@@uptownsfinest1598 OK this is where I am confused, I too have a CX and will be getting a series X, I was about to pas on this because it is not Earc and he tv is, are we sacrificing anything by getting an arc only sound bar vs an earc capable sound bar like the Vizio elevate or other lg and sonos bars? How do you connect this properly and is there a downside? Will I get atmos and surround from WebOs apps as well as the series x? Thanks for any answers on this, Im ust confused Ive never used a sound bar before, and I wan to find something with subs and speakers like this, BUT I am confised about the earc and arc limitations and how that affects the audio and decoding the various audio formats.
@THATGUYTALKSMOVIES3 жыл бұрын
@Matt Pipke If the tv has eARC (the CX does I believe. I have a C9 and it does.) , then you're fine _. The connections are just different. Here's an answer I received directly from Nakamichi when inquiring about_ the same: " _*The reason we suggest connecting everything to the TV is that you have a 2019 LG C9 that has eARC (99.999% of the TVs do not have that). eARC can pass thru Dolby Atmos or DTSX directly to the soundbar. Other customers who do not have eARC will have to connect all the devices directly to the soundbar."* _ Hope that helped.

Dude - The CX is a beautiful TV. I got so F****** lucky and managed to buy one a 77” LG in the box for $610 3 days ago and I creamed my pants when I got it home and it’s hooked up and ready to use. I purchased a vendor return item in a auction and saw the TV to bid on. It was in perfect condition , still in box , has the styrofoam , the plastic bags for the remote and everything! So I went for it and got it for $610!! The 77” CX OLED by LG was $3200 new and I absolutely fell in love with the picture and design of this tv !

You nailed this review. I bought this system but the newer 2023 version. The Dolby atmos doesn’t work well because the system doesn’t fire off the ceiling because it doesn’t have independent up firing speakers. Also, the system just sucks at music. The sound is poor. My Jbl blows this system out of the water with better Dolby atmos, musical quality, and a subwoofer that blends the sound of the bass with the rest of the system rather than just having two thump cannons as side tables. Not to mention my nakamichi was defective from day one and took forever to get repaired and returned. I’ll rather upgrade to newest Jbl 1300x or the Samsung 990c.

I have questions Not being Earc capable, I have an LG Cx and will add a Series x to it, will this Nakamichi be able to deliver the audio properly based on the tv and xbx capabilities or am I limited due to the sound bar being arc only? I love the idea of the 7.1, a 9.2 is too much for my space, honestly 7.2 is a lot also, I just wanted a 5.2 but this sound bar with 2 subs grabbed my attention, I think there is a way to pair the satellite speakers on one stand to minimize the footprint, I really only have room for two rear stands. But im also looking at others with a sub and 2 rears that are EARC capable, like the Vizio elevate and I am going to check the LG and Sonos too. I just want an enhanced audio solution for now until they make a receiver that is hdmi 2.1 capable. Should I just ignore any system that is arc only and look at Earc devices only for best results and compatibility?

Happy new year and big thx for your videos... I have questions regarding digital sound out on LG TV. I heard that Auto is for ARC and pass through is for eARC. I've a budget LG tv (UN7300) with a standard HDMI ARC but I've have both options (auto/pass through) 1/ what's the point of having pass through option since my tv don't support eARC? 2/ what's the difference between both options (I mean what auto really do and what pass through do)? 3/ I have the JBL Bar 5.1 (with real surround speakers which support PCM/LPCM, AC3 and DTS) I know that my tv don't support DTS as all LG TVs of 2020 and ARC pass through don't support LPCM so the only option I've is Dolby digital and am wondering if auto is the right choice rather than using passthrough!? PS: I can detect a difference between both options; when auto is selected surround speakers are a bit louder when pass through is selected the front speakers (from soundbar) are a bit louder and surround speakers are less louder. Plz help auto or passthrough which is the most accurate in my case and what's the difference between both.

If you're a fan of the poetry named after your city, there's a terrible/hilarious Limerick about the man from St James (involves his grandmother and a match, bodily functions, etc. - you could probably Google it but be forewarned!) Cheers from a Scot-blood in Texas~

I was really surprised with the poor customer service from Nakamichi. I was VERY disappointed they removed my negative feedback on Ebay. It's flat out unethical for them to present themselves with "100 pct positive feed back" They sent me a broken unit, then the wrong part, didn't know what state I'm in, and did a poor job communicating with UPS when the package was late. I spent hours trouble shooting things that were not my fault;I specifically bought this system for ease of set up. Then they wouldn't let me return it without the box, and even if I did have it, they wanted to charge me shipping.

so you're saying this would be a better choice for home cinema setups than, say, Sonos Arc? Seems to be reasonably priced in the Pro 7.2 configuration that also supports Atmos. Well, I'm torn between Arc, 2x HomePod, this baby and one of Sony's soundbars.

Hey Jonah could you say more about the setup? Where did you get the stands on which the speakers were mounted? You did not state that they come with the speakers.

It's the Sonos for me. 2 b years ago my sister and brother-in-law got me a Sonos beam and I really like it. I have added 2 Sonos ones and will upgrade to the arch and sub early next year.

I am interested in the Shockwafe but I have not got a feel for how it does with music. I plan on downsizing to a smaller home and replacing my Denon/SVS 5.1 system with a wireless system. I know that a soundbar can’t match it but music is important to me. How is it on music playback?

Hi Jonah, thank you for your review. I would have liked to know how this would perform with next gen gaming consoles, although I understand that they are currently somewhat difficult to obtain for some people. In particular to the ability that these consoles have (when supported) regarding 4K120fps/Hz and HDMI 2.1 that is then required. I think I saw this system only passes through 4K60Hz. Maybe you have gotten some experience in the meantime and I’d like to hear your take on it what you then did regarding the options you then had. I have been eyeing this system for a while now, but I do have a pretty high vaulted ceiling. Do you have any suggestions for me as being mainly a console gamer who also likes to watch movies and who listens to some music? Much appreciated, thanks!
