Click For Price

All three components are packed with performance! The main unit houses an excellent CD player, a first-rate AM/FM Stereo tuner, and all the electronics needed to run the system. Loading CDs is accomplished by the push of a button, which tilts the face of the main unit forward revealing the disc drive mechanism. Each speaker wing contains an 8-cm bass/midrange driver and a 2.5-cm semi-dome tweeter in a skillfully designed 2-way bass-reflex system that elicits optimum performance from each element.

SoundSpace 1 has remarkable functionality: Bass, Treble and Midrange controls to tailor the sound to your liking, a Loudness circuit to compensate for the loss in high- and low-frequencies when you listen at low levels, even a headphone output and an alarm timer with snooze function! SoundSpace 1 can be fed from an external source. For example, the audio signal from a television, cassette deck, MiniDisc player or the like and the SoundSpace 1 can copy broadcasts and CDs to an external recorder. Analog and digital outputs are provided so CDs transfer perfectly to a digital recorder.

SoundSpace 1's electronics are extraordinary! Its dual 1-bit D/A converters and 8X-oversampled digital filter are more typical of high-end audiophile gear than a music system of this genre, and each speaker's own dedicated power amplifier has been carefully matched for optimum performance. All the controls you need to operate the system lie atop the central unit but you can operate the system equally well from the stylish remote control provided with it. SoundSpace 1...wherever and whenever you need Nakamichi sound and Nakamichi looks...in miniature!

SoundSpace 1's main unit and speaker system can be wall-mounted.
All control functions are logically grouped along the top of the SoundSpace 1's main unit.
Loading CDs is accomplished by the push of a button, which tilts the face of the main unit forward revealing the disc drive mechanism
SoundSpace 1 includes a unique tabletop stand that angles the speakers for best sound propagation
