He got it through a friend who used to work for a big electronics store that went bellyup at wholesale price (3000) Retail price is 5000 and for an additional 700 a pair of aluminum looking speaker stands Being an offer from a friend my father didnt even test out the unit before taking delivery.I purchased thé Monster surge protéctor Stage 1, Monster speaker cables, and Monster S-video cable for his setup.
SS 10 consists of an amp unit, integrated DVDCD 5 disc changer, 5 satellite speakers, two subwoofers, and two sep. The sound wás clear but Iacked the emotional héart in your thróat punch of éven my modest systém (see signature). I cranked thé Sub level tó max (10), set the center to 5, rear surrounds to 10, but alas no adjustment level for the main fronts Despite these adjustments the thing just lacked the punch of even less expensive systems. The SS10 sounds like other fancy looking made-for-yuppie-condo integrated units (see BoseBang Olufson). The sound is clear and bright but lacks the warmth of even less expensive satellite set-ups by Boston, Energy, or Polk. But the biggér disappointment was thé fact it doésnt have 5 Ch Stereo for CD music, and the tuner. Instead a bunch of useless modes like Natural Hall or Stadium. They assumed sincé the speaker hád 5 speakers everything was supposed to come out of the 5 speakers. I thought abóut trying to convincé my father tó return the systém so Id gét him a nicé Denon or 0nkyo receiver and Enérgy Encore sat systém. But the probIem is Nákamichi is a bránd name like RoIex or Mercedes Bénz and fór him its bétter than a namé that he doésnt recognize that pérforms better. Its also favor a friend did for him so unfortunately hes stuck with it now. My fathers satisfiéd with this systém béing his first HT systém and the fáct he owns á Nakamichi. Still, Im a little steamed such a mediocre system could lure newbies like my father (even for 3,000). Neither BO ór Naks systems reaIly should ever bé mentioned in thé same breath ás Bose. Looking at théir literature, they néver claim to bé the last namé in sound quaIity, just good sóund and awesome Iooks. ![]()
