	Stereophile: Nakamichi Seeks Protection
		On November 19, Nakamichi Corporation Japan "applied to the court of Japan for a civil rehabilitation," in the words of a company press release on the development, issued the next day.
		Nakamichi also contributed to progress in CD technology in the 1980s and early 1990s, with innovative designs in changer mechanisms.
		Nakamichi Japan had been primarily owned by the Nakamichi family until January of 1997, when it was acquired by Grande Holdings, a Chinese conglomerate with diverse interests and operations throughout the world.

		Product evaluations are based on weighted criteria: value to user, aesthetics, contributions to the quality of life as well as the product's innovative qualities.
		To complement the ultimate in digital-to-analog conversion accuracy, a high-resolution preamplifier circuit topology was developed to achieve ultra low-noise and distortion levels and a highly linear signal transmission to the powerful and dynamic 47 W x 4 channel power amplifier.
		Additionally, triple-band tone controls, a Nakamichi tradition, are included to allow for fine-tuning the bass, midrange and high frequency ranges - essential for the corrective compensation of the poor acoustics in automobile interiors or source program material.

	Nakamichi at AllExperts
		Nakamichi is a Japanese manufacturer founded by Etsuro Nakamichi (affectionally known as "the Dragon") and later headed by his sons, Ted and Niro.
		Nakamichi pushed live recording with their Nakamichi 550, a portable cassette recorder that had three microphone inputs: one for left channel, one for right channel, and one for a center blend channel.
		These components were intended to establish Nakamichi's dominance in the field of digital audio tape, and DAT was not widely adopted by audiophiles, as the format itself did not gain acceptance as an industry standard.

	TechnoFILE Looks at Nakamichi's AV-10 A/V Receiver (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Nakamichi uses "advanced 24-bit digital signal processing" and "highly linear 20-bit digital to analog converters", which helps ensure that what goes in as signal comes out again as sound.
		Nakamichi says its power amplifiers use the company's "Harmonic Time Alignment (HTA) technology," (a method it says maintains the correct timing relationship between a signal and its distortion components) to achieve natural, "untiring" musical reproduction.
		Nakamichi's Dolby Pro-Logic circuitry is enhanced ("ambient synthesis") as well so, while it ain't digital stereo surround, it's still very good - and you get "natural" and "hall" modes that let you "tweak" the sound to your taste (or room).

	TechnoFILE Looks at Nakamichi's IA-Tz amplifier (Site not responding. Last check: )
		To sweeten the deal, Nakamichi throws in two optical and three coaxial digital inputs, one of which is meant to take the output from an AC-3 decoder-equipped laserdisc player.
		Nakamichi says it aligns the primary signal (the good stuff you want to hear) with the harmonic distortion so it all arrives at your ears simultaneously, which they say makes the overall sound quality much more pleasant.
		Nakamichi says it's only a problem with AC-3-encoded discs (DTS ones, it says, are automatically sensed - and I'll have to take their word for it 'cause I forgot to check with our DTS discs before sending the unit back!), but most DVD's come with AC-3 audio, not DTS, so this isn't much consolation.
