Our Verdict

Nakamichi Shockwafe Pro 7.1 SSE

Samsung HW-Q900A

The Samsung HW-Q900A is better than the Nakamichi Shockwafe Pro 7.1 SSE. The Samsung soundbar supports eARC, and it has more sound enhancement features like room correction and a graphic EQ. Plus, its sound profile is more neutral out-of-the-box, especially compared to the Nakamichi's boomy, bass-heavy sound. You can customize the Nakamichi if you want, though. It's also better-built, with a better surrounds performance thanks to its discrete satellites.
