MA Multimedia Haim Speaker Sotem<br />
Given Aiwa's reputation for top-quality<br />
equipment such as their latest CD-ROM<br />
drive which received a Blue Chip Award<br />
last month, high hopes were held for<br />
their mid-priced speakers.<br />
The Aiwa speakers, although quite<br />
compact, are stylish in design and<br />
because they are slim. fit nicely by the<br />
side of your monitor without taking up<br />
too much space. Three control buttons<br />
are situated at the lop and as well as the<br />
usual power button, there is a Surround<br />
control which, in theory, gives you more<br />
of a stereo effect due to the Front<br />
Surround Circuitry. However, when<br />
tested it didn't actually alter the sound a<br />
great deal.<br />
From such small speakers you do get<br />
quite a powerful sound. although bass<br />
sounds don't come across all that well,<br />
and unfortunately, although it claims<br />
'Dynamic Super Linear Bass', it still<br />
sounds fairly tinny.<br />
At this price the Aiwa still feels like a<br />
durable, sturdy system, and if you're not<br />
too fussy about deep bass sounds then<br />
the Aiwa provides value for money.<br />
