XR-MD95

XR-MD90

TOKYO - Aiwa Co., Ltd. has introduced the XR-MD95 and XR-MD90 compact desktop hi-fi systems. Both models have main units measuring just 14.4 cm wide, with a two-piece center unit design (MD/CD and amplifier/tuner) for more flexible layout in any room. The units' appearance is also a sharp contrast to other systems; instead of black or silver, the XR-MD95 and XR-MD90 both come in a sophisticated blue color. What's more, the new models are designed for user-friendly operation, with a clear shield remote control, most operation keys concealed in the loading tray, and a large, easy-to-read blue LCD panel.

The XR-MD95 and XR-MD90 offer different features when it comes to speakers: the XR-MD95 has Medium-Density Fiber (MDF) two-way speaker system in luxurious wood cabinets, while the XR-MD90 features Aiwa's unique Front 180o speaker system.
