Shockwafe Wireless features a total of 6 up-firing Punktkilde drivers, plus a pair of up-firing Punktkilde tweeters on the soundbar. Combined with Nakamichi's proprietary Adaptive Height Dispersion (AHD) technology, listeners can enjoy immersive height performance with enhanced positional accuracy. The system also introduces the AHD Ultra mode, which delivers advanced spatial depth and dimensionality.
In addition, Shockwafe Wireless renders audio in 11.2.6 channels, versus the Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 eARC (which renders in 9.2.4 audio channels). The dual subwoofers have also been reworked from the ground up, featuring 10" Punktkilde drivers for deeper, more impactful bass that adds depth to the overall Dolby Atmos experience.
AHD technology works with the 6 discrete height channels to render vertical and overhead sound objects at accurate elevation levels to give the audience the true perception of a multi-altitude space.
