Nakamichi DRAGON With Quad 12" Subwoofers
Nakamichi DRAGON With Quad 12" Subwoofers

Nakamichi elevates its DRAGON line with the introduction of the 12" subwoofer expansion, redefining bass standards for plug-and-play home theater systems. The 80-pound beast, packing a long-throw 12" carbon fiber-reinforced aluminum driver and a 12" carbon passive radiator, delivers up to 750 watts of sonic boom.

The updated flagship DRAGON system, now armed with four 12" subwoofers, unleashes tidal waves of bass energy that will leave even the most die-hard low-frequency aficionados in awe.

DRAGON's alternative subwoofer configurations include dual enclosures featuring either 12" drivers or dual-opposing 8" drivers. Additionally, modular expansion options enable customers to mix and match up to four subwoofer cabinets with their systems.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- THE UNDISPUTED KING OF PLUG-AND-PLAY HOME THEATER

To date, the Nakamichi DRAGON 11.4.6 remains the world's most ambitious plug-and-play wireless surround sound system, featuring 21 channels, 15 digital amplifiers, wireless quad subwoofers, 6 upfiring speakers, and a pair of Omni-Motion Reference Surrounds. It supports Dolby Atmos and is the world's first wireless system to be equipped with DTS:X® Pro technology, rendering object-based surround content in identical detail and precision that rivals flagship audio video receivers in the industry.

This sophisticated subwoofer delivers intricate basslines and explosive power by integrating elite acoustic materials with precision-engineered drivers and a robust cabinet. It performs at unparalleled depths as low as 19Hz, with a seismic intensity that transforms how you experience sound.

Having earned a near-perfect owners' rating, the DRAGON system has consistently amazed home audio enthusiasts with performance that is in a league of its own. With the design of a sleek, integrated unit and the acoustic performance of a traditional home theater setup, the system redefines the future of home entertainment by merging world-class audio with effortless simplicity.

This distinction reaches new heights with the launch of the DRAGON 12" subwoofer.

CUSTOMER-FIRST DESIGN AND INNOVATION

The release of the 12" subwoofer is a testament to Nakamichi's commitment to redefining audio expectations for our devoted followers who have supported Nakamichi throughout the years.

Nakamichi recognized the desire among current DRAGON owners for bass that shatters the limitations of plug-and-play cinema systems. To gain deeper insights, the Nakamichi team conducted a survey to explore the preferred bass configurations of owners and fans.

Survey findings:

  • 67% of respondents prefer a subwoofer with a 12" or larger driver.
  • 41% prefer having 3 or more subwoofers in their room.

"The proof is in the pudding: DRAGON owners crave bass intensity that matches the benchmarks set by dedicated high-end home theater setups. This fueled our determination to develop a 12" subwoofer that would push DRAGON beyond the perceived limitations of plug-and-play home entertainment," said Nakamichi USA CEO Rayman Cheng.

"Our 12" subwoofer doesn't just emit bass—it releases cataclysmic rumbles with thundering subsonic energy, unlocking a new dimension to your favorite content. We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved, and eagerly await our fans' experience with this sonic gem."

BASS REINVENTED: SURPASSING BOUNDARIES OF WIRELESS HOME ENTERTAINMENT

Epitomizing the DRAGON line's legacy of innovation, the DRAGON 12" subwoofer transcends traditional audio engineering conventions. This elegant heavyweight delivers intricate basslines and explosive power by integrating premium acoustic materials with precision-engineered drivers. Its high-performance design, often found in subwoofers at significantly higher price points, delivers unparalleled depths as low as 19Hz, and clarity that will holistically transform your audio experience.

  • 12" Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Aluminum Driver

The star of the show is the 12" driver, which boasts a lightweight and durable aerospace-grade aluminum cone. The aluminum construction maximizes the subwoofer cone's sensitivity and responsiveness, allowing it to accurately reproduce mid-bass and extreme low-frequency effects with authority, just like in your local Dolby Atmos theater.

To generate precise yet authoritative deep bass, a wafer-thin layer of carbon fiber is laminated to the back of the subwoofer's aluminum cone. This premium material's high stiffness-to-weight ratio makes it the perfect damping counterpart for the driver to embrace impactful and instantaneous pulses without unwanted resonance.

  • 12" Carbon Passive Radiator

The same subwoofer enclosure houses a meticulously calibrated long-throw 12" passive radiator. This radiator sports a carbon-infused cone, enhancing its rigidity for impeccable bass precision. Engineered for unrivaled linear excursion, it seamlessly converts air movements produced by the subwoofer into powerful and lifelike sonic reverberations. This ensures an immersive listening journey with deeper bass frequencies, even at reference-level playback volumes. With its down-firing projection, the subwoofer sends bass waves rippling throughout the whole theater space, amplifying tactile bass sensations.

Harnessing the synergy of the powerful front-firing driver and the down-firing passive radiator, this 12" subwoofer extends its low-frequency output to an astonishing 19Hz. What emerges is an omnidirectional bass panorama, packed with authentic musical tones and deep, enveloping low-frequency effects, effortlessly complementing the pristine audio output of the other DRAGON system components.

TAILORED CONFIGURATIONS FOR EVERY HOME

The 12" subwoofer enables new system setups and modular configurations, ensuring flexibility and compatibility with various listening environments and preferences.
