The NSX-HMA86 is among Aiwa's best mini audio home theater systems, packing many high-end features that one normally finds only in more expensive setups. Among these, you'll find built-in Dolby Pro Logic surround sound, 6 inputs for Dolby Digital source signals, BBE circuitry (which adjusts for frequency and phase distortions), and two separate amplifiers that share the responsibility of pumping the HMA86's awesome 340 watts into its six speakers. This separation of power both reduces distortion and insures crisp high-end definition. As for features, the HMA86 boasts a 32-preset digital AM/FM tuner, dual recording cassette decks with high-speed dubbing, a 3 CD changer, and a digital signal processor that allows the user either to choose a preset EQ mode, or to customize one at home using the HMA86's graphic equalizer. And when you decide to throw your first party to celebrate your purchase, make sure to take advantage of the HMA86's "blank skip," a CD changer feature that eliminates silence between tracks to provide continuous entertainment for any social occasion. If you're looking for a reasonably priced home theater system that's compact and provides you with everything but a TV and a VCR, the HMA86 is hard to beat.
