Nakamichi NDS4610A-II DSP processor amplifier

The Nakamichi NDS4610A-II is a four-channel amplifier with an honest output of 4 x 25 W RMS and a built-in 6-channel DSP processor. This product stands out in particular with the easy possibility to upgrade the factory car radio, increase the power for the speakers and fine-tune the sound on the DSP processor. The built-in amplifier is not primarily of high power and will therefore provide the speakers with "only" similar power to a branded aftermarket car radio. However, thanks to the wide range of settings, it will raise the sound and performance compared to the factory head unit to a completely different level. If necessary, you can use the Nakamichi NDS4610A-II as a full-fledged DSP processor and complete the system with a more powerful amplifier. With the NDS4610A-II, Nakamichi perfectly demonstrates its focus on high quality with a strong emphasis on ease of use. The very intuitive program of the DSP processor can be set by almost any skilled user, and there is even a mobile application for easy settings on a mobile phone. Perhaps the biggest advantage of this amplifier with a DSP processor is the possibility to completely bypass the low-sounding factory main unit and stream music directly to the amplifier thanks to the bluetooth module. The chassis of the amplifier made of brushed aluminum and top-quality workmanship only underline the exclusivity of this product.

About the Nakamichi brand

The history of the Nakamichi brand dates back to 1948, when it was founded in Japan by Etsuro Nakamichi. The journey to fulfilling his dreams began with the establishment of a small research institute, Nakamichi Research Corporation, in Tokyo, Japan, providing sonar and magnet research and development for major brands, government entities, universities and organizations. Since then, it has established itself as a trusted creator of high-quality products that are the result of intensive scientific work, a passion for sound and a commitment to uncompromising quality and performance. In 1972, Takeshi Nakamichi joined Nakamichi Corporation, who was associated with the company's boom at the time and was deeply involved in all of Nakamichi's legendary audio products sold in Asia, America and Europe, including the first launch of the Nakamichi 1000, the world's first cassette tape recorder. He was regarded as one of the world's best acoustic and sound engineers, who was able to combine high-end sound with the genius audio product design strengths of Mr. Koza Kobayashi, the brand's chief engineer at the time. Amplifiers, players, and even car radios of that time are now among the legends for their unsurpassed quality. However, the Nakamichi brand is still successful today and produces high-quality products not only in the field of home audio, but also in vehicles. The ingeniously thought-out portfolio of the manufacturer is constantly growing, and practically all products stand out for their high-quality sound and incredible processing in the given price category. The legacy of Etsuro Nakamichi lives on and we are glad that it is not only a sound name, but also reflected in the quality of Nakamichi products.

Number of amplifier channelsAmplifiers are divided into:
- Monoblocks
- 2-channel
- 3-channel
- 4-channel
- 5-channel
- 6-channel
- multi-channel

Each channel is used to power one speaker for the coaxial type, or one side if they are component speakers.

Monoblock type amplifiers are mainly used for subwoofers.

2-channel are suitable for both subwoofers and, for example, the front pair of speakers in a car.

3-channel is used for front or rear speakers + subwoofer.

4-channel are used for front + rear speakers or 1 pair of speakers + subwoofer.

6 or 5-channel are used for 2 pairs of speakers + subwoofer, most often.

Bridging means connecting the amplifier to a bridge, using the + pole from one channel and the - pole from the other channel. In most cases this is shown as "BRIDGED" on the amplifier.

Energy class of the amplifierAmplifiers are divided into two basic classes: analog and digital . Analog amplifiers (A/B) have higher consumption requirements, but usually have a more natural sound. Digital amplifiers (D) have significantly lower consumption and higher efficiency, but the sound may not be as faithful as with classic analog amplifiers. D
RMS power into 4 ΩRMS power when loading speakers or subwoofer at 4 Ω. RMS power is the constant power of the amplifier and is one of the most important parameters when choosing an amplifier. 4 x 25W
Max. (maximum) power at 4 ΩPeak performance "Max." , which the amplifier can develop for a very short time. A relatively unimportant parameter. It is mainly a marketing move to attract customers to high numbers. 4 x 50W
Frequency rangeThe ability of the amplifier to reproduce the signal from the lowest frequency to the highest = faithfully reproduce the sound in a specific frequency band.

Professionally:
In the frequency range from 40 to 16,000 Hz, the vast majority of fundamental and overtones (harmonics) of all musical instruments are found. We are interested in the course of the radiated sound pressure in this range of frequencies when the loudspeaker system is supplied with constant power. We call this course the frequency characteristic, which tells us the level of radiated sound pressure in decibels (dB) depending on the frequency. The frequency characteristic of a speaker or speaker system can be expressed most succinctly with a graph.

Mostly, however, the frequency characteristic is indicated by indicating the maximum tolerance of the sound pressure in the given frequency range, e.g. 50 to 15,000 Hz -+ 6 dB. Since the frequency characteristics of loudspeakers and systems in general are quite uneven, some manufacturers do not even specify this maximum tolerance of sound pressure in decibels in their catalogs for reasons of prestige. Data impoverished in this way is unfortunately worthless. What is valid is that the manufacturer offers a speaker system with a frequency range of 30 to 20,000 Hz, if he is worried about stating the maximum unevenness of the sound pressure in this range, because he can have a tolerance of, for example, +- 20 dB.

The unevenness or undulation of the frequency curve in good speaker systems for high-quality music performance should not exceed +-3 dB in the 80 to 12,000 Hz band and +-6 dB in the 40 to 16,000 Hz band. Greater unevenness already depletes or emphasizes certain tonal areas, which can cause audible or even disturbing distortion. The proportion between fundamental tones and higher harmonics also changes, thereby changing the color of the sound, and individual musical instruments as well as the entire musical image sound unnatural.
20 - 20000 Hz
Harmonic Distortion (THD)Total harmonic distortion indicates how much the input signal is distorted in the amplifier. Distortions appear as overtones contained in the output signal. The proportion of originally absent parts of the signal is given as a percentage, typical values are between 0.001% and 0.5%.

Distortion is measured in their power band. If it exceeds the limit of 0.7% from a certain power, it is the value of the output power of the given amplifier, from which it no longer plays without distortion and from which the distortion usually increases steeply, so that no further increase in power can be counted on. The lower the value, the better.
< 0.05%
Signal-to-noise ratioThe signal-to-noise ratio means that the output signal always contains noise. The signal-to-noise ratio expresses how much of this noise is compared to the useful signal. The so-called A value is given, which does not take deep and very high frequencies into account. This corresponds to the characteristic of human hearing, which is not so sensitive to deep frequencies, especially below 1 kHz. The higher the value, the better the amplifier is. > 90 dB
High level inputsThe high-level input on the amplifier allows connection directly to the existing speakers in the car without additional purchase of an external high/low adapter. Important equipment in the case of installing an amplifier on an original car radio. Yes
