This sound system delivers impressively loud and crystal-clear audio with zero distortion, even at high volumes. Whether you're watching action-packed movies or listening to music or gaming, the clarity and depth of the sound make for an immersive experience. Compared to a traditional receiver-based system I really appreciate no tangled mess of wires or confusing configurations. It's essentially plug-and-play, making it great for anyone who wants high-quality sound without the hassle.

It's been a whole year since I got my Nakamichi Dragon and it still continues to amaze me. Exceptional sound quality. Hands down the best sound bar with Dolby Atmos surround and DTS:X support. Small hardware footprint without the hassle of AV receiver and wires yet superior surround performance. Quick and easy setup as well as customization for the type of content. Whether it's music, gaming or movies, click of a button will give you the best experience ever.

Outstanding. Absolutely loving my Naka!!!

Received one of the first units, and have been happy with the purchase. It's a great fit for my space and sounds great.

The most powerful soundbar I have ever experienced.

This thing came packaged with care! It was plug n play and so easy to set up. Played it for the first time and expected to be let down….. My mind was BLOWN on how clear and loud this monster is!!!! Well done. I'm going to get the 12 in subs to add later but my over all is AMAZING UNIT!

The Dragon is the most powerful sound bar on the market. There's currently no bar on the market that can match the Dragon's power in dialogue scenes. In terms of power and quality, the Dragon is the best sound bar so far.

The Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6 is incredible. The sound quality is fantastic, with deep bass and impressive clarity. The surround experience really pulls you in, especially for movies. It's not small, but if you're serious about audio, this one's totally worth it. Super happy with this purchase!

From the moment I unboxed the Nakamichi Dragon Speaker, I knew I was in for something special. This isn't just a speaker system—it's an experience. The craftsmanship alone screams premium, with a sleek, futuristic design that turns heads and adds a touch of luxury to any room. But it's the sound that truly sets the Dragon apart. The clarity, depth, and immersive quality of the audio are simply unmatched. Whether you're watching an action-packed blockbuster or listening to your favorite music, the soundstage is incredibly rich and lifelike. Every detail—from the deepest bass to the crispest highs—is perfectly balanced. It's like being in a private theater with a world-class sound engineer tuning everything to perfection. What impressed me the most is the system's ability to handle both subtle nuances and explosive dynamics effortlessly. The spatial audio tech makes you feel like you're right in the middle of the action, and the bass? Deep, thunderous, but never overwhelming. Setup was also surprisingly straightforward for such a high-end system. The included manual and app made calibration easy, and connectivity is seamless with all my devices. If you're looking for the ultimate home audio experience and want to invest in top-tier sound performance, the Nakamichi Dragon is worth every penny. It's more than just a speaker—it's a statement.

After installing the Nakamichi system paired with the 8” subwoofer, I've been thoroughly impressed with its overall performance. The soundstage is well-balanced, with clean highs, detailed mids, and tight, responsive low-end frequencies. The 8” sub delivers a surprisingly deep bass response for its size—tight enough to keep up with fast transients, but with enough low-end extension to add real presence to music and movie audio. The crossover integration is seamless; the sub doesn't overpower the mids, and there's no noticeable distortion even at higher volumes. Vocals come through clean, and the system maintains clarity across a variety of genres—from hip-hop to rock to EDM. Build quality is solid—no rattles, no flexing—just clean output. The tuning options allow for fine control, and once dialed in, the system produces sound that punches well above its price point. Whether you're into SQ or just want a powerful daily setup, this Nakamichi combo hits a great balance of performance, value, and reliability.

I have owned Sonos and Sony play bar systems, but I decided to give Dragon system a try. I'm glad I did. The voice clarity, pure volume, and now a much better low-end sub solution, the Dragon is the best I've heard by a fair margin. I'm very happy with my purchase and have no desire to even consider other options. For context, I bought the original limited edition production run unit then added one 12” sub. I have a long open room with high ceilings and the dragon fills the space with full articulated and big bass sound. Where the other options I've owned are good, and have strengths, they simply didn't give me the theatrical experience I was hoping for. If you're on the fence, give it a go. I think you'll be very happy with your investment.

I have never seen anything like it. I have used other products but never heard the sound effects I hear from this soundbar. I love it.

It was superb, didn't expect the change from my former setup, actually marvelous sounds; a game changer, thank you Nakamichi.

The Dragon was the first thing we bought for our new build. My wife and I had just got married. We sold both our homes with plans to build our dream home. I was losing my a dedicated space for my Marantz 7.2.4 AVR setup and had plans to incorporate my gear into the great room of the new build. My new bride wanted a Modern clean look. No bulky speakers. No ceiling speakers (the room is an open floor plan with a 25 foot ceiling). The gear had to look bespoke and disappear in the space. I saw Digital Trends Caleb Denison's CES video (and subsequent review) and was sold. The trick? Convincing my wife that we needed to invest $3800 on a system we couldn't demo first at a Best Buy. She trusted my judgment (and did a bit of research for herself). We bought the system on 08/7/23, got married on 08/26/23 and didn't finish our home build until 10/30/24. So the Dragon sat in it's box in storage for a year before we could even experience it. Again, we built the room around this purchase so our builder helped us precisely install the main unit as well as plug placement for the subs and satellites. The first time we fired it up was on the 1st of November 2024 and it was truly amazing. All we did for 10 minutes straight was cycle through the (2) demo tracks. Since then we have added my OPPO 4k Blu-ray player, PS5, and a Google TV Streamer. I am BLOWN AWAY how this system can reproduce spatial surround sound in an open floor plan space with 25 foot ceilings.

Before I start I would like to thank nakamichi first of all the dragon is magical it's not a soundbar it's a instrument of excellence. It turns watching TV into a magnificent experience you become immersed into the program. My Wife didn't like watching television once this beast became alive she couldn't believe what she was witnessing nor did I. I had to upgrade my Netflix prescription to get the full affect of dolby atmos to go along with my LG Oled 77 inch TV which has dolby vision. Even when the phone rings on the show your watching you pause the show to answer your phone but no one is calling you so you get some what embarrassed the press play to get back to the action you hear every whisper or bomb explosion perfectly. The combination of tweeters, drivers and bass alongside with the up firing real dolby atmos from dolby itself makes it all worthwhile. The real reason I is because nakamichi started out with audio equipment their decades of professionalism added with just what the consumer wants is the best combination ever. I played my audio files from my phone and through my TV damn sure didn't disappoint it was like live instruments that were precisely orchestrated I've never been so appreciative in my life as with The Dragon don't know how they will top this but I know it's coming and I'm more than happy with what I have. The Nakamichi Dragon Is The Best Ever Top Of The Competition Just Like Mount Everest.

We play video games, watch movies, watch social media on here and the sound is just amazing makes you feel like your there in the moment of the movie where sounds come from the direction as the movie, if the plane is flying over it sounds like it, if your in a rain forest the animals sounds like they are all around you making you feel like if you turn your head you might see the animals beside you, the sound of the ocean and waves crashing makes it feel like you are at the beach. Works amazing with my entertainment system just plug in and it'll automatically pick the source or you can pick it yourself. Best sound system we have ever owned plus it's Bluetooth so no running wires around your house!

I cantsay enough of how pleased I am with the system, after huricane Iam my home was completed flooded afeter moving out of florida I needed a new home theater I started folowing the dragon and decided I wanted one............after much delay I finally goy one and .......rock my world......now to get tew 4k dvds after I purchased a few of them I listened to them and was in in awe but the bass wasnt there ....so I went into the menu and discovered 3 of my subs were turned off............after turning them on I was blown away...................the 12 inch sub sounds great but right now I cant afford one and really hope they will come down in price.......Now if I won one that would be great////////////only thing I can say to that is there goes the neighborhood......in other words the Dragon Slays//////////////////////////////////////////////////

I have owned surround systems since the late 90's - first a 5.1, then a 7.1, and now The Dragon. The Dragon is the best surround system I have ever owned! I bought the original launch unit with the four 8" subs and added a single 12" sub when it was made available. The extra sub makes a huge difference! Deep, rich, loud, and full sound. Also appreciate the inclusion of legacy inputs so I can connect my turntable and cassette deck. This system is perfect if installing height channels in the ceiling is not feasible. I've had my Dragon for over a year and a half and I still love it as much now as I did then!

Nakamichi has big sound that engulfs the entire room. Making a movie go beyond what you could possibly expect from a soundbar. Both power and sound accuracy are unrivaled by any sound bar today, simply a amazing product.

overall from ordering to delivery and quality was excellent

I took a chance and am forever grateful that I did. Simple to set up, sublime sound. It always amazes my wife and I at how dynamic our set up is, both in sound and simplicity of use. As they say “Wife Approval Factor” I couldn't imagine a more simple but complete system to own and enjoy than my Nakamichi Dragon.

I've enjoyed every aspect of my Dragon. The sound of course is amazing and the setup simple.

My experiences with nakamichi has always been positive. Their support staff has been wonderful. I've had some connectivity problems with the remote/tv working with the dragon . The lg cx handshake has to be rebooted when my wife puts the tv in pause mode . I've owned Sonos , ambeo , Bose 900 and Sony's best snd the nakamichi dragon slays them all . The other brands are ok for the average person but the nakamichi dragon blows the other brands out of the water in fidelity ,atmos ,base , and overall immersion. I feel like I'm in the trex theater at my hometown movie theater . Different streaming services affect the sound quality so don't be too quick to judge the dragoon . Absolutely love my dragon system from nakamichi . I was a one of 500 of the first units . I would love to win a 12” sub woofer and it would be the icing on the cake. Thanks nakamichi for a great product. , it's 2nd to none.

Great sounds!!!! But a Lil lack of bass.

To phrase Nakamichi I have to start with the Ninjas. They are the most understanding service group that I have ever delta with. Knowledge and patience that make them king of service. Sound bar outstanding, two twelves and two eight subwoofers the King. No speaker wirres any where. I have fallen in LOVE with NAKAMICHI you will have to pry the remote from my hands when I die. John

Aside from early delivery issues, i am pleased with the quality and performance of the Dragon.

This is a outstanding piece of equipment. I watch movies and listen to music and this sound system makes everything so much better. Love it.

There is no other out of the box sound system (I can't refer to this thing as a soundbar) that comes close. Simply stunning.

I was a little let down with the bass when I received the original dragon with the 8" subs. However after ordering one of the 12" subs it was the icing on the cake! Wish I could have been able to afford 2! Sound quality is outstanding and would buy again!

Effin AWESOME System easy to hook up Wireless And feels like at the movies WARNING: the bass will break glass and vibrate your house and soul

Extremely impressed with the overall product. Very attractive design, something that it's a great addition to any room. I love the golden dragon 12" sub design. I own Sonos brand and this out shines that brand. No comparison. I haven't been able or dared to turn it all the way up. Extremely satisfied with this purchase, performance, and capabilities of this product.

i called to get help i am 56 and not computer smart, however the MAKAMICHI ASSOCIATE walked me through the process ant it was very easy. The sound is second to none, the build quality again is second to none. i would recommend this system to everyone, in fact if you don't have one then you don't have a sound bar system. maybe I am bias but i have not heard a better system. thank you.

I LOVE MY NAKAMICHI DRAGON SOUNDBAR I've been re-watching movies 😁 just to have the experience of the sound of this soundbar 🙌

The whole experience was worth it. I waited several months after miultiple delays. I love y Dragon 🐉

I absolutely love my Nakamichi Dragon setup! The accuracy, range, and tonal reproduction are simply outstanding—far surpassing my previous setup, which cost me five times as much. The sound is crisp, powerful, and beautifully balanced, making every movie night feel like a cinematic experience at home. Honestly, the only downside is that I rarely find myself heading to the movie theater anymore. This setup is just that good. A definite recommendation on all fronts!

I'm amazed at the quality and phenomenal sound from the Dragon surround sound system. It was so easy to set up with the app capabilities that make it easy to adjust to the room it's set up in. Very happy with this system. 12” subs would be even better I'm sure. Thank you!

The bass sound feel so unreal like you are in another planet of home theater. So far so good after all this time used Dragon home speaker.

Great

Customer service is great I contacted them with a couple questions and couldn't be happier.

I have had this system for a year now and Love it. My wife wasn't into spending the money, now she tells everyone how the sounds come for all over the room and she has to keep turning her head to see whats there!

The Nakamichi DRAGON 11.4.6 Home Surround Sound System is a masterpiece of audio engineering, surpassing traditional soundbars, challenging high-end AV receivers, and setting a new gold standard for home audio systems. It delivers an unparalleled home theatre experience, redefining what's possible in an all-in-one audio system. From earth-shaking bass to crystal-clear dialogues and immersive 360° surround sound, its sheer power, precision, and immersion outperform even high-end AV receiver setups, making it a worthwhile investment for serious home theatre enthusiasts.

I have had several dedicated surround sound systems in my life, but this sound bar blows them all the way, it has great highs those mids, a fantastic sound field, and great separation. You can't ask for much more.

This product surpassed all expectations! If set as recommended, you are literally in the movie or action being viewed!!! The main unit, 2 subs and 2 surrounds work in combination to provide a swirling/immersive experience like no other. Dragon is pricey for a reason. You will never regret it!!!!!!

I have owned several dedicated systems as well as sound bars, I expanded my system with an additional two 8inch subwoofers, it just doesn't get any better than this!

THE DRAGON 🐉PLEASE READ! Nakamichi Dragon with dual 12's is the Best home theater set up I've ever owned!Hello everyone, I've been a Nakamichi fan since before the Shockwafe SSE. Let me tell you right out of the gate that the Dragon is a huge step up in both power and immersion and the bass from the dual 12's is mind blowing. If you're on the fence, the Dragon is on a whole different level!I've been enjoying my Shockwafe for years, but I had been wanting to do an upgrade to my home theater setup and I was starting to think about upgrading to a full blown receiver, a separate AVR, and so on, because I honestly didn't believe a soundbar could get much better than what I already had. However, the complexity of that kind of setup (doing the research, finding the right receiver, positioning multiple speakers, and especially running and trying to hide wires) really put me off. Considering how simple my previous Nakamichi system was, and recently hearing about the launch of Nakamichi's new Dragon and after reading more about it and watching videos and reviews and reflecting on how well Nak had served me up to this point I decided to purchase the Dragon with dual 12" subs!Right out of the box, the first thing that caught my eye was the sheer size and upgraded design of the Dragon compared to the Shockwafe. The main bar and surround speakers have a crazy awesome design and look great! The dual 12” subwoofers look absolutely massive and have an awesome look to them and I swear they look just like REL subwoofers kinda like an S812 $3000 unit. The subs are not ported but are a bass reflex design which is a much better and similar to getting double the output from each subwoofer! The entire system just screams “premium.” Once I fired it up, I was greeted by a new LED display on the soundbar that's clearer and super sharp, a nice surprise and definitely dimmable to 0.One of the biggest advantages (and reasons I chose to stay with a soundbar rather than go full AVR) is the easy setup. I had the dragon unboxed, positioned, and ready to go in well under 1.5 hours taking my time. It was all double boxed and once i got it all out it was basically plug and play. Dragon even has a built in fully customizable on-screen menu now, something that was missing from the previous Nakamichi systems. This makes it simple to tweak settings for your room without the guesswork of manual adjustments or endless trial and error. And you can even customize the entire DRAGON system to match up perfectly with the size of your room. Also a nice touch that it has is settings for bass adjustments separately from subs volume!Of course, the most noticeable upgrade is the bass. This is the REAL deal for me was with the two 12” subwoofers, the lows are deeper, tighter, and hit harder and cleaner than ever before it's insane! The bass carries more authority throughout my room, making everything from explosions in action movies to subtle atmospheric rumbles feel more realistic. The subs feel like they move my floor and walls but the bass is so clean that there are not rattles just super hard clean hits. The Dragon subs are on another planet literally.Another improvement I'm loving is how the surround sound algorithm has evolved. You can tell Nakamichi put a ton of R&D into perfecting the Atmos effects. Even scenes I've watched dozens of times feel brand new because the directional cues and ambient noise are so much more precise and the rear speakers also definitely pump. Dunkirk was my first test run, and hearing those planes buzzing overhead was so immersive it felt like I was right in the cockpit. The clarity in the gunfire and explosions was astounding, one of my biggest takeaways again is how hard and clean the bass hits with the dual 12's. I'll definitely be re-watching more movies like this!The new AMT drivers and improved center channel also take vocal clarity to another level. Dialog doesn't get lost during chaotic scenes, everything sounds richer and more present. Even music moments within my movies feel like a concert, with cleaner highs and fuller mids. It's night and day compared to my previous systems, and honestly, I doubt an AVR based setup would be much simpler than hooking up the DragonThe Dragon's remote is obviously redesigned and way better and has larger, color coded buttons and bluetooth functionality. No more pointing it at weird angles and pressing the buttons multiple times to get the system to respond, I can literally aim it anywhere in the room, and it works flawlessly. The brighter backlit keys are super helpful at night, and the overall build just feels more modern.As far as the price goes: I've seen comments from people who are hesitant to spend extra on the Dragon. I totally get it...money matters. But, in my opinion, Nakamichi has truly delivered on what customers have been asking for: better algorithms, stronger drivers, a newly designed remote, and bigger customizable subwoofers. It's a substantial upgrade on every front. As someone who has used their older systems extensively, I can confidently say it's worth the investment and you won't regret it once you watch your first movie. Especially when you consider how it spares you the headache of a more complex AVR/speaker setup and wires - that also costs more.All in all, I am on a major high with this new Dragon dual 12” setup. It has reignited my fun for watching movies and going back and rewatching multitudes of my favorite movies because everything sounds better than ever! It's crazy! If you're undecided, my advice is to just go for it and test it out. I doubt you'll regret it, it's such an impressive piece of audio gear that I'm already wondering how Nakamichi will ever top this in the future! And, I wouldn't hesitate getting the dual 12's as I hear they will be compatible with any future upgrades!Thanks for reading my review, and I hope it helps those of you still on the fence. If you loved the 9.2 eARC or any other premium soundbar, trust me, this is a serious serious upgrade times 12 and I'm so glad i went for the Dragon instead of juggling with a bunch of components and wires and this experience has taken my home theater to an entirely new dimension times 12 if you know what I mean!

Not my first soundbar! I have had a Creative Sonic Carrier and a top of the line Samsung in my past. The Sonic Carrier was hard to interface, set-up, and to keep working. The Samsung had muddled sound. The Dragon is awesome. I have the dual-opposing 8 subs. My listening room has some quirks like a sloping ceiling. The Dragon was easy to install and fine tune. Pulled up the movie Midway I had watched not that long ago. Really impressive with planes and explosions in the sound field. Expensive? Yes. But you get what you pay for!

Purchased this system recently and using for a month now, hands now the best sound I have ever heard in a soundbar. In fact I watched the same movies with this soundbar which I watched many times before, I am able to hear the crisp details of sounds and lot of minute sound that I never heard before on the same movie..worth buying!

I didn't a lot of research for a home theater system, and decided on the Dragon 11.4 6. I'm impressed with the sound, and ability to make some many adjustments!

Product did not disappoint. Def worth the money. Extremely loud, great for parties and movie night.

Best product I've ever purchased on Amazon. Performed beyond my expectations. Worth the price.

Got the system from their eBay store. Despite it is refurbished but it is brand new. Very fast shipping too.

Wow I must say this was one of the best purchases I've made. Initially I was hesitant on making this purchase but wow, I must say it Pears very well with my TV and I'm so happy that I made the purchase. As far as the sound, I think it's the best sounding system ever you can turn it up, which you probably won't turn it up more than 15. It's very loud but very clean sounding and that's very important.

I really like this system. The clarity and volume are both high end.

Powerful soundbar, heard it over at my friends house. I thought it was an avr.

So now that I have two Dragon systems I have to give you my thoughts on the new quad 12” subwoofer configuration. I am not an audiophile, I have always loved music. I've played it listened to it and lived it my entire life, as lots of us do. I read reviews by likely paid critics who were anti Dragon. I can say now that I have my system dialed in it not only is the best home theater I have ever heard it is on par with the systems on top end theaters now. I love cinema, but I love the art of music even more. Music frames my life and life experiences good or not so much. Last night my wife was with her sister on a trip and I had the opportunity to really listen to my collection of music with the new Dragon system. All I can say is the critics who said it lacks musicality are just wrong. As I set in my chair rewinding my life through sound, the quality of the sound literally gave me goosebumps. I have a main stereo that is moderately priced in the audiophile communities at around 60K. I cannot tell you the last time I got that personal with my main system, which is excellent. There was no alcohol or other sense provoking drug involved as I have been battling liver cancer for two years for the second time around and am on a strictly regulated transplant list. Last night and even now as I write this I am listening to emotion and hope playing through what you have created, I feel your passion my friends. This system will go into history at least with me as legendary, listening yesterday reminds me how wonderful life is and has given me the lift even with my chronic pain to keep going. Thank you to all of the dedicated employees at Nakamichi who have touched me when I needed it. I hope others will see the worthy investment in their own well being. I cannot say thanks enough, bless you all.

You might think this system is expensive and it is. However, when you set everything up which only takes a few minutes, it will all be worth it! The volume ranges from 0 - 100 and I haven't had it above 25! It makes it even better when you have an 8k smart tv connected to it. Trust me on this, you will love it. The packaging is also pinnacle!

I've owned several high-end home theater systems, but the Nakamichi DRAGON 11.4.6 absolutely blows everything else out of the water! This system is a game-changer for home audio, delivering truly immersive 360° surround sound with earth-shaking bassthat makes every movie, game, and song feel like a live experience. Sound Quality – Beyond Next-Level The spatial audio precision is insane. The 11.4.6 configuration creates a full Dolby Atmos experience that genuinely feels like sounds are moving above, behind, and around you. Whether it's rain falling overhead or a jet flying by, the sense of realism is unmatched. Dialogue is crystal clear, even during action-packed scenes, thanks to the dedicated center channel and precision-tuned speakers. Subwoofers – Bass That Hits HARD The dual-opposing 8” subwoofers deliver deep, clean, and powerful bass that you don't just hear—you feel. Explosions rumble through the room, and music gains a new level of depth. The best part? The bass never distorts, even at high volumes. Build Quality – Premium & Futuristic Nakamichi clearly went all-out on design and build quality. Everything feels luxurious and solid, from the sleek soundbar to the wireless subwoofers and rear speakers. The wireless connectivity is rock-solid, ensuring zero lag or audio drops, which is something other high-end systems struggle with. Setup – Surprisingly Easy for a System This Advanced With a system this powerful, I expected setup to be complicated, but Nakamichi made it incredibly intuitive. The calibration process optimizes sound for your room, making sure every speaker and subwoofer is perfectly tuned. Even in a large living space, the sound distribution is flawless. Gaming & Music – Pure Audio Bliss I tested the DRAGON with PS5, Xbox Series X, and high-res music streaming, and the experience is unreal. The low-latency audio processing makes gaming fully immersive, while music playback is rich and dynamic, with clear highs, deep lows, and a perfectly balanced midrange. Final Verdict – Worth Every Penny At this price point, the Nakamichi DRAGON is a serious investment, but it's worth every dollar. If you want the most cinematic, high-impact, room-filling home theater experience available today, this is the king of surround sound systems. Nakamichi has set a new gold standard for home audio, and I couldn't be more impressed. 🔥 10/10 – Best Home Theater System I've Ever Owned! 🔥 Would I recommend it? Absolutely. If you're even thinking about getting the DRAGON, do it—you won't regret it! 🚀󻎶

Great system. Love playing my music to hear throughout the house. It did not like the samsung tv no matter what I tried. Works well with the new LG.

Arrived safely, very well packaged and heavy! Had it hooked up in 10 minutes. The unpacking took more time. The main unit is wider than my 65 inch LG OLED TV. But it fits and looks fine.And then the sound. It blows you away! Magnificent when playing atmos movies through Netflix. A nice touch is the info button which shows what type of audio you're listening to. I am very happy!

Best system available for the price. Nothing compares. Not only for cinema but music too is so clean. Your have to pay double this price or more to get a component system to sounds as good.You won't regret it.

As a 20-something in the 90's I vividly recall hearing about Nakamichi and their high end audio products. At the time my budget was limited so I remember thinking that one day I hoped to be able to purchase some of their products. I am very happy to say that day finally came for me and I am a very satisfied customer. The Dragon is a beast! Right out of the box it can be set up in minutes and works great with my CEC and Bluetooth devices. The remote, app, and on-screen menu are simple to operate and can calibrate the speakers to adapt to any room. The best thing is, no expensive installation for wiring those speakers, you just plug everything in and the Dragon will set the room on fire! This system easily outperformed my Onkyo/Klipsh/SVS 7.2 home theater system. Bottom line...get it! BTW, Nakamichi....please tell me you are already working on a mobile Dragon version for the car audio enthusiasts.

This is the best plug and play sound bar out there without a doubt you will not be disappointed of the force of the dragon if you want a home theater look no further than this fabulous soundsystem.

The sound quality is incredible—easily the best I've ever experienced. It's impressively powerful, capable of filling even the largest rooms with ease. I've been using it at lower settings, and my media room still rumbles with rich, immersive sound. The Dolby Atmos performance is outstanding, surpassing anything I've heard even on high-end setups at Best Buy. You feel everything come alive with so much high fidelity sound and Atmos placement (above and all around you) - Trust me this beats those $10K Home Theater heavy/bulky setups that I have heard at my friends home and now they tell if they had bought THE DRAGON. I'm absolutely thrilled with my Dragon and plan to keep it forever—I love everything about it!

I havent received/or installed it as of yet but i know that it will deliver! I currently have the shockwafe 9.2.4 and love it, so i know that i will be head over heels for this one... Ive also purchase additional subs to make sure i get what i want out of the system... Customer service is awsome! They are very attentive and responsive to any questions asked. They had no problem with my refund of the price change right after purchasing which was a big plus! I will definately be looking for my next upgrade over the next years. Keep up the great work!!!

This is an outstanding product and has some really great sound output. The movies sound as they would in a theatre, positional audio in Xbox and PS5 games are perfect, Youtube sound effects in demonstration videos sound great. You need to do the distance and wall height adjustments for best sound. I think for a home setup this is perfect as there is option to tweak sound if required but i found out of box setup to be perfect. Note that you cannot go over volume setting of 20 (max 100) as this thing is becomes very loud but there is no distraction. The best test of this system is the movie Swordfish and the sound effects they have in this movie. One other aspect is for pure vocal lovers, this system will blow your mind, its that great.

I've made many upgrades for home theaters over the years and am happy to say the Dragon is a step up. Nice to not have to run wires which makes this so perfect. Yeah it's expensive but very happy with my purchase. Great quality sound!

This soundbar is one of the best overall sounbars I have ever listened too.Very loud easy to install. The sound is clear, distortion free, the bass is very impressive, satellites quality is impressive as well. This system is very very loud. The app let's you to tweak every aspect of the sound to the perfection. Takes time to adjust everything the way you like it. I think this system has great value. Not for everyone. For plug and play customers, I think other brands would be a better choice.PS. The support team is very helpful.

This is the best soundbar i have heard and exceeded my expectations when i got it dialed in to my liking. It is very clear and the bass and surrounds integrate exceptionally well. A cohesive sound. I have the 8's and the bass is wonderful as i use it in a small room 13 x 12. It would definitely work in a bigger room as it is loud but i would personally opt for the 12's if i had to put this in my living room. I would definitely recommend the surround speaker stands from nakamichi as it is of very high quality, heavy and integrates with the speakers flawlessly. Makes it very easy to connect. I had to change the crossover level for the subs and now it's excellent. I have martin logan in living room with folded tweeters and this soundbar is very similar in that aspect. You can read reviews and say ok it must be good but once you purchase yourself you will understand. Only negative is i wish nakamichi would advertise that they are planning on a dragon with 12's subs so as to give customers options to purchase either size because upgrading is very expensive for some.

I love the simplicity of not needing wires running all over the place. Just plug everything into the outlet and you are done. It's sounds great with the dual 8” subwoofers, but I recommend getting both the 8” and the 12” subwoofers if want the Dragon to breathe fire. But be careful that the wife's not home to try and yell at you to turn it down.Enjoy

One of the best buys I have made. The sound is so good. Easy set up also.

The Nakamichi Dragon is fabulous! We bought this to replace our 5 year old Nakamichi ShockWafe system. That was a very good system when we got, but the Dragon is on a completely different level!

Totally worth the money…this thing blows everything else away!!!

I bought dragon as a discounted open unit. I have the Shockwave ultra as well for comparison. I had randomly annoying connection issues with the ultra that drove me crazy which is why I purchased the dragon. This thing is a beast literally. I wanted a soundar because I needed a smaller footprint and this unit delivered. The wireless signal can be increased for better connection but I didn't need to do that. There are a few things that I don't like but maybe I'm being picky. It has 4k passthrough but it doesn't work when the unit is off like my 10 year avr unit did. I like that because I game online and wear my headset so it's pointless to have the dragon powered up when I don't need it. For that reason I have my Xbox plugged to one of my HDMI inputs and the dragon plugged to my earc. My Blu-ray player is plugged to the dragon however. I'm still dialing in the calibration for my living room but I'm still impressed. The highest I've had the volume is 15 and that's nowhere near what it can do. I live in apartment so I have to be considerate of my neighbors. A true equalizer would be nice for the price this unit commands. Again I'm I'm used to having a full avr setup. The subs on this unit could be better.The 10 inch subs from the Shockwave sound way better and hit the frequencies good. Many people have complained about this which is why I did not want to spend 4k on the dragon and ended up going with the Shockwave ultra instead. I have the dual opposing 8s by the way. There are people that did a workaround to add stand-alone subs this unit and got the bass they wanted. You can always spend more and get a dual 12 set up but that was over my price range. If go with the dragon or it's slightly smaller sibling the Shockwave ultra you can't go wrong. They both deliver.

Nakamishi quality did not disappoint me!

This system has been absolutely amazing. It's everything as advertised. The sound is crystal clear and the dynamic range is incredible. Well worth every penny.

Wife wanted a wireless system to get rid of all the speaker cables. Went from a $1200 Onkyo, $600 center channel, and a $3000+ surround speaker system with a 10” sub to this. The Nakamichi Dragon sounds way better! Don't listen to all those negative reviews. This system is totally BA! Do I plan on upgrading to add on the dual 12” subs when they come out? You bet your A I do! But only so I can have 4 subs and feel explosions hit me right in the chest. System is just as good as going to the Dolby theater!

I've had my Nakamichi Dragon system for eight incredible months now, and it's an absolute game-changer! To enhance the experience, I paired it with an 83-inch LG OLED G4 TV. The combination creates a symphony of sound that perfectly complements the stunning visuals of the LG TV. Previously, I had a 77-inch LG OLED Wallpaper TV that came with its own soundbar. However, when I moved to a new residence with significantly taller ceilings, the old system struggled to keep up with the expanded living room dimensions. But the Dragon sound system proved to be more than capable of handling the new space. I now have a movie theater-level Dolby Atmos sound system at home, rendering the desire to ever visit a movie theater obsolete. I want to express my deepest gratitude to Nakamichi for creating such a beautiful and aesthetically pleasing sound system that perfectly integrates into my home setup. Again, many thanks! I'm a new customer but with this purchase you've got me for life!! Best Regards, James Beverly Hills CA

Love this system, it would be perfect if it had an Ethernet connection. The build is great , sounds great a lot of adjustments you can do with this system.

I do like it better than my sono it has more awesome power will recommend easy to set up.

Just WOW! This Dragon system is unlike anything I've ever owned. If you can afford one, you'll NOT regret it! So I had an older 7.1.4 setup with an Onkyo AVR. Wires EVERYWHERE and my robot vacuum will get tangled once a month or two, it was a real pain. I didn't realize how much of an eyesore it was until I set up the Dragon and got that clean, no clutter look in about 25 minutes. When I turned this thing on for the first time, my whole HOUSE shook. No joke, I didn't even check the volume settings before starting one of the demos, and it felt like a jet was flying right through my living room. I woke up my whole family! It was insane! Nakamichi should add a disclaimer about the startup volume because this beast can be dangerously loud. But that's the fun part. I've started rewatching some of my old favorites just to see how the Dragon handles them, and let me tell you, it's like hearing them for the first time! Dodgers vs Yankees, Dolby Atmos, DTS X, all of it sounds amazing. Dialogues are clearer, the bass hits HARD, and the surround feels like the sounds are coming from all around you,super immersive. And the best part? No more wires all over the place! Only thing I'd change is maybe adding an option to set a max startup volume in the settings. And I hope Nakamichi continues to support this with firmware updates because this Dragon deserves to stay updated. Anyway, I'm absolutely thrilled. Trust me, get this sound system, sit back, and let the Dragon work its magic! Thank you Nakamichi.

What an awesome buy if you're looking for a very loud soundbar. I read a lot of reviews before I bought this dragon. And YES it's a beast! It really delivers the sound and volume that you're looking for. At night when everyone is asleep I put it on a night mood and WOW! I'm very impressed. It's amazing what a soundbar can do. I love this thing! It's heavy and loud! I unpacked one package at a time by myself. I only weigh 147 and I'm skinny. Loved it putting it all together! I bought the dragon towers as well. It was like putting together a puzzle. So easy and fun. Thank you ALL Nakamichi team and volunteers and everyone and everything that makes this product what it is and stands for. You all did it again! I'm excited for next year to get the 12” dragon system! I'm going deep in my pockets again and I'm going to be upgrading With four subwoofers dragon! I really can't wait. I'm all excited! Thank you all Nakamichi once again for all of the hard work long hours and your skills to make a theater in my bedroom. Your ALL are awesome to me! Thank you!

After extensive research for a high-quality surround system, we decided to purchase the Nakamichi Dragon. Our requirements included a sound system that was easy on the eyes, included wireless subwoofers and the 360-degree side speakers. We are truly impressed with the Nakamichi Dragon's ability to deliver clear sound throughout a large living room with 20' tall ceilings. The up-firing speakers in the main soundbar and side speakers add incredible realism to movies and music. Some folks have complained about the lack of bass, but I have to disagree. The two subwoofers are more than sufficient to shake pictures off the wall if you wanted to. The demo soundtrack provided with the system is amazing and will leave you speechless. Sometimes I hit the demo button for guests just to watch their faces, or when I want to smile about this purchase. Nakamichi's technical support is second to none, they are extremely knowledgeable and respond immediately. We needed a little help with the initial setup and recently encountered a synchronization issue which Jeff quickly identified as a TV issue related to a Samsung's built-in sound delay which he guided us to turn off. Problem solved. While the cost for the Nakamichi system may seem high, consider that we have a Yamaha AV amplifier driving Bowers and Wilkens a subwoofer, a large center speaker system, and twin tower speakers which cost about six times more for sound quality that is better, but not $20,000 better. Additionally, the Nakamichi system has killer looks that are more subtle than our traditional AV system especially for a living room. I think you will be hard pressed to find a better surround system for the money and a company that provides the level of customer service as Nakamichi. Buy with confidence.

After years of searching for a true home theater experience without the hassle of a full installation, I was skeptical that any soundbar could deliver. Previous attempts with other popular soundbars, including the Sonos Arc and Samsung Q990D, left me disappointed. They simply couldn't match the power and clarity of my $22K dedicated theater setup. Then I tried the Nakamichi Dragon, and I was blown away. I recently moved into a new house in Vegas and put together a 9.2.6 system in my 30L x 22W home theater room. My setup includes a Denon AV1H receiver with all Wharfedale EVO speakers, totaling well over $20,000. While I'm thrilled with the theater room, my wife and I wanted something simpler for the living room—something accessible enough for family nights and entertaining guests, but powerful enough to impress. After the Sonos and Samsung didn't meet our standards, I gave the DRAGON a shot, and I'm extremely glad I did. The Dragon's unique AMT tweeters were a gamechanger for me. They deliver an unmatched clarity that brought me back to my Wharfedale setup. Unlike other soundbars, this Nakamichi system uses AMTs in both the main bar and surrounds, making vocals razor sharp and effects incredibly immersive. Installation took only 30 minutes—no tangled wires or need for professional help. Despite my living room's slightly vaulted ceilings and open layout, the Dragon adapted beautifully, filling the room with deep, rich sound.The first movie we watched was Mad Max: Fury Road with Atmos. It was as if Max himself was stomping right next to us—so powerful, you could almost feel the crunch beneath his boots. Every moment comes alive, from the thunderous bass to the crystal clear dialog, and the precision of the surround effects makes it feel like you're in the center of the action. I tested this system with reference movies like Edge of Tomorrow, Gravity, Dunkirk, and Pacific Rim. The Dragon didn't just hold its own—it soared. Explosions shook the room, eerie silences felt thick with tension, and the chaotic dogfights were delivered with pinpoint accuracy. The Dragon's six upfiring height speakers add a whole new layer to the experience, creating height effects that feel truly spectacular. With Atmos soundtracks, these speakers bring an immersive vertical layer that feels incredibly lifelike. During scenes in Gravity, for instance, I could hear debris whizzing overhead with precision, as though it were truly happening above me. In Pacific Rim, when the Jaegers and Kaiju clash, the sound fills the entire room from top to bottom, making each battle feel epic. The upfiring speakers work seamlessly with the rest of the system, allowing you to feel sounds soaring above, whether it's the swoop of helicopters in Dunkirk or the echoing footsteps in a cavernous environment. For a soundbar system to recreate this level of height and depth so close to the performance of my full Atmos setup is remarkable. The system's performance is on par with setups costing several times more. Now, we're spending over 70% of our movie time in the living room with the DRAGON. With technology like this, I'm confident that the DRAGON will set the standard for home theater sound for years to come. For anyone looking to invest in a sound system that won't need an upgrade anytime soon, this is it. The Nakamichi DRAGON has redefined what I thought a soundbar could do, delivering an immersive, powerful, and refined experience. If you're on the fence, don't be. The DRAGON will be the benchmark for soundbars for years to come. I am very tempted to add two more 12” subwoofers, but the only challenge is finding the space - because the sound is already massive.

I have installed several soundbars in the last 5 years and for the Dragon Experience- this is by far the simplest and most aesthetically pleasing plug and play on the market. OOBE- The bass response is unbelievable, mids and highs do not get lost in the explosive power of the Nakamichi Dragon, voices remain clear and distinct due to the AMTs even within intense action scenes. Spatial Audio reproduction with Dolby Atmos and Multi Channel PCM with The Nakamichi Dragon -is certainly the undisputed G.O.A.T. when compared to any other soundbar system available today. The most important aspects in establishing that premium Spatial Audio experience is calibrating the Dragon within the OSD for your viewing environment, combined with equipment placement. If you want to revolutionize your living room and have a movie theater in your own home- The Dragon is it. Period.

Love the quality sound and powerful system.

Breathtaking sound experience. It's worth every dollar. Highly recommended for those just wanting cinematic sound experience at their living room without the need of complex setups!

EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE ONE OF THESE! This has got to be the best system I've owned. It was very easy to setup. The 12”s are 90lbs, so I recommend having a second person. It can be done with one because I did it, but two would have made it much easier. The sound. OOOOH the sound! It's better than going to the movie theater. Between Dolby Atmos and DTS:X Pro, this system is nothing shy of wicked. The upfiring speakers bring an incredibly immersive experience. The 2 12” subs (highly recommend) make it feel like the explosions are happening right there! The build quality is obvious. No wires! Some people will sneer at Bluetooth, but this system handles heavy lifting like a champ. You will want to calibrate it. This is nothing new for people that have owned surround sound before. For the newbies, don't skip this step. It does make a world of difference. I did need to reach out to Nakamichi for something, but they handled it amazingly, and professionally. They stand behind their product. If you ever wind up adding this system to your home, you'll see why they do. I can't say enough about how worth every penny the dragon is. Please do yourself a favor and bring this home. You will not regret it.

this system is the greatest, i replaced my enclave cinehome pro system with the dragon, no contest, the dragon does things that no other soundbar will ever do, the remote is great, the phone app is flawless, and the appearance of the unit is stupendous, there is no system to replace the dragon.

I had the top Samsung and, prior to that, the Sonos soundbar. The Nakamichi has superior sound quality. The frequency response of the subs should be lower, and it would be perfect (I have the 8” subs).

Single box is ok for me as I have the ability to carry it around. It is long which makes it a bit awkward getting through doorways. Box was well cushioned and each part came out perfectly. Multi-box packaging would make it easier to track although I have some concerns that the more easily moved smaller boxes would be tossed around more through the shipping process.

I love this product, nothing to dislike. Sounds and looks great. Premium sound, easy set up and takes music and movies to another level

1 year of ownership and my honest opinion… Pros: If you want the loudest system… ✅ If you're tired of Closed Captions… ✅ If you dream of crisp, clean audio… ✅ If you don't want speaker wires everywhere… ✅ If you want to feel like you're in the movie… ✅ If you want bragging rights for having the Ultimate Audio System for Music, Movies & Games… ✅ Con: Going broke because you'll be spending the rest of your monies on 4K-Ultra HD movies because the Dragon's ability to slay ATMOS Technology with its 11.4.6. channels is just simply jaw dropping & amazing. I own this system and I approve this message… ✅

I usually don't do a lot of reviews for the products I buy but man I must do a review on this beast. The Nakamichi Dragon is by far the best sound I've ever heard. My father had a bose sound system since 1999 before I was born, so going from that is this is absolutely the biggest upgrade. The charity on this system is insane for a soundbar, and the subwoofers are no joke they kick. Thank you Nakamichi for creating such an amazing sound system and making the movies I watch more immersive.

I have no words So easy to have the best sound for anything in your living room Unbelievable Amazing Guys this is what you need Wireless Power Quality Reliability

This is the best speaker system I have ever used. The downside is that I may not be willing to endure the inferior sound of lesser-quality speaker systems in my home. I might have to buy another system for my other TV. I have hearing issues and sometimes turn the sound too high on the other speaker system. But, with the Nakamichi Dragon, I don't need it so loud, because the sound quality makes up for the increased loudness the other system needs to compensate. Should you buy one? I don't know -- only you can decide. If you want to give a stranger a vote in your decision, my vote would be YES. It's expensive, but I believe it's worth it. Splurge and reward yourself. Get one and enjoy.

This is the best system you can get for the price! It's convenient having no extra speaker wire, amp etc. This thing is easy to install and is plug and play. The sound quality is nothing short of amazing and will have you shocked and unable to listen to any movie/tv show/music without it. Just do yourself the favor and get it if you were questioning about doing so. It's the real deal!!

After debating for years to obtain a Nakamichi since the Shockwave series that was 7.1.4. I'm very happy I waited patiently until the release of the Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6. It came well packaged and a very easy setup, roughly took me about 45 minutes to complete my setup. The demo completely blew me and the family away. I came from a traditional setup with a receiver 7.2 and the difference is completely night and day. Some of the best features is that set up is quick and easy, multiple configurations can be easily and effortless formed with the Nakamichi Dragon. The best thing I love about this system is that the dialogue can be heard even on the lowest of settings, when the family is sleeping I can easily game and watch shows comfortably at audio levels of 1-3 (Yes , you read that right). When we are all watching something together or if it's a movie night Audio levels are range from 7-13 with. Mind you we are in a medium size, but if you like having a cinematic experience at home. I fully recommend the Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6! And now with them coming out with 12" Subwoofers you can truly expand and have more options for your setup. We choose this system because of the easy set up, easy to modify for different spaces, and not having to run cables and wires like I did for my older traditional system. There are wires involved but only for the two sub-woofers and two satellite speakers. Other than the optional upgrade to the new sub-woofers they just recently announced. You have everything you need to have one the of the best experiences for gaming and watching movies with the Nakamich Dragon 11.4.6.

I replaced Martin Logan, BohlenderGraeber speakers with a earthquake sub ran by a high powered Marantz receiver.This system is easy to tune to your roomand it sounds amazing. Crisp clean and dynamic at the right times. Outstanding for just stereo listening also. For me my purchase was worth it. Will be hanging OLED with sound bar shelved under it.

I brought my Dragon from B&H instead of Amazon. B&H delivered in 2 days. Amazon was going to take a a week and a half. When I got delivery they placed it in the house. The box did not have any damage on it. The plastic wrap wasn't even broken. Just be warned the box is heavy. Also I didn't buy the dragon speaker stands. I already spend $3,600.00. it didn't make sense to me to spend another $400.00 for the Dragon stands. Brought the ELIVED Universal Speaker Stands Height Adjustable 28"-37.4" instead. They are more than large enough to hold the back speakers. As the photo shows my theater room is over my garage. So the ceiling is angled. This surprisingly makes the systems Atmos seem more emersive. You seem to be sitting in what ever you're watching. My wife thought I was nuts when I told her what I paid for the system. But after it ran through it's demo start up. She had a big Kool aid grin on her face. I must say the dragon hits in a viseral way. My only beef is now Nakamichi comes out with the12" subs at $1,600.00 a speaker. ARE YOU KIDDING ME! I feel if you already own the system. You should get a half off discount. Yea $800.00 is still expensive. But I would pay it. Now 2 of them would be $1,600.00 not $3,200.00. And I want you to think on that, because that is the current price of the full system. The new price of the Dragon with the 4 12" subs will be 9k. I feel nakamichi will not move many units at that price point. Don't get me wrong. I love my Dragon and 3.5k I have no problem paying because I see the value. But 9k? That would be a hard pass. No thanks.

Awesome, everthing advertised and more!

Totally fansastic no comparrison what so ever worth ever penny would do it again i highly recomend it

I received my Dragon and it looks Beautiful! It looks like it came straight from the factory. The Suppport gentelman helped me setup and test the whole system which I was hugely grateful for that. I did not expect that kind of service. One speaker was shipped with incorret label so they also sent me the correct label for the left side. I am SUPER HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE! Thank you Very Much

This is a great soundbar system. It's big, it's powerful and it sounds amazing.

My wife thought I was out of my for the price brought the Dragon for. After getting everything installed and tuned. She had great big Kool aid grin on her face when it ran the demo. We then sat down watched a few movies. She loved it. Only draw back is. This will now cost more cash. She now wants to redo our theater room. Ah well.

Very powerful. Subs are strong as are the rear speakers. Motion tweeters help with vocals and precision. Ideal for Atmos sound with all the upfiring speakers in the soundbar and rears. So good, I bought another Dragon, so I now have 2. I mostly have full theater rooms, but the Dragon can now replace those systems, especially for Atmos applications.

Let me start by saying that if you care about a system that is loud and imposing this is the one. Now let's go the cons: -Company advertising subwoofer that go down to 20hz, they certainly don't ... not even close ... they have a lot of impact at 40hz but anything bellow this will make them bottom out and sound terrible. -Company acting like we are crazy and saying reviewers are lying, then releasing a new subwoofer with a label that show down to 19hz as a add-on for 1500$ each subwoofers .... -Saying they came out with these subwoofer due to owners complains but not admitting that the original product is faulty. Do not buy this product, you will be voting with your money that you agree with those type of business practice.

Amazing sound!!!!

Amazing sound!!!!

Excellent for music, movies, games, and just surprising everyone who hears it for the first time. And also great customer service.

Nakamichi Dragon is the best sound bar I've ever had - bar none. This is my second Nakamichi sound bar and I am so satisfied with its performance when it comes to clarity and fidelity. I now fully enjoy my favorite movies and music at the comfort of my own living room. .

I am so in awe with the sound effect and emersion of this unit! I have been rewatching movies to get a new appreciation of the sound effects. Also works great on vaulted ceilings.

The product quality is VERY solid, setup couldn't be easier. I looked online for several setup instructions but honestly I'm still using the default settings with great results. Just have to tell the soundbar what distance your listening position is from the speakers. My home theater room is not small and the Dragon delivers sounds from everywhere. Truly impressed, would give it 6 stars if possible.

I recently upgraded to the Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6 system, and it has completely transformed my home theater experience. As someone deeply passionate about high-quality audio, I can confidently say that this system delivers exceptional performance and value.Setup and Installation:The installation process was smooth and user-friendly.

Whether it's the thunderous effects of action scenes or the subtle details of classical music, every nuance is captured with precision.Compared to other soundbars on the market, such as the Sonos Arc or the Samsung Q990D, the Dragon 11.4.6 stands out with its superior audio performance. While those soundbars offer solid sound, the Dragon's 11.4.6 configuration with its multiple subwoofers and speakers delivers a more dynamic and enveloping surround sound experience, bringing a new level of realism and immersion.The system's support for Dolby Atmos and DTSis a standout feature. The height channels contribute to a genuine sense of verticality, enhancing the overall realism of the audio.

Each component feels solid and well-constructed, with a sleek design that fits seamlessly into any home theater setup.

Their team is responsive and knowledgeable, providing valuable assistance throughout the setup process.The Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6 has exceeded my expectations in every way. It offers a powerful, precise, and immersive audio experience that elevates any home theater. If you're serious about high-quality sound and want to enhance your entertainment setup, this system is an outstanding choice.Highly recommended!

I bought this system to use in my bedroom as I already have a $50,000+ full set up for my home theater. I don't mention that to brag but to say that I have experience with some pretty decent equipment. That being said, I love the dragon and wouldn't hesitate to buy it for a home theater setup given the quality for the money. Sure, soundbars aren't ever going to give you the same dispersion or soundstage as separates and the subwoofers aren't going to go infrasonic but I would be very happy if this was all I could afford or if I had size constraints. Setup was very easy and adjustments are as well. The lack of microphone calibration is a bit of a bummer but I have yet to experience a software solution that doesn't require significant adjustments post calibration anyway. Highly recommended

Ups sends Thor to deliver this box. It's seriously heavy. When you and your team of horses gets the box where you need it. (It's a 2 man move) You open the box and it's just beautiful. The angels blow trumpets and everything. You set it up fairly easily and you plug it all in. Then it hits you. The demo start up sound and you know you just bought the most awesome soundbar system in the world. Period. Then you put on your content. It hits you clean and clear with all the Bass you will ever need. If you're a sound enthusiast this is a very satisfying system. Thank you Nakamichi. You guys ROCK

I went from their 9.2.4 1000w system to this and it absolutely blows me away. Watched the first X men movie on it and the opening scene with Eric alone shook my house big time. I don't have the best room to set it up in as it's very open on one side and slanted ceeling but it still does a fine job!

This is a beast. The bass moves you, but I wish it was just a little deeper. The clarity is so crisp and the surround is very immersive. I have not turn the volume up past 25 and it goes to 100 so let that sink in. I feel like I wont ever need to upgrade at this point. I dont give reviews easily.

I have a very large room with ceiling heights around 28”. I am mazed at the dialog clarity and how this soundbar fills the room!

After owning a $30,000 dedicated home theater system built on Marantz and Martin Logan I can say that this is a budget friendly comparable. Both hold their own in their respective rights and form factors, but this hands-down delivers every bang for the buck!

I was hesitant to spend $4,000.00 on a "soundbar" but man I am sure glad I did! The setup was incredibly simple and right out of the box the demos were incedible. I could actually track things with my ears like a bird that flew in a circle flying up and down around the room! The plane flying overhead is incredible too.After some adjustments, it was time to watch a 4K bluray disc. Sound placement is perfect, punchy bass coming in at just the right time. A jump scare where a woman screams off camera to the left startled me! It sounded like she was actually in the room off to the side screaming at me!This system is so much more than a simple soundbar, It's an AVR in soundbar form.The setup and configuration is easy and very straightforward - If you can plug in HDMI cables, plug power cords into an outlet or surge protector and turn an Allen wrench then you have all the skills you need and you'll be up and running in 15-20 minutes.The phone app is a nice touch as well. It performs many of the features the remote that comes with the Dragon does.I have an open plan living room with an angled vaulted ceiling and the surround effects still work their magic. I can't even begin to describe how pleased I am with this system!Nakamichi hit this one out of the park!Nakamichi, thank you for creating such a masterpiece! I give you 10 Stars out of 5!

The dragon is the best atmos sound system i have ever owned.

Got the Dragon after doing quite a bit of research. We have large, open living room with 20' ceilings and a 120" laser tv. Previous audio systems that we had struggled just to provide clear dialog for movies, let alone a cinema experience so we decided to take the plunge and match our cinema style screen with an audio system that corresponded. I was initially concerned about the Dragon's Atmos performance in this type of open concept, but once I ran thought the set up calibration steps using the OSD, I realized that this thing lives up to all of the hype. Super deep low end, clear mids and crisp highs, along with Atmos effects that don't disappoint. We opted to get the Dragon speaker stands for the surrounds, which are extremely well built and provide a sleek, modern aesthetic. It's not an inexpensive system, and it won't be for everyone, but we are truly happy with our purchase and the support that Nakamichi Ninja Service provided along the way.

I purchased this system that is rightfully more of a wireless surround sound system, rather than a wireless soundbar. The packaging is excellent and the build quality excellent with the possible exception being that one might argue the soundbar top grill should be more heavy duty. Setup is straight forward and it is easy to be up and running within minutes with great sound quality. Excellent sound quality is at your fingertips with relatively easy in-depth adjustment through the Nakamichi Dragon app. The soundstage is excellent for the price range with very well executed vocals, bass, highs, and atmos projection. It could use more punchy midrange, but hopefully this can be addressed in an update.I contacted Nakamichi customer support several times prior to purchasing. They were accessible, very informative, and clearly care about producing a happy customer. Would definitely recommend this product. If Nakamichi or others are interested, I recorded the unboxing and could do reviews.

Unbelievable clarity and bass to the point where it sounds literally like a tank or military plane drove through your home!Must be experienced in person to understand the hype.I suggest a 4K Blu-ray player and Godzilla X King Kong.Also for the gamers try Hellblade 2.*purchased directly from Nakamichi

It's expensive but well worth it. It sounds awesome no wires, bass is awesome lows are awesome. We can play pretty much anything at volume level 10 to 15 and you will hear everything. Turn it up to volume 20 to 25 house starts shacking. We now make it a point to watch at least one movie a weekend. Buy it don't buy Samsung or anything else

Excellent brand a quality products! I love the customer service! My Nakamichi dragon arrived in perfect condition! Great addition to my theater room!

Updated After 3 Months of Ownership:I upgraded from the Shockwafe (1300W) system to the Dragon in early July, and have spent the past 3 months using the system on a nightly basis, listening to a ton of music and watching tons of movies and sports. My overall impression is that it sounds fantastic. It is extraordinarily loud and detailed. DTS:X soundtracks on 4K UHD Blu rays sound to be genuinely movie theater level quality. Dolby Atmos, too. Everything else sounds fantastic, but 4K Blu Rays are where this soundsystem really shines.Now for the unfortunate: My first soundbar was completely defective. And it took about 2 months before Nakamichi relented and sent me a new one. I had to wait over a week without the soundbar, as well, while it was in transit. Not the best experience after spending so much on a sound system. I am sharing this in the event that someone else purchases a system and has the same experience.Right out of the box, something felt off with my first soundbar. It just didn't quite sound right. But I figured I was just adjusting to a new sound profile. However, constant connectivity issues plagued my Dragon. I was constantly getting a black screen whenever I switched devices or even just switching out one blu ray for another from the disc player attached to my soundbar. I was also experiencing interference with the surround speakers, and surround speaker dropouts. Things just weren't working well.I underwent months of troubleshooting with Nakamichi before they finally agreed to send me a new one. Since receiving the new one almost a month ago, I've had zero issues. No more connectivity issue whatsoever, and the sound is just way better overall. Clearly the original soundbar I was sent was defective. So...if you buy this system and aren't getting out of it what was advertised, demand a replacement. Lemons are very real with electronics, especially a brand new product like this that is doing a bunch of stuff never done before.Also, one of my subs developed a horrible rattling noise coming from inside the port after a couple months. Nakamichi immediately swapped it out for me.My two cents? This is an awesome soundbar product that is ahead of its time. But like most ahead of their time products, there are some flaws and issues that have yet to be fully worked out by the manufacturer. I am still very happy with this sound system, because it sounds amazing and is meeting my expectations now. But for a while, I was stressed and disappointed by it. I am glad I stuck it out and ultimately got the replacement, because now it is awesome.As a bottom line, here is my recommendation: If you are relatively new to the soundbar world, you will probably be better off with the Shockwafe. It is significantly cheaper, and it sounds great. I never had any issues with my Shockwafe. I'm listening to it now in the kitchen. It's a great sound system. If you already have the Shockewafe or a similar system and you want to upgrade, go for it. I don't think you will regret it.

With TVs, there's a great deal of options across the entire budget spectrum. There are good high end options that cost $3-4K, insanely high end options that cost $15-20K+, and budget options that cost $200. And everything in between. With home theater sound though, I've always felt kind of abandoned in that mid-high end range. My options in my price range were to spend $10K+ on a proper Atmos system for my home, with all the pain and cost of installation, complicated set up, and many points of failure...or to settle for a soundbar system that doesn't hold a candle to top line professional 11.4.6 systemsThe Dragon fills that hole in the market perfectly. In TV terms, it is the Sony A95L, Samsung S95D, or LG G4 of soundbars. Definitely pricey, but that $3-4K range is reachable for home theater enthusiasts with some disposable income, even if they aren't full on millionaires. And it's worth every penny once you hear it. It's able to be stunningly loud without being overpowering, it's able to be subtle without losing the sense of cinematic scale you want. I've used a fair amount of super rich people's high end home theaters, and mine now sounds better than all of them, just by plugging in a few cords. I would never have guessed a system with this few physical components could sound this good.If you can get your hands on one, go for it. I promise you will not be disappointed.

I bought the Nakamichi Dragon, which was to be delivered by UPS between 1-3 pm. Of course, they delivered it when no one was home and couldn't be signed for. The problem was that I was getting married and away on my honeymoon so multiple delivery attempts would fail and then it would get sent back. UPS was useless and uncooperative. I contacted Ray at Nakamichi and he responded so fast and had it delivered to a nearby UPS center so I could pick it up! Amazing service!! Now, on to the Dragon. This thing is serious!! My TV in the pics, is 55" so you can see the size of this! Along with the size comes awesome sound and clarity. I hooked up everything and turned it on and hit the demo and my God, my room was alive...lol. Now mind you, I had a Samsung 990C and that was no slouch but the Dragon slays!!! What makes it even better is that you can calibrate it like a traditional AVR. I put in the distances and then calibrated the sound to 75 dB and what an even better experience!! Top Gun: Maverick sounds incredible. Saving Private Ryan is another go-to to test its chops. I love this sound system. While it may look like a soundbar, it's more like an AVR system minus all the speaker cables. If you have the money and want an incredible surround system, then get this!! You won't be disappointed. One last thing. Nakamichi does an incredible job with the packaging and attention to detail in the manuals, including accessories. Top-notch!!

The Dragon rocks. I also have the 9.2.4 shockwafe which is a great system as well and the Dragon is an improvement. The price for the Dragon is kinda pricey but if your blessed financially well enough to get it then I think you should get it. I also have a $13,000 yamaha 11.2.4 and klipsch system in my dedicated theater room and the Nakamichi does not beat it but it comes close and it is a fraction of the cost.I had made a review with less stars because the Dragon was less satisfactory but come to find out it was in my settings that made it not perform like it should. I was getting pcm where it should have been dolby digital plus and I was getting Dolby Atmos Mat where it should have been dolby digital plus dolby Atmos. But support had me to disable a setting on my earc and now the dragon is getting the right codecs. Im very happy now

First of all the packaging alone on this system is of higher quality than most other actual sound systems. When you get it out of the box and set up be prepared for outstanding, fully immersive sound quality. Pricey but well worth it if you looking for a top tier sound system.

The best experience ever 👍

Like all Nakamichi products this not could be different

i streaming through Nvidia, using this as sound system, i got it when it cost much more and whomever get it now is getting a deal, No regrets at all, this is the bar of soundbars

I am modifying my original review because Jeff from Customer Support reached out to me and resolved my issues.I primarily bought the Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6 to complement my Sony A95L TV. It's performance as a home theater blew my family out of the water. Its presets offer realistic sound, unmatched by much pricier home theater systems, and its flexibility in configuration (like a 1-touch ‘Night' mode) makes it a pleasure to use. Setup was a breeze, and the perceivable difference in sound quality was immediate (I tried out quite a few configurations at Best Buy as a comparison).Here's the icing on the cake: given that we didn't have a good stereo system, I was hoping to have my home theater serve that purpose. I had to perform a few tweaks (like turning off the two outward-facing sub-drivers, leaving one in each cabinet active as described in another review) and saving it as a preset, and voila—I have an immersive audio experience from my Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6!You can't go wrong with this purchase!

I have been interested in the Dragon since it was first announced, but I already had a Nakamichi Shockwave that I loved, so why spend the money? This year I finally decided I had to have it. It is like no other surround sound system I have ever had. I have had Marantz receiver's with Cerwin Vega speakers that I thought were out of this world sound, this system destroys that. I simply have never heard anything like it from such a simple set up. So, thank you again for releasing this sound bar, I have no regrets and continuously tweak it for even better sound. I could not be happier.

I wasn't expecting I'm going to receive my Dragon in 4 days time that's was very fast, I'm very happy with customer service best support professional..! For the dragon is just the best sound experience I never had top quality sound details in Movies or Music just blowing you away Amazing.. for B&H team

Not only is this system fantastic and a major upgrade from the Shockwave EARC truly providing you with a movie theater experienceBut what I'm more impressed with is Nakamichi's care for their customers. Their customer service is top notch. They've responded quickly to any issue I've had. Had a bad right sub (most likely damaged during shipping) that they replaced immediately, without making me hassle to justify the swap.I also purchased this on June 7 and was bummed when I saw they recently lowered the priced. I reached out about it and honored their 30 day price match guarantee and refunded me the difference. I was ready to swallow the missed opportunity but man they came through and I'm just really grateful overall for both their products and their staff.

I wondered if the system performance could match its admittedly premium price and if it could come close to my Denon 7.4.6 AVR setups. To my surprise, after tweaking things with the help of the FB forum and a bit of break in, this thing has EXCEEDED my expectations! It is able to provide a truly immersive sound experience in my 20x18 room that opens to the kitchen of the same size. I had to reach out for a customer service item (non product). My issue was resolved within 30 mins! Will definitely purchase from them again! Quality product and quality company! Oh yeah, initial setup took no more than 15 mins if that. Took me longer to unbox the thing, lol.

This soundbar is simply the best there is currently available. Nothing even comes close. I also own the Nakamichi ShockWafe 9.2.4 eARC and am very pleased with this upgrade. In addition, Nakamichi is an amazing company. Their customer service is amazing and they go above and beyond the call of duty with each interaction. You won't find this with many other companies. They truly care about their customers.I will never buy another brand for home theater audio going forward!

NAKAMICHI – DRAGON 11.4.6 - BEYOND AMAZING!!After searching far and wide for an immersive audio surround sound system in my living room.I settled on purchasing the ‘Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6 – I am not at all disappointed!ORDERING –Ordering through Amazon was EASY!SHIPPING/DELIVERY - Approximately 4-5 Days.I used tracking for delivery date to personally inspect the box packaging while the UPS truck had arrived. No physical damage to the shipping box. Great Shipping! Zero Issues!UNPACKING –UPS kindly placed the 150 lb. box inside my garage door for safety, until I was ready for unpacking.I had planned out the living room areas for sub-woofer and surround speaker locations.I wore soft gloves, as I unpacked and carried every piece to its place, so as to not leave finger print smudges on every surface, apparently the sound bar is prone to finger prints smudges. I carefully unpacked the 35 lb. sound bar and each sub-woofer.Additionally, I purchased the ‘Dragon Speaker Stands' for mounting Surround Speakers as I have no suitable ready to go location for each of the two Surround Speakers.PHYSICAL SET UP –Set up overall including the Dragon Speaker Stands, overall took 45-minutes.PROS: Everything was relatively rewarding as placement of every piece was finalized.------DRAGON SOUND BAR *Set-Up Tip –Wearing gloves, I placed two TV tray stands in from of TV credenza as they were close to the same height. I placed the sound bar on the two TV tray stands, under each end of the DRAGON Sound Bar.I could then easily reach underneath the DRAGON Sound Bar with easy access to plug-in the AC power adapter and all HDMI plug hookups. This is better than rotating the 35 lb. DRAGON Sound Bar for better visibility, just to plug in each plug. The sound bar Is relatively heavy to continuously rotate per HDMI Plug.After a sound check and everything worked, I very easily moved the DRAGON Sound Bar back onto the TV credenza to its location, below in front of the TV. All cables very easily slid through below the TV, to the rear of the credenza for cable management clean-up.NAKAMICHI DRAGON USER MANUAL –Read through ‘NAKAMICHI DRAGON USER MANUAL' step-by-step to preset all my preferred video / audio and speaker settings. Time about 15 minutes. I will tweak these settings a bit more as I get more settled and adjusted to the dynamics of sound throughout my living room.FINAL IMPRESSIONS –I am totally Stunned and Overwhelmingly Satisfied with DOLBY DTS coming from NAKAMICH DRAGON 11.4.6!!! I have zero regrets with the overall setup which was gratifying in itself. The audio sounds are Explosive and Immersive and All-Around My Living Room! My Family & Friends are dropped jawed at what this NAKAMICHI DRAGON 11.4.6 Delivers from the subtle whispers sounds, clear dynamic voices up to Heart Pounding Explosions and all the effects traveling throughout my living room where there are no speakers such as the ceiling and areas between the surround speakers! DOLBY DTS Surround Sound is simply Awesome when played from content provided in that format. Everyday regular TV programming is still immersive in ‘all speaker stereo mode'. I enjoy the subtle audio sounds as to where normally you would not pick up on to hear those sounds.I Am Very Pleased & Extremely Happy with NAKAMICHI DRAGON 11.4.6!!!NAKAMICHI SUPPORT –I experienced an extremely rare malfunction with my AC Adapter. I was in contact with NAKAMICHI via email and telephone. Help was never a long wait! The AC Adapter was remedied with a new AC Adapter within 3 shipping days. Overall, I was very Satisfied with the ever cordial, NAKAMICHI DRAGON Concierge and Their Very Professional Special Ops Ninja Team to resolve my AC Adapter issue.Everything Works Perfectly!Set up very clean! Minimal Wiring!Sounds Beautifully Amazing!No More Going to The Theaters! LoL

if you are looking for a home theater sound this product is what you are looking for it is very impressive for what it can do you, you can adjust the setting, calibrate it to your room specific the whole nine I am very happy with this purchase yes it is very expensive but it is worth the money, be ready to piss of some neighbors.

I am currently watching everything with 20-30% volume. The sound coming from the dragon is so beautiful to hear. You can feel even the sound of tear drop. It is so crisp, no noise nonsense, can scale to any size room. This would be best experienced with larger room or living room. This will allow the sound to reflect and bounce nicely. Currently it is over **** for my home, but this is life time investment. Enjoying this every second. Hopefully they keep releasing the firmware updates to make this last for next 10-15 years.

The GOAT of soundbars and it's not even close. Easy to connect and the DEMO out the box is UNBELIEVABLE. My 98 inch qm7 is gonna be like being at the Theater

Let's be honest anyone reading this, is asking themselves is it worth the price? Simple answer is…I don't know. What I mean is that I have had other sounds bars Bose, Sony, Vizio and others but this one is the best and by far no really by far. But I made concessions. What I mean is I was going bigger better picture tv or shot throw laser tv but my wife said sound makes the experience better than a better picture. I thought other wise so of course we did what my wife said big sound big picture but quality could have been better. So after about a month of use here is the honest opinion. Is it great, yes! Is it what everyone says…if they say it's good or great then…yes! You hook it up and even if you don't dial it in right away it will still be better than anything thing. How do I gauge this…for me it's simple…I always having to lower the dragan cause it's sound is great clear exact as where I normally with other bars was raising the volume to hear voices not just sounds.So question is it is it still worth the money…if you want the Ferrari of sound bars yes. But yes there are faster cars but but now we are not just talking about speed but speed along side of refinement. So if this is one of your options you won't be disappointed. But if it's not in the budget…I haven't ever driven a Ferrari either and yet there has been cars to put hugh smiles on my face.Take it with a grain of salt

Such a well made piece of equipment.. Solid as a rock! The sound is crazy good and precise. Very loud, almost too loud. Would buy again for sure

Came from a 5.1 system which never quite satisfied. The Dragon was easy to install out of the box and delivered truly impressive sound from the get go. Had to request support when I couldn't get ATMOS sound out of my Netflix app on Xfinity. Sean from support was able to walk me through other options and we determined the Xfinity app was at fault. I have to say the support level is way higher than any other tech product I've ever purchased. These guys do want you to get the most out of your purchase. Very happy with the support I received.

Impressive in all respects. I suggest for best results that you carefully calibrate the soundbar and surrounds for your specific listening environment.

What impressed me was the clarity of this AMTs it really makes a difference and how loud this system gets with zero distortion! The atmos is good but a true AVR setup can still out perform it easily, relying on bounce and refection for sounds can vary from user to user, even with calibration. Direct firing speakers from above is no match. The subs do deliver and check the box for low level dBs and can shake a room, but they are still 8in woofers and if you've ever felt a 13in woofer hit you may be disappointed. At the end of the day cost is what matters and at this point in time the $3500 price tag beats out a fairly comparable AVR system. Great value for the money 100%!

It's a little pricey but that's the price you pay for the sound quality of the Dragon system. My TV and Dragon are in a medium sized room and the sound I am immersed with puts me in the middle of the action when I am what an action movie or in the front row seat of a concert when watching a concert. When comparing to my original TV speakers, the speaking dialog is clear and projected from the center of the Dragon while the surrounding special effects/background audio is enveloped around me. Although I only have a 65" TV, I feel like I am at a movie theater only better as I am saving about $25 or more in a movie ticket, pop corn and a drink. My only minor complaint is that it sometimes takes up to a minute for the sound to start playing out of the speakers in the "TV" setting when first turning on the TV/Dragon. Perhaps an update will be released to correct.

I'm a long time Bose fan (I know, I know) and am moving from a Lifestyle 650 system to the Dragon. My initial listening experience was really cool, but after a few movies and music it just didn't sound right to me. I was using the default settings. Then I spent some time calibrating both the room size and volume settings, and wow, what a difference. Once you get it right, the spatial performance and immersion are outstanding. This thing gets REALLY loud and is incredibly powerful - like house-shaking powerful. The ribbon tweeters offer a ridiculous amount of detail - almost too much (in music you hear background noise, bleed-over, and digital artifacts that are hidden by typical speakers). This is greta for classical music. I have now rewatched over 50 movies just to experience them on the system. Sicario and No One Will Save You made me literally jump out of my seat. Highly recommended

This is the best that happened to me, I used to enjoy my movies with my Vizio elevate, but with the nakamichi Dragon it's a whole different level, rewatching the same movies it's like watching it for the first time,

FabulousI love the system, the sound is every bit as good as a surround sound, IMAX theater and easy to control. It sized up the room exactly automatically. I did the manual and it was no better than the automatic setting just the best.

Extraordinary product which provides a true cinematic experience. The music reproduction is also first rate and costumer service could not be more accommodating.I could not be more pleased with this purchase.

This is one of the best sound bar i ever seen in the market and the experience in this is like tremendous the product and sound quality is awesomeI am say its not just a sound bar its an ultimate home theater which you won't regret it! From looking different expensive home theater in the marketI love to recommend this product

I have the Dragon for 6 months now after the software update and the many hours of break-in. This system can't be beat. I would buy this system again with hesitation.

Got my Nakamichi Dragon two weeks ago, replacing a more basic Samsung sound bar. Setup was amazingly easy - followed the very clear instructions and was up and working in about 1/2 hour. The sound is great! My only real complaint is that the remote is somewhat confusing - it is hard to understand what all the buttons do.

I would put this system up against any other, and expect it to beat it. The hardest thing about it for me was figuring out where to place the surround speakers. But I would have the same issue with any other system.I thought I was in a movie theater when I accidentally hit the demo button. My wife was so freaked out by it that she had to leave the room. Being in a rainstorm with no visuals was a little unsettling for her, it was that realistic.Highly recommended!!!

Quick easy setup. sound quality approaching high end audio systems. No need to invest in an expensive AVR. I sold my Marantz!!

It is everything I expected and more. I'm still playing with some of the settings, but absolutely love the system. Clarity is amazing as well as the power and punch.

Absolutely the best.It has been pure fun learning how to properly use my Nakamichi Dragon. The quality and technology is a true joy to use every time I turn it on. The technical support team is beyond reproach. Best of the best. They accept the fact that we purchased an expensive piece of technology that is worth every penny so far. It truly excels in every way you use the Dragon. Absolutely no regrets and I would strongly recommend it to anyone who enjoys home entertainment.

Very satisfied with the product..the sound quality is like nothing else..

Honestly I had doubts on the price… but once I decided I'm sticking to this long term, man…. The unboxing alone is feeling like a kid on Christmas Day! The sound is ****** good! seriously get the wow factor from anyone I show it to. It's the best when they look around for other speakers in the room 🤣👍� just do it….

Very impressed with this sound bar. My configuration isn't an easy one being an. open floor plan. though after spending some time performing a custom configuration it sounds great. Easily on par with many separate speaker setups. Highly recommended for use cases where conventional installations are not a fit, ceiling cutting holes or running wires is not desired, Mmusic isn't the main focus, or where cost is a factor.

Hands down, this is the best sounding home theatre system I have heard. The equalizer presets for movie, music, game, etc are excellent, but if you want to customize, each sound area can be individually adjusted, including height. Bass is floor shaking if desired, and 3000W fills any room. Wireless surrounds make placement easy and uncluttered, and deliver clear rich sound with no connection issues so far (using for two months now). Yes, it's expensive, but I have no regrets.

Perfect perfect perfect

First, I was very impressed with the packaging. It was obvious that Nakamichi wanted it to arrive in good shape and it did - my kudos to the engineers that boxed this up! I have never received a product so well protected, and this made a very favorable first impression. The setup was easy, it really is plug and play. The sound is not only exceptional but can be easily dialed into whatever listening environment you want. And all from the carefully designed remote. The main reason I upgraded was the difficulty we were having hearing movie dialogue on my JBL 9.1 sound bar. I was told I would have to get a dedicated component system for $8,000 to $12,000 and run wires through my house to get center channel clarity. Not so! For half that I have great clarity, excellent bluetooth surround speakers, and no longer need subtitles. Thank you Nakamichi for making such a great product - you don't see this quality very much anymore.

Amazing product and incredible customer service. I'm so happy I bit the bullet and made this purchase and truly don't miss my 7.2.4 system at all in comparison and certainly there's no comparison is simplicity or livability.

I used to be into sound systems and AV receivers and setting up speakers around the room to get great sound but as I've gotten older and life has become busier I don't have the time to spend hours tweaking the speakers and running the speaker wires and then hiding the speaker wires.I did have time to do the research and I found that the Dragon could do everything that I wanted my sound system to do but with a setup time of less than an hour. It has not disappointed. All of my employees and family members are just blown away with the sound quality of this soundbar and best of all all I had to do was set it up in a short span of time and it just worked out of the box.The only problem now is that because it sounds so great I have to fight to be able to watch shows in my living room now. LOL. Everybody wants to watch their shows in the living room instead of in their rooms now.Hard to believe that that little sound bar could fill up this big of a living room but it does without a problem.

My wife and I live in a CBS house and without getting into details the cost of wiring was out of the question. Furthermore I wanted great sound and my wife wanted no wires. After extensive research the Dragon came to our rescue.Unboxing this thing and you know you have a well made product. It's wrapped with custom cut styrofoam like you would see in a high end rifle case. They would have to drop it out of an airplane to damage it.After unboxing I upgraded firmware and did have a Left sub either die or fail on or around the firmware upgrade. They rushed me out a replacement and all has been working perfectly now for a month. Amazon Alexa controlled, with a Sony A95 77inch and a PS5 working seamlessly with eARC. So with that said customer service I would say is above average as well.I am an audiophile and this sounds truly better than anything I've heard. I'm sure it could be outdone with built ins, for a lot more expense, but it literally has me spinning around during movies, surprised with such real sound coming from all directions. Truly great sound. I am happy with my purchase and the companies support and would recommend to others.

The sound is incredible! The ease of setup - not having to run any speaker wires is great. Everything paired up wirelessly in seconds - subwoofers and surround speakers. Very happy with this purchase and would highly recommend!

Arrived as promised.This shouldn't be called a sound bar, this is an avr that is the shape of a sound bar.First setup.Easy to install as long as you have two people.(this thing is heavy).Get the optional mounting hardware with this. If you're planning to mount the sound bar on the wall you will definitely need these.This thing is basically plug and play, so once you place it in the spot you want then just turn it on and enjoy.POWERFUL..This thing can get loud. Volume control goes to 100, I can listen to it above 15 at the most.I usually have it set to 11 or 12.SOUNDS.Fantastic, everything is clear and sound is heard from all over the room.I have this setup in a dedicated media room with a 120 inch ust projector. It's a blast to watch a movie with this .EXPENSIVE.Yes it is, and worth every penny.You basically have a dedicated AVR with the hassle of running speaker wires and the hours of setup.For a decent AVR setup with speakers it's will come in at the same price without the hassle.CUSTOMER SERVICE.They are on point, I have called for them to ask a question and they are very responsive and even sent me out a flash drive with updated software to load on it.NO WIFI.This is the only issue I have with this unit.You have to load a thumb drive with updates and then plug it in. Which generally is not that big of deal unless the soundbar is mounted on the wall. It sits pretty flush and will have to be removed to plug in the thump drive. Since it's very heavy, 2 people should be used to do this.In short I have no problem recommending this product to my friends or anyone else who is interested in a top of the line sound system.

To date this is the best sound system (in my limited experience) I have ever listed to. Prior to my purchase I owned a 7.1 (2018) Nakamichi sound system and it was incredible for what it was, I paid somewhere around 700$ for it. However this system is in a league of its own. The 11.4.6 spatial audio is absolutely amazing; the onboard sound demo is jaw dropping, one minute you hear a bird clearly flying around your room and the next a 747 is flying directly over your house. The system advertises it can produce sound up to 125dB and I believe it! For perspective a concert is typically 120- 130dBs. The loudest I ever turned it up to was 60 (I'm assuming it's on a 1-100 scale) and that was more than enough for me. Going to the movies after having this set up will forevermore be a subpar sound experience compared to what I have at home. The system is expensive but as of posting this review (5/15/24) you are buying the cutting edge of consumer sound, if you want the best in my opinion, this is it.

The sound clarity is amazing. It can be loud, it can be quiet. The sub's boom!. The rears add excellent details. The app is useful, and the UI is solid as well. The remote is fine, but i use a universal. The packaging was top notch, even with all the abuse it took from UPS everything came perfect.Only draw backs, are cost, size, and wish it had another HDMI port or 2. (Came with 3)cost is obvious.size - it is bigger than any other sound bar. So if you're tight on space it might not be a good fit.more HDMI ports - is just for all my gaming consoles - and personal need.5 stars would recommend to anyone who is in this price point and space footprint.

This is my second sound bar from Nakamichi and the Dragon did not disappoint! I'm very impressed with the sound quality and overall build of this system. To be able to connect via Bluetooth and the performance of the 4 subs are crisp and not overbearing, exactly what I was looking for. I also loved the fact that the satellite surrounds are wireless, for neater cable management, just have to plug them into the wall. This 11.4.6 was a must have for me and now my family and really enjoy are Dolby surround sound movies on the big screen, with popcorn in comforts of our home!

It has pure fun learning how to properly use my Nakamichi Dragon. The quality and technology is a true joy to use every time I turn it on. The technical support team is beyond reproach. Best of the best. They accept the fact that we purchased an expensive piece of technology that is worth every penny so far. It truly excels in every way you use the Dragon. Absolutely no regrets and I would strongly recommend it to anyone who enjoys home entertainment.

At first I was skeptical about a soundbar, I read a lot about it online and made me very curious. The problem was that it was only sold in US. At some point I read in a comment that B&H is going to sell the Nackamici Dragon soundbar and they are shipping internationally. I ordered the Dragon online and within a few days it was delivered to my home in the Netherlands. Nicely taken care of by B&H photo. The soundbar you have to hear first to believe it and even playing music on it through my apple tv sounds very good. I am very satisfied with it.... What I found unfortunate was that B&H Photo did not sell the surround speaker stands at that moment. I ordered those from another website...

Product was boxed up very well. Setup was super easy. Menu System was easy to understand. Sound quality was amazing. Price is a bit high but the quality of sound is worth it.

If only the Dragon was available before I built my home theatre system, I would have easily chosen this. It's sleek, powerful with incredible fidelity. Amazing piece of tech!

I have used the Dragon for movies, TV and XBox gaming. For TV I've found it decent, but typically streaming is very dependent on the source of the material. For movies, even from streaming media from Apple TV to Disney+ and Netflix, the quality and presence is phenomenal. I am loving this thing. For XBox gaming, I find I have to tune the bass down a little bit, but fortunately there are favorites settings so I can save my gaming configuration. The positional accuracy is excellent. Overall,It is money well spent.

I wish I had the time to give Dragon (as I call It) the review it deserves. I have become less technical over the years, but for us the Dragon was the answer we were looking for. My only complaint is the footprint of the unit and components is larger than I would have liked. I learned very quickly that the concern was in my head as this unit represents the likes of more expensive components where the speakers would have cost more than the Dragon. Yes, I mention cost because the initial deterrent would be the price. Don't be fooled, it is worth it. The unit will become one of your favorite topics of conversation about how it handles certain scenes in movies. I will be honest, there is still a lot of things the Dragon sound can do that I have not taken the time to investigate. On regular network TV, even the commercials sound so good you actually listen to them. Too bad more shows don't realize how important sound it to its success. I did not have an opinion until the Dragon showed what is missing as well as capturing what is available for sound.

This product is straightforward and easy to setup! Sound quality and clarity were pristine! This soundbar is extremely loud and clear. I have it hooked up using just about every input, and they all sound really, really good. I am extremely happy with this purchase!

I like my music and movies loud and clear. My fiance doesn't like it too loud. The Dragon adapts to both of our tastes without diminishing sound quality. When the guys visit, the Dragon is free to roam. And, it is capable of much more than my smallish house can handle. If I wanted to, I could crank it up and entertain the neighbors—and without distortion. It's incredibly loud and clear. The ATMOS surround sound is excellent. I tried Sonos's best and newest subs, soundbar and surrounds, the Nakamishi Dragon has the edge. The only thing I lacking is an equalizer on the Dragon application. Highly recommended.

I don't have a big space and getting the best sound it used to take a lot of space and cables. There are a lot of bulky home theatres systems out there and it takes a rocket scientist to make it work but that is not the case with the DRAGON.Perfect sound from a sound bar it is just incredible. I know the price is a little up there but the benefits and the experience you get it is worth it.Couple of days ago I was testing the system with a couple of heavy bass audio and it literally shook the house. This is incredible.

As close as u can get to separate speakers without wires. Very easy to set up and the sound is phenomenal. 100% across the board. Fills the room with sound.

Amazing sound with premium audio and music sources. Even makes streaming TV with all the compression sound better.

As an avid audio enthusiast, I am continually on the lookout for products that deliver both exceptional sound quality and immersive experiences. The Nakamichi Dragon Sound Bar has exceeded all my expectations and then some.Let's talk about sound quality. From the moment I turned on the Dragon Sound Bar, I was blown away by its clarity, depth, and richness. Whether I'm watching movies, gaming, or simply streaming my favorite tunes, every sound is crisp and perfectly balanced. The bar's Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support create a three-dimensional audio environment that transports me right into the heart of the action. It's like having a personal cinema right in my living room!Installation was a breeze, thanks to the straightforward setup process and included mounting hardware. Despite its sleek design, the Dragon Sound Bar packs a punch with its powerful speakers and subwoofers. The wireless subwoofer delivers deep, thunderous bass that adds a whole new dimension to my audio experience without cluttering up my space.Another standout feature of the Nakamichi Dragon Sound Bar is its versatility. With multiple connectivity options including HDMI ARC, Bluetooth, and optical inputs, it seamlessly integrates with all my devices, from my TV to my smartphone. Plus, the built-in Chromecast and Bluetooth connectivity make streaming music from my favorite apps a breeze.But perhaps what impresses me most about the Nakamichi Dragon Sound Bar is its attention to detail. Every aspect of this sound bar, from its premium construction to its intuitive remote control, reflects Nakamichi's commitment to quality and craftsmanship. It's clear that they've poured their expertise into creating a product that not only sounds phenomenal but also looks and feels like a premium addition to any home entertainment setup.In conclusion, if you're in the market for a sound bar that delivers unparalleled audio performance, versatility, and style, look no further than the Nakamichi Dragon Sound Bar. Trust me, once you experience its immersive sound quality and effortless connectivity, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. It's truly a game-changer for any home audio enthusiast. Highly recommended!

I was skeptical about spending this much on a soundbar system at first, but I'm so glad I pulled the trigger. This system blows my previous setup out of the water. The immersion you get when you play Atmos and even regular shows is AMAZING!Even my wife loves the sound of the Dragon. Happy wife, happy life!

Upgraded my home theater to the Dragon and very happy with the system. The Dragon is everything I'd hoped for in a wireless soundbar system. This beast will shake your house if you want it to, so be careful when you start increasing the volume 😉Very clear sound all the way around.It's not the cheapest system out there, but if you want a fire-breathing system for your pad, this is the one to get.

What I liked was how easy it was to setup roughly 25 minutes it's expensive for a box system but when you look at other box systems it's not to far off in price especially by the time you add sub and surround speakers with that said I was shocked when I played the demo there are 2 demo's 1st is the objects moving around the room 2nd was a 747 taking off that's when the dogs had enough lol now I'm coming from the nakamichi 9.2.4 earc model which I moved to my dedicated gaming room but the dragon is on another level I was trying out different movie clips from starwars to godzilla and I heard things in the background I never heard before in movies I have watched many times I'm truly amazed at this system now I know it's not going to beat out full on av systems but the dragon blurs the line especially if it's in the same price range

I got this on a whim, Had done another customers home that had one and it sounded good, once I got it in mine wow, it was impressive, after the initial new item glow wore off still very happy with the purchase and would highly recommend to anyone in the market

I ditched my receiver system for the Dragon and can't be happier. Didn't think my old system was bad but it doesn't come close to the Dragon. Dolby Atmos movies that I had previously watched prior to the Dragon are 10 times better sounding and it's hard to believe this all in one box Dragon sounds the way it does. Great job Nakamichi!

i've had multiple soundbars n this is past all, the Atmos is up there literally, subs let you know when somethings hitting or pounding, the the options of what can be turned on or off is real good, Impressive Surround sound system

When I originally set out to plan my new home theater, all the big box stores seemed to push me in the direction of a Sonos set up, but I always research things into the ground before a purchase is made. After months of research on my own, I decided that Sonos was great for everyday people who want a great experience. I also realized that THE DRAGON was more for someone who really and truly wanted the most realistic immersive home theater (ATMOS) experience possible. Enthusiast vs. Lifestyle. Schwarzenegger vs. Van Damme. Ferrari vs. Camaro. Custom built vs. Store bought. See what I'm saying? The Dragon features intensely deep bass, same way you experience in a theater, NOT your cousins decked out Yukon XL w subwoofers blaring. The sound is beyond crystal clear. Volume is beyond loud...like cover your ears LOUD! BUT NEVER ANY distortion. Set up is a breeze. Customization (if necessary) of settings is simple. The remote is nice and easy. The product itself is built to last and looks amazing. Nothing about this is cheap or anything less than the absolute best. Thank you for making this product.

Best soundbar by far. Easy to setup. No messy wires. Replaced a Polk 5.1.2 traditional speaker/AVR system and this sound so much better. The Atmos effects are great. It is worth the cost.

UPDATE, April 2024 - Nakamichi's Concierge is truly the best name for this phenomenally responsive customer service. Their Ninjas do a wonderful job solving all issues -- in fact, I feel badly it's taken me a week to get online here and amend this 4-star rating to a 5-star, because hardly a day after I sent the attached photos, they had quick-shipped me a replacement subwoofer!! It arrived with a prepaid return label so I could drop the damaged one back into the shipping container, and leave it at the local return shipping store. Again, superbly packed, and almost laughably, again the box was beaten and torn by the delivery service, but THIS time, my replacement sub arrived in perfect condition. As soon as we figured out how to Bluetooth pair it (really simple, actually), we discovered a new depth and even MORE power to this already amazing system! Cannot believe how much better this sounds to me than the top-end Sonos system we thoroughly tested down the street at our local Best-Buy. Sonos soundbar, surrounds and subs are nice, but simply CANNOT compare with the potency and immersion that true audiophiles like myself enjoy with the Dragon! Hands down, the best equipment I've added to my home since my Nakamichi RX-505 tapedeck, which I still enjoy to this day! Only now, we have the added benefit of the Concierge service, which is not just "suitably or aptly" named, but a rather provides a level of service that sets a new standard for what should be a return to most hotel's once-great "concierge" services! Could not recommend more highly.First, it does have AMAZING sound -- puts Sonos top-end units to shame ... and that's with only 1-working subwoofer. As we just hooked ours up and have only enjoyed it a little, coupled with a 132" screen, it's TRULY like being in the theater! I don't have a lot to add/say beyond that yet, (VERY easy to set up), because of our limited time with it, BUT ... I will say that despite it being extremely well-packed, the box and padding didn't protect everything. I'm thinking someone must have dropped it on the bottom at some point, as the bottom gets all the weight, and doesn't have padding as thick as the top and sides, and that's where our "Right" subwoofer was located. We didn't even see any damage until we pulled it out and I went to connect its powercord, and the little dent caught the corner of my eye (see photos). At first, I thought ... oh well, just a blemish ... but instead of wonderful rumbling, it rattles, so I'm working with Nakamichi's Concierge service to get a replacement/exchange it. Will re-post/update when that's resolved, and hopefully I'll have more to share - and change the star-rating to a 5-star. (Even with only one working sub module (still a twin-sub, of course) in a 20x14 foot dedicated theater room, it STILL sounds amazing, so the "sound" rating still gets 5-stars!) ... -- Dr. P

Undoubtedly the best "sound bar" system on the market today. I say "sound bar" lightly as this performs significantly better than any other I've heard and it operates closer to a component system. I'm kind of a low-key audiophile as I've had high end Focal systems in my car before, but never any home theater setup. A few weeks ago I had recently purchased Sonos Arc, 2x - Sub, and Era 300's, but was never happy with the audio for the price, especially not being able to adjust simple things like center channel audio. For not much more, I got this setup and it's honestly amazing with all the reviews online being truthful to its performance. People are not exaggerating at all.The Dragon allows you to fine tune the system almost as if you had a DSP (just no frequency crossovers besides sub), and this allows you to really get this sounding exactly how you want. Ironically enough, I think the settings right out of the box sound the best and I've only adjusted sub settings to not shake down my house, but this system even sounds good with bass heavy music and that's an added bonus.If you want a plug and play system that will sound amazing without any more work or additional parts (setup took about 10 minutes after removing everything from packaging), then this is the system for you. Obviously price may be of concern, but if this is within budget then rest assured this is the right choice. Very happy with my purchase and HIGHLY recommend to anyone interested.

Awesome sound all around! Best surround system I've purchased

The Nakamichi Dragon doesn't get featured in many soundbar showdowns because at its quality, performance and price it has no peers. It's more expensive, but it still offers great value.I acquired Nakamichi mounts for the soundbar and the surround speakers. The soundbar mount has versatile mount points, and once mounted there's still some lateral flexibility to center the soundbar. The mount is discrete and feels solid with the heavy soundbar in place. I mention all of this here because it's also the best wall mounting solution for a soundbar I've seen. Make sure that the HDMI cables you get (for any soundbar) support 48Gbps and have smaller terminators because they need to start bending close to the HDMI ports on the soundbar.The mounts for the surround speakers feel solid and are discrete, but the surround speakers are heavy enough that I recommend hitting a stud. I mounted them on the side walls. The mounts are very easy to use and provide routing for the power cable. The vertical speakers in the surround speakers are angled to reflect off of the ceiling and rotate so they can be aimed at the primary seating area, providing flexibility in where they can be mounted.The room I set this up in has an 8 foot ceiling, the speakers are mounted at seated ear height, and this is the only environment I can speak to.Connecting the surround speakers and subwoofers required pressing one button, and there have been zero connectivity issues. Audio sync has been flawless. (The TV must be plugged in the HDMI port one and whatever port the TV uses for its HDMI ARC/eARC port.)The system doesn't have an automatic calibration feature, but the on-screen menu is easy to use. Just pick the matching physical configuration of the speakers and enter the distance from each speaker to the primary seating area. Sitting off center still provides amazing sound effects' localisation. Some of the setups I've experienced can't maintain this, but the Dragon's speakers and processing shine here. I had to move the subwoofers a few extra inches away from the wall to eliminate some boominess. It eliminated the reflected sounds bad timing and sharpened the bass.There's enough power to drive all of the speakers and maintain clarity throughout the entire frequency range at all volumes, so you don't have to turn it up if you don't want to. But you'll want to.I adjusted the subwoofers' crossover frequency for my preference, but I liked the default levels and settings of all of the other speakers after calibrating for distance.I switch between the Music and Movie modes based on what the source material. I use an Oppo UDP 205 Blu-ray player, Apple TV 4k, PS5 and Nvidia Shield Pro (through the Oppo HDMI IN) as sources.DTS X Pro through the Dragon is amazing, and is currently much, much more expensive to get any other way. Dolby Atmos positioning is so smooth and clear that my dog spins while looking up and around in time with birds circling.Music in surround sound, including Dolby Atmos depends on the quality of the remixing. Sometimes it's more natural sounding or broadens the sound stage wonderfully. Sometimes the positioning of instruments and sounds feel like the artist's intention. Some mixes are distracting in ways that I don't prefer, but this should get better as the industry gains experience with it. When it's done right you feel right there. (The Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense, Taylor Swift - The Eras Tour.) Metallica's Black album is better in stereo in my opinion.Upmixing of movies and music is done really well by the Dragon. It can play and handle anything, and everyone you know will hit their limit before it even gets close to its own.My unit came with the latest firmware, so I never experienced the lower bass mentioned in some reviews.I love it. I love how easy it is was to setup and calibrate. I love how well it handles the variety of sources I throw at it. Most of all I love how it sounds.There's one thing that I wish it did better, which is transition from source to source with less delay before the audio starts. It's definitely not a deal breaker for me. I don't channel surf or constantly switch sources, but I notice the delay when I do.I tried to find comparable setups using separates or soundbars, and they simply don't exist. If this is reasonable for your budget then you can buy it knowing that you can't find anything that can compete with all that it can do so well for anything close to its price.

From watching movies to playing video games. This sound bar can't be matched, and the only real way to experience this sound bar is in person. I am beyond happy with my purchase.

The reviews are real I was on the fence whether to buy or not as i already had a klipsch wireless 5.1 system. Omg this blows it out the water in every aspect. I'm so happy I splurged. Now i need to figure out how to make the base stronger as that is the only area where my klipsch was superior and that was one sub vs the two that come with the dragon hopefully it's just my settings. Definitely worth the purchase

The whole house was shaking. But first and foremost if you buy this it's a little work to set up. It comes on firmware 2.0 which made the subwoofers a little underwhelming. Updating to firmware 2.6 fixed this. Subwoofers worked like…a dragon. Know it's not something you can just update via internet by the click of a button. You have to get a USB, copy the update file than attach it to the soundbar . Other than this…the system is 100% amazing!

Awesome sound system! The depth and clarity is amazing.

Great product. Would not connect with my Samsung 83”TV. This caused a considerable amount of tine in the setup and phone calls to Nakamichi. Never could resolve linking the soundbar to the Samsung TV. The nagamichi tech was very helpful and easy to understand. Ultimately i spent another $2,500 on another TV. This obviously is not a solution to the problem most people are willing to consider. This is a major disadvantage to this soundbar. The soundbar is great but if you can't connect to a tv its useless.

Just take it out of the box an hook it up. It truly is an enjoyable sound system.

Nakamichi makes the best dolby atmos system by far

For a wireless soundbar style system, this really is in a whole different class. Incredible power and detail, unbelievable how they figured out how to bounce the sound off your walls and ceiling to mimic a 10-12 speaker home theater system. It's quite amazing. Remote is a bit odd, but that's a minor quibble. I love it.

Fast turnaround from order to delivery. Same week. System was packaged well, no damage and easy to set up. Wall mounts for surround speakers were well designed and the right way to locate them. Performance for basic television viewing is overkill but great for movies and higher volume on streaming music. Probably more system than I need on a regular basis but good to have the best.

It's been a great experience, best system i ever have. Great in music and even better on movies. Is worth every penny.

All other soundbars are a toy

ausome i cant descibe it, you half to here it...

All you need to come out with now is a 4 satellite system instead of the 2 satellite system that is currently offered. hopeful for the same price i will

Incredible sound. Bluetooth is flaky if you try to connect more than one phone, and the remote app is missing a power button, but those are just "nice to haves."

The international shipping was impressively swift, arriving in less than a week. And let me confirm that this DRAGON is staggering, I'm excited to share my comprehensive review: Package: 5 Stars - Despite the external box showing a few scratches and tears, the internal packaging was meticulously intact, safeguarding the system in perfect condition. The extra protective measures employed were notably well-considered and effective. Materials: 4.5 Stars - The main unit boasts a robust build, primarily composed of metal, adding to its substantial feel. The only minor drawback is the generic quality of the power cords across the system. The rubber feet in the Main unit and the subwoofers (SWs) are very nice and elevate the system properly. The rear speakers, while not feeling as premium due to their external materials, are solid, weighty, and deliver excellent sound quality. Ease of use: 5 Stars - The initial setup and operation exceeded my expectations. The system was remarkably user-friendly, free from any connectivity or pairing issues. Furthermore. It will reward a more dedicated user willing to delve into the settings with a much refined and richer sound. Sound: 5 Stars - The Air Motion Tweeters are exceptional, delivering crystal-clear vocals that feel as if someone is conversing in the same room. The detail in the rear channels is particularly impressive. Initially, I was slightly underwhelmed by the subwoofers (I had them placed in the front, facing forward next to the Entertainment console), but after repositioning them based on tips from the Nakamichi ninjas and employing the ‘Subwoofer crawling' technique, the sound transformed. The bass now envelops the room magnificently. Connectivity and compatibility: The HDMI 2.1 ports function seamlessly with my PS5, Apple TV 4K, and SONY UBP-X700 BD player, with no discernible delay or quality degradation. A minor issue arises with the cable management rubbers, which can cause bending in thicker cables. However, the comprehensive guides on their website for optimizing audio and video settings are a commendable and user-friendly touch that more brands should consider. In summary, the DRAGON system is a remarkable addition to any home entertainment setup, striking a fine balance between sophisticated design, user-friendliness, and exceptional sound quality.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently upgraded my home theater setup to the Nakamichi DRAGON 11.4.6 Home Surround Sound System, and let me tell you, it's nothing short of incredible. Previously, I had the Sonos Arc Soundbar+ 2 Subs+2 Sonos Era 300s, but the difference after installing the Nakamichi system is like night and day. First off, let's talk about the setup. It was a breeze to install, and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. Within no time, I had everything up and running, and I was ready to immerse myself in the world of high-quality audio. And immerse myself I did. Paired with my 150-inch screen and Formovie UST projector, the Nakamichi DRAGON system delivers an audio experience that rivals even the best theaters out there. The sound quality is simply stunning. From the deepest bass to the crispest highs, every note is reproduced with precision and clarity. It's like hearing my favorite movies and music for the first time all over again. But it's not just about the sound quality – the surround sound capabilities of this system are truly next-level. I feel like I'm right in the middle of the action, whether I'm watching a blockbuster movie or playing my favorite video game. The soundstage is expansive and immersive, pulling me deeper into whatever I'm watching or listening to. I've been showing off my home theater to all my friends and family, and without fail, the first thing they comment on is the incredible sound. It's become the centerpiece of my entertainment setup, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to upgrade. Overall, the Nakamichi DRAGON 11.4.6 Home Surround Sound System has exceeded all my expectations. It's transformed my home theater into a true audiovisual paradise, and I can't imagine ever going back to anything else. If you're serious about sound quality and immersive entertainment experiences, do yourself a favor and invest in this amazing system. You won't regret it.

This is a marvelous piece of engineering in the audio space. When I listen to my LG audio system it sounds good. But when I play the same in dragon I realize I have missed so many other lows and highs. And I have received so man compliments from my neighbors, friends and near&dear; they say it feels like we are watching in a theater…… I love my dragon……

The best sound ever!!!

Paired it with the Samsung QD-OLED via eARC and my gaming PC. It's been great so far. I retired the Q990C to the guest room. Nakamichi Dragon is simply on another level.

I have had the Dragon for about a 100 days now. The Device meets the expectations every time I watch the Movie/Play Music. I have been able to listen every details on the movies - which i previously never heard with my Bose Surround System. Highly recommended for someone who is in the market for the new and Updated Sound System. Customer Service has been great - For answering the Questions and resolving any outstanding issues.

Yes, it is really that amazing. As good or better than movie theater sound, especially for movies with Dolby Atmos. It is crazy expensive, but worth every penny and more. It is that good. Period.

The sound is amazing when I watch movies.. crystal clear and engulfing, at volume 15 I can hear the windows shaking.

I had experienced a few problems at the beginning and I can tell you that their VIP support is second to none. They will bend over backwards to make sure you are 110% satisfied. As far as the actual dragon is concerned once I got everything dialed in it blows me away that this is a sound bar. In my previous home I had a full surround system in-wall Triad speakers with a very powerful amp and I'm pretty impressed with how well the dragon sounds with movies and music in my new home. And my wife is happy because there's no speakers in the the walls and no wires running across the floor

I'm hearing new things in old song that I never heard before. So far I haven't found 1 thing I don't like about the dragon. And there's too many things I like to mention. Check it out for yourself and you'll understand what I'm talking about.

This is an awesome home theater system. I only wish that they had more mounting options for the surround speakers such as adjustable mounts. Other than that this is an amazing product that gives home theater quality in a budget price.

Very Good Customer Service. They will try their level best to resolve your issue related to your Dragon Sound System.

I appreciate B&H implementation of international shipping and guidance through the shipping and customs process. The process started on 8 Feb when I placed the order. On 16 Feb the Dragon was shipped to the UK. Three days later the Dragon was up and running. The Dragon arrived without any damage in a box weighing 140 pounds. During the process B&H customer service and verification section politely answered any question I had and quickly corrected any problems. The Dragon is indeed remarkable. The quality of sound that emanates from the Dragon is a significant game-changer for me. Watching television presents a unique experience. Sound from movies and music permeates all around you. Once I turned around because I heard a door slam behind me, I was about to shout at my wife. However, upon realizing it was the Dragon, I realized this is the best soundbar I have ever owned. Thank you, B&H, for making my dreams come true.

International shipping at last! DHL shipped the very heavy box and the contents arrived in perfect condition (box had a minor dent tho) Unpacking and set up was uneventful even though it took a lot longer than the 10 mins claimed by some reviewers. This replaced a Denon based AVR system that had 3 front, 2 upfiring, 2 surround and a subwoofer. I used the custom set up which used room dimensions and speaker placements. Sound was very good easily better than my previous system. The surround bubble was cohesive and stable even when you're not sitting in the sweet spot. Speech clarity was excellent. Bass was balanced but bass fiends may want to dial up the bass settings for more punch. Blu Ray player initially had no picture but the quick reply from the Nakamichi help Whatsapp site was to disable the Video Upscaling. While the Nakamichi was great for movies, certain music genres did not fare so well. Vocals and pop music was ok but large orchestral pieces and classicals came off being a little harsh even with tweaking the different pre-settings. I also have a little known high end sound bar from Creative Technology previously nicknamed Sound bar of the Gods. It actually cost pretty much the same as the Dragon. I think music is better but it loses out to the Dragon for the Surround Sound Staging and being quite a few years old, lacks many of the modern features of the Dragon. Nakamichi Dragon. A product worthy of the Dragon mantle.

Wow! Big difference from the Nakamichi 7.2.4 Elite that I had before the Dragon. every loud, have not passed volume 20. I have a big open living room and it covers it all. The highest, mids, and lows are great.

So far the product is fantastic. I received on subwoofer broken. Depending how quickly they handle the replacement will affect my rating. This is for bedroom set up. I have HT with B&W diamonds and RELS. I will give comparison after Dragon subwoofer rectified. I'm a high end audio guy but so far the Dragon seems VERY promising

It's big and loud. It's bumps my old av system off the wall. I was very skeptical, I mean wondering if I had made the right decision considering the price tag but so far I've had my Dragon since January and it's the end of February so about 2 months. No regrets at all. It's fun to run new movies with the all the sweet sound effects, old movies that always sounded pretty good hit harder and listening to music. I literally have to demo it for everyone who comes over and have never heard of the thing. I looked at everything (everything)and made my decision and I don't regret it. I'm happy, wife is happy and I don't know anyone else who has one so for now I'm on a bit of a pink cloud.

Ive had many surround sound systems over the years and all have sounded good, but the Dragon is by far the best system Ive owned in 35yrs, its a plug and play setup with plenty of adjustments to dial in the desired experience level to the listener. It has my pup occasionally looking up at the ceiling to see what is there, btw we live in a one story! I feel it was money well spent and will be the last sound system i buy.

Just get it! Plug it in and sit back for a true awesome experience. I have not been able to turn it up past 30 as I think the house will shake to the ground.

Easy, clean set up. Sounds great! Instant home theater! You can't find a better system. If you can't tweak this to your liking, your doing something wrong.

Great sounding surround-sound system puts my old Bose sound bar to shame. Easy setup.

If you were in doubt about spending 4Grand don't be they were honest about this Dragon this thing is a beast if you looking for a wireless system look no further this is the one and I have had ceiling speakers the whole 9 yards and then some you will not be disappointed

I watched movies that I have seen before and it was like the first time the seeing them or should I said hearing them the sound is great!!!

Semplicemente impressionante la migliore soundbar e grazie a B&H per la spedizione internazionale veramente molto seri

In my opinion, the best sound bar system in the market

The best sound system ever

It was a big decision to buy this system, but I'm blown away by the sound intensity/quality, as are friends I show it off to!

The Dragon is expensive … but it's worth it. The two demos that play as part of the setup were pretty mind-blowing. Those obviously are flexing all capabilities, especially the use of the height speakers, but definitely prepares you for what the speakers can handle/produce. I've had a surround setup for a long time, but I have never become as immersed in movies as I do with this setup. Literally had put in a movie to test out the speakers with the intention of just watching the first 10 minutes or so … and was 30-40 minutes in before realizing I was still sitting there just taking it all in. Music sounds great on it also. I've been mainly using Apple Music for Dolby Atmos/Lossless - and I hear things in songs/albums I've listened to tons of times that I'd never noticed before. I'm still tweaking some of the settings for music though as I don't think I have it even quite where it needs to be to get maximum quality. Overall, I've never heard a home theater setup (especially as a soundbar setup) as good as it. No buyer's remorse at all.

So, the purchase and communication process was great. The Dragon system itself is amazing, I'm really enjoying it. However, I would say where it can be improved. The screws that came in the box are low quality, they look like they're made of plasticine. I broke 3 of them while trying to install side speakers in the wood studs.

Sound likes live music

It arrived extremely well packed and in good condition. Unpacking was simple. Setup took a little time but was not difficult. The system really thinks for itself but you need to do a little fine tuning to get it just the way you like it. The sound quality is so natural with incredible separation and immersion. Even CD's sounded great on this system. 4k DVDs were the most amazing but even regular broadcast and streaming sound was immersive. It is expensive and is for someone who really wants the best possible sound quality and is willing to pay for it. I am very happy to have been able to get the DRAGON, all the claims were true. I love it!!!

Received the dragon undamaged despite a cross county trip to the east coast. Set up was intuitive and quick. Maximum time was spent on getting the HDMI cables into the HDMI inputs. I am an old hand at audio and music reproduction is important to me. The Nakamichi DRAGON did not disappoint. Sound stage is accurate and the low end well rounded. No problems with video with good upscaling to 4K. I have already sold my AVR and do not miss it. All in all. Happy and satisfied with the purchase

I was blown away when i turned it on . Movies or music it is sweet to my ears.. And that was out of the box.

Fantastic for 85in tv and below. Sound is crisp, surround sound and atmos is par with an avr system. Cons is if you are planning to use this with a screen bigger than 85" it might not be as good due to sound bar lenght, it will not blend the sound with your screen.

This has been by far my best sound system I've ever owned!! This is not just a soundbar but an experience as well. I am glued to the couch now with my Dragon nowadays…lol

My Nakamichi Dragon provides a great home theater experience. What's not to like? Easy setup with nice calibration tools. Wireless. Really happy with performance of the up firing speakers. The sound is all encompassing. Very happy with my decision to purchase the Dragon.

Amazing sound didn't push at the max yet its so powerfull, never heared this quality voice and sound in my home with the other brands. watching a film or listening to music is beyonds my expectations...

Best surround sound system out there. Price little too high but you pay for what u get. Ps bed a little more bass

Fantastic. Hard to believe the sound you get for the money. Extremely impressed.

It's fantastic. Taken a couple weeks to properly find the right settings and placement but for a soundbar. You don't need anything better unless you're an insane audiophile. Me, I'm a half deaf metal head that played and went to too many metal shows so why the f#@& would I need a 30 thousand dollar sound system that is comparable. When this is basically plug and play. And volume really only needs to go up to 25 not 100...i can't imagine turning it to 100. I understand that range of volume allows the low volume to be just as clear which is amazing for night mode. If you have 4k... get it. You won't be disappointed.

Amazing Sound and awesome power. Very heavy carton box when delivered, everything survived undamaged, easy to setup other than accessing the HDMI connections at the back of the Dragon. Dolby Atmos Speaker Stands well made but very difficult to attach speaker mounting plate with supplied screws that are too close to the pedestal pole. The user interface graphics is rudimentary basic and could use a modern update, looks very early 2000's. The display on the Dragon is sufficient but too pixelated. Would be nice to have internet capability for firmware updates and access to Apple Air Play.

I sold all my equipment that I had from my home theater just so I could buy nakamichi dragon 11.4 6 I'm loving it

System is so easy to set up. Sounds are so amazing and so life like…glad I went with nakamichi…

Wanted to go from top quality wired system to wireless. Saw Caleb Denison' s review of the Dragon system and was blown away. My “in my room “ experience has matched that and more. The clarity of the midrange (voices especially), bass power and clarity of the subs, and the Dolby Atmos effects are unparalleled. They exceed my previous 9.1.4 system and it was excellent. Keep up the great work work Nakamichi!

Excellent exceeded far beyond my expectations. I Love it! I will be purchasing another system this year for my other home. Thank you Nakamichi great work. Cheers!!!

I love the system, the sound is every bit as good as a surroundsound, IMAX theater and easy to control. It's sized up the room exactly automatically. I did the manual and it was no better than the automatic setting just the best.

I absolutely love it sounds excellent I wish I had another one for my other room but when I cut it on my on the LG TV comes up Sony on my question is what type of what brand of drivers do you have inside

Blown away out of the box set-up because I haven't had time to tune in can't wait find that Time 😀 but sounds unbelievable 😳 cannot say enough about the sound bar is amazing 👏 😀 every time I turn it on it amazes me and all my family and friends 😀.

This is the best sound system I have ever had. I have had many. Must systems the rear sound wasn't quite there. This system has all the effects regardless if it's turned down low, you will still get the full sound effect, as if it's turned up high. My system came out of the box flawless.

Extraordinary product. Provides a true cinematic experience. Music reproduction is also first rate. I could not be more please with the purchase.

Best choice i made, little pricey but worth every penny. Attention to detail and easy set up is the best in my opinion in the industry. Phone app works great . Love it , looks great below my 83inch Sony OLED . By the way HDMI/ ARC connection works seamlessly .

Impressive sound! When I first got the soundbar, subs and satellite speakers installed I was at first a little underwhelmed. I then proceeded to measure all positions of speakers with a laser measuring tool then I set the sound levels with a sound meter and they sounded a bit better but I was still not completely taken by the dragon, but then I proceeded to play music all day for a week or so to see if they needed to be broken in a bit. To my surprise this drastically improved the sound especially in the subs blending with the soundstage. The Dragon soundbar has impressive clarity and impact while watching movies, my preference for movies is Dolby Surround, Movie 2, AHD set to Max. For music depending on type and format the Studio setting with Music 1,2,3 really has an impact and strength to it. One of the best aspects of the Dragon soundbar is the app for quick on the fly setting changes that are intuitive and the ease and speed let you demo all the different sound signatures and eq changes instantly and I love that. The onscreen menu to go even further into refinement of sound is excellent. I was looking for a system with power and sound quality that kept a minimalist look clean and clutter free and bonus was how easy the setup was. The speaker stands are a must. I got all the accessories but found myself not using the soundbar wall mount and for my particular setup with 10 foot screen and short throw projector I found a pair of 9x6x3 black foam yoga blocks a better solution that paired perfectly with LG HU85LA laser projector hiding all the wires and being a perfect height to just be above the projector and below the screen. I have waited a few months to really get the feel of this before I submit my review to give my honest opinion and this thing rocks I love it. The quad subwoofers are interesting and depending what kind of music your listening to I found that turning off a different number and combination really brought various music genres to life, but for movies I alway keep all 4 on.

I only use it with movies but dialogue is crystal clear and with a good DTS or atmos soundtrack it works beautifully.

So far the sound bar up to dated .diid not disappoint compare to my previous samsung sound bar .a bit expensive but as the saying goes you pay for what you get .just a bit disappointing when i notice made in China instead of Japan .

I prefer the Dragon over my Denon surround, no **** wires and no overheating. I keep it at low volume otherwise the house rattles

AWESOME!!! It was definitely worth the wait!!!

10/10. I cannot give you an in depth review like Caleb Denison, but I can share my wonderful experience from a Joe shmoe guy. The dragon has been delightful, in every way imaginable. Spend. The. Money. It is incredible. I show the dragon off to anyone who is willing to listen lol. I had the old 9.2.4 Ultra soundwafe from Nakamichi. The dragon made it sound like a piece of trash. Please please please, if you are on the fence do it. Transform your entire house into a theater! I love Nakamichi!

its the best. i can finally enjoy surround sound and atmos. i leave in new zealand and the dragon got delivered without a scratch

The Dragon is proving to be very interesting. There are some scenes from some movies which it renders in spectacular fashion. But I am slowly coming to realize that its real strength is much more subtle. I often find, after a movie, that I have not noticed that there is a sound system involved in the process. It is completely transparent. That has never been the case with any sound equipment I've ever had. Really interesting.

Don't pass on the opportunity to enhance your entertainment space with the Dragon as you will not be disappointed. I purchased the Dragon after owning a 7.1.4 Onkyo AVR setup, as I got tired of all the wires running down or across side walls, wires getting in the way of vacuums or kids, and speakers everywhere that were in the way of myself walking and kids playing activities. At the end of the day my old AVR sound system consumed the entire living space, and was just an eyesore, so me and my family needed a change, a better way. With the Dragon we found a better way and an ideal solution to replace the AVR eyesore. However we were in for a shock at how loud, clear, and powerful the Dragon is, and how much our movie watching experience improved. My normal listening volume is about 15-20 for 4K Movies. However, The dragon really needs a disclaimer as to how loud it can get because trust me, when I first connected everything, and ran the built in sound demos, I didn't check the default startup volume for the system out the box, and it was so loud that it woke up every one the house trying to figure out what the heck was happening with the walls shaking and sound of a jets flying. Overall, I think this system is ear candy for yourself and your family. I get excited when I watch new Dolby Atmos and new DTS X content, but I also enjoy rewatching older movies to hear the upmix and to hear any details I might have missed with my prior system. PS - Please add a startup max volume and system max volume to the firmware settings because this Dragon beast can get dangerously loud in the wrong hands

I missed out on the first allocation while in Amsterdam and then woke up at 2.00am in Sydney to ensure I got the second. I had to courier the Dragon from Phoenix to Sydney. The Dragon replaced my Sony 7.1.2ch Dolby Atmos HT-A7000 system. It is worth every dollar. So far the police has not knocked at my door for noise disturbance!

All in all, the buying experience, delivery, ease of setup, has been 100% positive!! I don't have the rear speakers mounted yet, so they are setting adjacent to the main but still sound amazing! I'm sure once I come up with a mounting solution for the rear speakers, I'll be even more impressed!! AMAZING!!

The sound is amazing and I love it. It has deep base in it right on point. It's very powerful. The sound is so loud that I can only put the volume up to 20 comfortably. if you are looking for a system that can really put out sound, then the dragon is for you the sound does not distort at all

I love this beast! Surround sound is uncompromisingly excellent despite where it sits our large living room space! I enjoy both movies and music through this Dragon. My friends who were not familiar with the Dragon are equally impressed and are not in the process of purchasing their own. I highly recommend this system!

I waited patiently for this soundbar and I am extremely satisfied with the outcome. Surround experience is outstanding, exceeding my expectations. Truly satisfied with my purchase and I'm looking forward to experiencing all my movie collection on a different level.

Without a doubt, The Dragon is a piece of art, due to it's engineering and arquitecture. In addition, it has the power and precision of the right sound, to become the most complete Home Theater, without complexities. Excellent in every sense of the word!

The quality and performance is second to none 7 years ago I found out that Nakimichi made a soundbar and because of my high expectation to them I did not have to check their reviews about it before I got my own. A year ago I heard that Nakamichi are making a new soundbar named "DRAGON" been trying to get one and finally I got my order, once again I am not disappointed, above all their customer service is second to none for me.

Nakamichi Dragon 1.4.6 is just a masterpiece, every sound that comes out of it is pure pleasure. I use it with my Computer that has a 4090 and it works perfectly with windows 11. Gaming with the Dragon is just mind blowing. I also use the NVIDIA Shield to stream the best audio quality possible. Every member of my family has been impressed with it. Recommended 100%. I hope they keep updating the software to fix small bugs and keep improving.

"I received my dragon in great condition back in November and have been putting it through its paces, testing different sources. I can now confidently conclude that there will be no 'Return to sender.' I'm keeping this beast. I previously had a Denon 7.1 AVR setup with Definitive Tech speakers and a Klipsch down-firing sub. However, in April 2023, I decided it was time to 'Simplify' things. I began reviewing various soundbars to replace my 10-year-old AVR system. Many caught my interest, but I ultimately settled on the Sony HT-A7000 7.1.2 soundbar with rears and a sub. Although the Sony was good, it didn't meet my expectations. While the 360 spatial sound impressed, the center channel was thin, underwhelming, and lacking. Coincidentally, I stumbled upon a YouTube video featuring the dragon at CES and became curious if this could be the solution. After extensive research on forums, I decided to take the $3800 plunge. Verdict: 1. The dragon is exactly what I was looking for and has officially replaced my AVR system (which is now packed and up for sale). 2. The Sony HT-A7000 7.1.2 was no match for the dragon and has been relocated to the master bedroom. I could continue to rave about the dragon and how much I'm enjoying this fiery beast of a soundbar system. However, I'll simply conclude by saying: take the plunge. Don't listen to naysayers. Get it, try it for yourself, and you'll be pleased."

As a soundbar its very good for movies and sports. the Nakamichi has deeper bass than my Sonos arc soundbar with one sub and sonos one gen 2 speakers and a bit more dynamic range.

Cleanest sounding soundbar I have ever listened to! Super easy to use and setup was a breeze. Very impressed with the sound imaging-very convincing that speakers are above me and sides. Sounds a lot cleaner than Martin Logan bar & our Definite technology bar setup. Only areas needing improvement are- more bass for some situations and music. Bass response is clean just feel like they are turned down some even when volume for bass is maxed at lvl 10. Aslo a quicker processer as little sluggish during startup and switching hdmi's.

Clean audio with exceptional Movies and Gaming. Issues with switching between XBox and other things. Overall I would say buy this system because there isn't anything as good on the market.

I am not a professional, but so far, the experience has been phenomenal. Strong base with clear concise mid and tribble. Surround sound brings out the virtual reality to life.

Works well for movies and TV. Very clear and precise.

Everything is brought to life with this amazing home theater system. Watching native atmos movies is fun to ears.

Although I haven't been able to discover all of the correct settings for my area, the Dragon is the best surround sound system ever. It's actually too much for my space but I love it, and the customer service has been the best as well. Immediate replies when asked for advice or had questions.

I have only had a chance to try it with movies. The spoken words are very crisp and clear. The power of the bass never disappoints to put a smile on my face. It truly does sound like the growl of a dragon and surround sound gives me the creeps in horror movies as it catches me off guard, tricking my brain into thinking there is something behind me. I am absolutely in love.

This is the jewel in the crown in all settings. I think you could put this in a gutted house, and it would still make you think you were in a hi end movie theater.

Well after putting in the measurement of my speakers and there placement to us tand to other speaker it came out amazing.
