Enhance your display's audio with the Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 eARC 1300W Soundbar System.

This soundbar system has Bluetooth connectivity for pairing with your compatible smart device and wirelessly streaming your audio content. Its wired connections include optical, digital coaxial, 3.5mm, and three HDMI inputs to support a variety of source types. Its HDMI output is eARC-compatible, so you can hear display-based audio from built-in apps like Netflix and YouTube.

These custom-designed drivers used in the soundbar and all four surround speakers feature dual speaker cones that reproduce mids and highs independently for improved dynamic range, better accuracy, and full-bodied dialogue.
Silk Dome Surround Effects Tweeters
These tweeters, installed in the soundbar and all four surround speakers, help produce a wider, more natural soundstage.

I own this surround system. However, the 33' cable running from subwoofer to surround speaker is not long enough. I need about 50'. What is your recommendation?
Asked by: Karen
The connection from the subwoofer to the surround speakers is RCA. So you can use a 50' RCA cable like BH #KOVARC450 to establish that connection.

Asked by: Steven
The Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 eARC 1300W Soundbar System (B&H # NASWU924M) should ideally be connected to audio via HDMI eARC to use full Dolby Atmos or DTS functionality. Optical and 3.5mm connections can only support up to 5.1-channel and stereo configurations.

I can either hook this sytem to my TV with HDMI or Optical cable. Which is better?
Asked by: Peter
The Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 eARC 1300W Soundbar System BH #NASWU924M will have the option of both HDMI eARC or Optical TOSLINK. Both are great options, however using HDMI eARC makes it that you will only need the one cable for both video and audio.
