TOKYO - Aiwa Co., Ltd. has introduced the XR-H330MD, a mini hi-fi system with a built-in subwoofer speaker, multi-amplifier system, and Mini Disc (MD) deck.

The XR-H330MD brings mini hi-fi systems to a whole new level of performance with its integrated subwoofer and multi-amp. What's more, it eliminates the need to buy a separate subwoofer system to enjoy deep, dynamic bass reproduction as well as crystal-clear vocals and other mid- and high-frequency sounds.

The XR-H330MD also features QSURROUND, an upgraded version of QSOUND, for greater natural stereophonic surround effects, an MD deck, three-disc CD auto changer, dual cassette deck, and a "single hit recording" function that makes it easy to record from CD to MD. The XR-H330MD is a high-quality, multi-function mini component system.

Main features
* Built-in Subwoofer System and Multi-Amplifier System
Built-in subwoofer speaker system reproduces clearer, richer bass reproduction than conventional bass-reflex systems, without affecting the mid- to high-range signals.
Multi-amplifier system offers two main improvements over conventional systems:
(1) less interference between low- and high-range signals, and
(2) improved reproduction of low-, mid- and high-frequency ranges. The XR-H330MD is equipped with four power amplifiers -- two separate left/right circuits for low-range and mid-and high-range signals. (Low-range circuit: 30W/channel, mid-and high-range circuit: 10W/channel).
The XR-H330MD also features a 3-way speaker system (Low-range circuit: subwoofer, mid-and high-range circuit: mid-range loudspeaker and supertweeter).
