Strength:
the speaker system! the eq's the design the dimmer for the lights the remote cd player mechanism the life span on this unit!
Weakness:
Cd player is a little noisy...but who cares! Once again....here we go!!!! I know everybody is entitled to their opinions...but c'mon! The key to getting the best sound quality out of your mini systems is think about some things: Is my house carpeted? is it just bare floors? This all makes a difference. You need to separate your speakers. Living in a dorm-room or apartment, usually the speakers are put right next to the actual unit!!!!!----NO DON'T DO THAT!!! It can work some of the time, depending on where the unit is placed in the home. With this particular model---you can't separate the speakers. So take this unit and place it in a corner of a living room or a bedroom and you will get the sound. People don't turn the T-BASS function all the way up and expect to get clear sound with the volume on 38 or 40---you won't---(and that is with any system. The beautiful thing with this unit is that you can set the eq to your liking! That is a cool feature. The sound is exceptional! You just have to be patient and find the right sounf for you. That is what equalization is for! Enjoy!!!!!!!! STOP EXPECTING RACK SYSTEM SOUND from a 300 dollar unit that has satisfying sound! Similar Products Used: no |

Strength:
equalizer, superb sound quality (on different speakers than ones provided)
Weakness:
speakers, cd eye is very sensitive to scratches, too many lights. I have owned this stereo for about 5 years, and in those years, i dont think i have come across another mini-system with as much customizability as this one. although now, im very much against minisystems, i would recomend this model to most boarderline enthusiasts. it has a superb sound quality, and the equalizer is terrific. my only complaint is the speakers that come with it. The mid and high range speakers are standard, nothing speacial about them, and they accurately reproduce sounds at high volume levels. the subwoofers on the other hand, are poorly designed, at highlevels, they are very distorted. though that is mainly caused by the enclosure, not the speakers themselves. the seperate amplifyers come in handy at times, but in the long run, i think it would have been better to combine the amplifyers into a more traditional setup.

Sound quaility,Bass,High Rang noise.
Weakness:
product paint finish is easy to scratch. The AIWA NSXD7 is by far the best mini system i have ever heard. I had bought it from a private dealer before i hit stores so I paid a bit higher than normal price but it was worth every penny. I think the sound is phenominal compared to other mini systems and alot of seperate unit systems. I love the tweeters they are the most clear crisp sounding tweeters i have heard. This stereo is definetely not for people in quiet neighborhoods or apartment buildings....but it is perfect for those in a larger house who can make all the noise they want. The distortion level is very low if existent at high end as long as the T-BASS is set to off. This is definetly a very good investmant for someone who is look for superior sound!

Strength:
This is an all right stereo for as much as you have to pay for it.
Weakness:
I personally think that the stereo could use a little more bass than it has and the boxes for the subs are poorly built I also noticed that if you turn the volume up past 20 the subwoofers start to distort. Overall it is a nice stereo the sound quallity is good |

This is a great system. Beware, however, if noise is a consideration. This is definitely not the product for those living in apartment buildings or dorm rooms, because with 120 watt/ch subwoofers, I disturbed my house mates without even turning on the T-bass. Also, this product could use abit more power on the mid to high (only 30 watts/ch), or better, reduce the bass. On the up side the sound quality is excellent and the supertweeter is great, although you have to really crank up the system, before it kicks in. At $400, this is a great investent for a 14 by 14 foot or greater living room in a household where noise is not a factor. This is the kind of system you could literally throw a house party with. Quiet people beware! |

Overall, a great product which I am extremely satisfied with. For its price range, the sound quality is among the best in its class. The built-in 120-watt subs provide some outstanding bass sound, and all those annoying blinky lights that Aiwa seems to love putting on their systems were quite easy to turn off. The mid-range and high sounds are also very clear and crisp-sounding. I have found that the bass tends to distort when the T-Bass setting is used, and the mid-range distorts when the BBE is used - not sure what Aiwa was trying to do with these, but as long as they're turned off the sound is great. Also, the cd changer seems rather noisy. All in all, the complaints are minor as it is a great system and I am happy with the purchase. |
