be suitable for smaller spaces due to its size and the need for multiple speakers placement to achieve its full potential. Additionally, as with many high-end sound systems, the price point might be a consideration for some buyers. Overall, if you're seeking a home theater experience that brings a cinematic feel to your space, with powerful bass and immersive surround sound, the Nakamichi SHOCKWAFE ULTRA 9.2 SSE MAX could be an excellent choice, especially for larger rooms where its spatial audio capabilities can truly shine.

Sketchy company that plays pricing games and ships things so it can easily be stolen. Not to mention Best Buy themselves do NOT protect you against anything that happens with a “marketplace” order. Foreign company that only responds to inquiries overnight— look elsewhere — I’ll be returning this ASAP a month after ordering and finally receiving it… and then noticing the price is cheaper than when I bought it… again— don’t buy from BB marketplace, you’ll get screwed (even with their membership)

While this system was in my price range, the two 10 inch subwoofers don’t seem to produce the depth and richness I had hope for. It’s an average performing sound system, easy to set up, and adequate for most home uses.

This is an awesome speaker. I live the sound either music or when we use it on movies.
