Aiwa JAX-D 5

Advantages: Wikid Bass! And Looks Sexy
Disadvantages: None

...I bought this stereo for £130 from Dixons about a year ago, and I'm very impressed with the features it provides. The Aux connections at the back allow easy access to connect a portable device or your PC (using a 3.5mm to aux adaptor cable) and even DJ equipment (turntables/mixer). The CD tray accepts 3 CDs at any one time. This provides suitable space so that your favourite CDs are readily available to listen to, without the hassle of having to changing CDs all the time. It can also read mp3 formatted CDs and CD-R/RW, so you can take all your music from your PC and listen to it on you stereo.

...This was my first hifi and cost me just over £150 if i remember correctly. I've had it now just over 5 years and haven't had a single problem with it! Not bad i reckon. Its got a 3 cd multichanger amd double cassette deck. It pumps out 80 watts from its huge speakers. The sound it produces is fantastic, i've got it up at uni and it really does shake the flat!!! Absolutely perfect fir flat parties. It looks wicked, bits of metal everywhere and the speakers look like absolute monsters. Its served me well for the last 5 years and i'd definitely have another aiwa if anything were to happen to this one. Its an old model but i'm sure technology has got better and their newer models are better than this. I'd really consdier aiwa when purchasing hifi equipment.... Read review

...I spent nearly £500 pounds on a Aiwa Hifi system beliveing it was a good make and a good Hifi system. Maybe it could have been justified if i had the stupid thing longer than 1 year!, but i only had it for 7 months. The Hifi will not play any CDs at all, things switch themselves on without pressing anything. My brothers brand new VCR broke without cause he had that vcr for just over a year. My friend in college bought a broand new aiwa minidisc and that broke too he had it only for 3 weeks. IT IS OFFICAL AIWA IS TOTALLY USELESS.... Read review
