ULTIMEA - Skywave X60

Looking good! Ummm, still more room for a larger tv! HAHA! I just got my Ultimea Skywave X70 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos dual up firing front & rear speakers w/10" Sub down to 20hz. Very happy with how it performs!

With the up firing front & rear speakers, The Skywave is really cool. I have the Skywave X60 which is the baby brother up on Ebay brand new untouched if anybody is interested for a nice price. 700 on Am... only 500 buy it now. The X60 is an 8" subwoofer instead of a 10" but still goes down to 28hz. Slightly less wattage, but everything else is all the same. It truly is a high end system at more budget pricing. It has Xupmix which will upgrade stereo & 5.1 for Atmos sound. These are a beast. [https://www.ebay.com/itm/277465478895](https://www.ebay.com/itm/277465478895)

I've tried 3 ultima systems in the past 8 or so months. A 5.1 a 7.1 and a 7.1.4. all 3 of them had really bad surround speaker volume. The best was the 7.1.4 but that's probably from the extra 2 upfiring channels in the back. The 5.1 and 7.1 both had an amazing subwoofer and bass as well as a great sound bar but before I returned them via Amazon the last 10 days of testing both systems I didn't even bother to turn on the surround speakers they were borderline useless.

got the 7.1 system. looking for replacement asap. Bass isn't bad, but the rest of the sound is AWFUL. it sounds very much like the early smart phones when you try and play music at any volume on speakerphone, and it has no treble, mids, highs, etc.

Having peeped the Ultimea lineup based on the buzz from here, they're merely mid-level cabecillas, that will likely take the place of Vizio now that Walmart's subjugation and annexation of that brand sent them in a death spiral towards oblivion alongside Onn! I would've been satisfied with the typical "black plastic crap" sound of Ultimea & other nobodies had I not been a reporter on a university student newspaper in the early '70s for my fellow scribes introduced me to 🎖️& platinum 👂ed audio as they enthusiastically waxed rhapsodic about McIntosh, Mark Levinson & Nakamichi hardware, I ended up getting hooked on that class of audio!
