Nakamichi NAM5960 PRO-AXZ car head unit

The Nakamichi NAM5960 Pro is currently the brand's most advanced multimedia car head unit, designed for users who expect not only comfort and modern connectivity from their main unit, but above all high sound quality and extensive tuning options. This model sits at the very top of the lineup and combines powerful hardware, a premium display and advanced audio technologies that place it well above ordinary Android head units.

The system is based on an octa‑core Qualcomm A73 processor combined with the NK 12.0 operating system, which ensures very smooth operation, fast response and stable performance even under heavy multitasking. The unit is available with either a 9" or 10" diagonal and offers either a quality IPS panel or a top‑end 2K QLED display with high resolution, fine image reproduction and brightness up to 500 nits. Thanks to this, the screen remains perfectly readable even in direct sunlight and control stays precise and comfortable thanks to 2.5D capacitive glass.

The audio section plays a key role in the NAM5960 Pro. The head unit is equipped with a professional DSP processor with a 48‑band equalizer, detailed Q control, time alignment of individual channels and support for advanced spatial technologies including DTS Surround. Support for Hi‑Res audio and playback of lossless formats, including DSD files, is a matter of course — a rarity in this class of head units. Digital audio outputs in both optical and coaxial form allow direct connection to external DSP processors or Hi‑Fi amplifiers without signal degradation.

With full 5.1‑channel RCA preouts (including a dedicated center channel), the NAM5960 Pro is an ideal foundation for advanced active installations and multichannel audio systems. The built‑in amplifier delivering 4 × 50 W provides a solid basis even for simpler setups, while the signal quality remains at a very good level.

The multimedia and connectivity equipment matches the highest class. The unit supports 4K video playback, an HDMI output for connecting an external screen, USB DVR, a 360° camera system and AHD cameras up to 1080P. Built‑in GPS navigation, wireless connectivity via Bluetooth 5.0, Wi‑Fi in both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands and the option for data connectivity via 4G network are standard. Phone mirroring is supported for selected Android and iOS devices.

Thanks to a very sensitive radio tuner, the NAM5960 Pro is also suitable for demanding FM radio listening, even in areas with weaker reception. The package is rounded off by multicolor illumination of controls, a modern graphical interface and an overall very premium finish that reflects this model's position in the brand's lineup.

About the brand

The history of the Nakamichi brand goes back to 1948, when it was founded in Japan by Etsuro Nakamichi. His journey began with the establishment of the Nakamichi Research Corporation in Tokyo, focused on research of sonars, magnets and development solutions for leading brands, government institutions and universities. From the start the brand built on a scientific approach, deep understanding of sound and an emphasis on technical precision. A decisive period of expansion came in 1972 when Takeshi Nakamichi joined the company and played a major role in developing the legendary audio products sold worldwide. Under his leadership, for example, the Nakamichi 1000 model was created — the world’s first cassette deck. Thanks to the combination of top‑quality sound and timeless design, to which the company’s chief engineer Kozo Kobayashi also contributed, Nakamichi products became icons of their era. The Nakamichi brand remains successful today, offering a portfolio of high‑quality products for home and car audio that stand out for thoughtful construction, quality workmanship and excellent sound within their price category.

Car radio sizeCar radios are divided into 2 basic sizes, 1DIN car radios and 2DIN car radios . 1DIN size car radios - the exact dimensions including the metal frame where the car radio is inserted are 184 x 53 mm, the external dimensions of the branded 1DIN car radio are 188 x 59 mm. We know 2DIN car radios from newer vehicles, a classic example is the VW Golf IV with navigation. The dimensions of a 2DIN car radio without a metal frame are 180 x 101 mm, the external dimensions of a branded 2DIN car radio are 189 x 119 mm.	2DIN
Car radio performanceThe performance of the car radio shown in maximum values. This is therefore the MAX value. The performance of the internal amplifier of the car radio. Today, the RMS power of a car radio ranges from 17 - 30 W RMS per channel.	4 x 50 W
Supported formats via USB inputList of all supported formats (MP3, AAC, Flac, DivX, etc.) that the car radio can play via USB input.	MP3/ APE/AAC/FLAC/DSD
USB inputThe USB input of the car radio is used to connect a USB flash drive or smartphone. Today, playing music via USB is the most popular way to listen to music in the car. The USB input can be front (on the front panel of the car radio) or rear (on the back of the cable).	Yes, dual
CD driveCar radios with CD drive. Car radios that have an input slot for inserting a CD.	No
SD card accessModern branded car radios can play SDHC SD cards up to 32 GB, sometimes even 64 GB. The SD card slot is behind the front panel in most car radios.	No
DVD driveDVD ("Digital Versatile Disc" or "Digital Video Disc") is a digital optical data carrier format that can contain movies or various other data. Car radios with a DVD drive can also play classic CD discs, and the car radio always has a slot for only one disc, the CD drive and the DVD drive are always in one.	No
Integrated BluetoothBluetooth is a communication technology used for wireless connection between two or more electronic devices. A mobile phone, for example, can be connected to a car radio with built-in Bluetooth. Most car radios for 2017 and later can also wirelessly stream (play) music via Bluetooth -> A2DP function.	Yes
Audio Streaming via BluetoothA2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) is a Bluetooth profile that enables the wireless transmission of stereo audio from an A2DP source, typically a mobile phone or computer, to an A2DP receiver (car radio). These devices usually also support the AVRCP profile.	Yes
External microphone included in the packageThe external microphone is connected from the back of the car radio to the input marked "MIC". For ideal sound quality during a phone call, we recommend placing the external microphone on the left "A" pillar at the point where the "A" pillar and the roof panel connect to each other. A very good position to place an external microphone is also near the central rear-view mirror.	Yes
Number of RCA outputsRCA outputs , colloquially called "cinches", are used to connect an external amplifier or active subwoofer. Aftermarket car radios are usually equipped with 1 to 3 pairs of RCA outputs. FRONT, REAR and SUB are used. It also depends on how many volt outputs the car radio is equipped with. More basic models of car radios have 2V outputs, more expensive units have 4V and more. The higher the specified value, the less power demands are placed on the external amplifier and the sound quality increases.	5.1
Output level on RCAAn important parameter if you are going to install an external amplifier. If you purchase a car radio with a basic value, i.e. 2V outputs, then greater demands will be placed on the power of the amplifier. As the value increases, e.g. 4V or 5V, the power of the external amplifier increases significantly, in layman's terms. A car radio with strong outputs therefore has the advantage that you do not pull so much power through the amplifier and thus achieve a better sound, as external amplifiers lose control at higher loads.	4 V
Backlit buttonsColor options for the backlight of the car radio buttons.	Multicolor
DisplayAdditional information about the display. Segment, LCD, multi-line, etc.	10.1" OLED, 2000 × 1200 px, brightness 500 nits, IPS panel

Using the DSP processor , you can set the time correction, connect the speakers actively (actively): without crossovers, set the location of the speakers and determine their size digitally.	Yes, 48-band
Built-in DAB+ tunerIntegrated DAB+ (Digital Audio Broadcasting) digital FM tuner for reception of digital FM radio signal broadcasting. Before buying a car radio with a DAB+ tuner, we recommend checking whether the package includes a DAB+ antenna, without which you cannot receive digital broadcasts. This information is usually provided on the manufacturer's official website.	No
Direct subwoofer controlSubwoofer settings, where you can add or subtract the dB level, i.e. subtract or add bass according to the recording. Higher class car radios can also rotate the phase and other functions for perfect bass. Some car radios allow you to turn off the subwoofer completely, with a button in the car radio menu. This is a very useful feature if you have a subwoofer in your car.	Yes
