5.0 out of 5 stars Nice CD Player with AM/FM Stereo tuner., December 28, 2001

By	Bill "Nuts4Gadgets" (Flushing, NY United States) - See all my reviews

I bought this unit for my wife for Christmas and have found it to be an overall excellent unit thus far. It has excellent non fatiguing sound. That is it does not have sizzling over emphazised highs nor heavy boomy bass. If you want that, look elsewhere. The sound is well balanced. The two bass boost settings do come in handy at certain times when they do actually enhance the sound to make it sound better without over-doing it and causing listener fatigue.
The AM/FM Stereo tuner reception is very good. It is as good as my top of the line Sony cassette AM/FM Stereo walkman unit from a few years ago. And I thought that Sony walkman was excellent. So this Aiwa tuner is just as good in reception of signals but this Aiwa sounds better IMO, more neutral (less sizzly highs)than my Sony walkman.

This unit had the "scratchy, noisey" headphone jack problem that I read about on other AIWA models. But I found out how to cure (fix) that problem! Simply insert the headphone plug into the jack and turn it around 360 degrees inside the jack a few times to scrape all of the electrical contacts clean. Apparently the headphone jacks in these units have a slight coating of dirty oxidation on them. This is a minor concern and is fixed by doing what I suggested above. Try it if you have this problem and it will clean it up! The scratchy noise has not returned on my unit and the cnnection is totally reliable now.

With that, I find this unit worth every penny I spent for it and rate it excellent for sound quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfied customer, October 26, 2001

By A Customer

This is the first portable CD player I have bought, so I don't have much to compare it to, but I am very satisfied with this unit. One thing I like about it the most is the battery charging capability. Just buy a couple of rechargable AA batteries and plug the AC adapter into it and it will recharge the batteries for you. This saves the hastle of taking the batteries out, putting them in a recharger and them putting them back in. The only complaint I have is that everytime you turn the unit off, the extra bass I like is reset and I have to put it back the way I like everytime I turn it on. It would be nice if it saved this setting. Another thing I would like to see come with this is a belt clip so that you don't have to carry it by hand. Other than these two things, it works great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Cd player, October 25, 2001

By A Customer

i was looking forward to a panasonic. that is pretty much all i have ever had but i did not have the money so i decided to try something new and boy am i glad. The reception on the radio is great and i live in the country. My old panasonic am fm player got 2 stations, this gets like 15 and it does not skip much. Another great feature is the E.A.S.S. and how you can choose 48 second shock protection 12 second shock protection and no shock protection.
