Audio/video and home theatre systems major Nakamichi has established its presence in Kolkata with the opening of eastern India's first exclusive Nakamichi Gallery here. The Nakamichi footprint will soon be extended to other cities in the region such as Bhubaneswar and Guwahati.

"It identifies with the corporate design guidelines of Nakamichi Corporation and is fully equipped to showcase the entire range of our high-end products, such as home audio, home theatre and car audio systems. Pro-Acoustics will offer complete solutions from concept to installation and service back up.

Among the products on offer at the Nakamichi Gallery are the Soundspace range of stereo systems priced between Rs 26,000 and Rs 1,99,000 and the Soundspace series home theatre systems that are priced in the Rs 1,30,000-7,00,000 range.
