Full featured and good looking

by snarshad , Nov 25 '99
Pros: Full feature set, great design, easy to use
Cons: No good car power adaptor available, remote's pause button ambiguous
This is one of the nicest portable minidisc recorders I've seen. At $300 (circuit city, J&R), it's a great price for what it offers.

I do believe that this is the best looking portable minidisc player out there. The indiglo is nice - but...

Aiwa Rocks!

by jspali15 , Oct 18 '00
Pros: Reliable, jogging dial, long battery life, digital recording capabilities
Cons: none
I bought my Aiwa MD recorder at the beginning of last summer (1999). There are several reasons why I bought my MD player. First of all, I was sick of carrying around a discman that wouldn't fit in my pocket. I would have to either hold it or stick it...

I love my Aiwa!

by alexaugot , Nov 27 '99
Pros: Sleek profile, great recording features, neat remote, jog wheel makes it easy to title songs, great DAC, cool Swoop headphones, never ever skips
Cons: Sound is a little low, analogue recordings don't sound as good as digital.
I love my MiniDisc player/recorder. I'm somewhat of an audiophile, so I like to be on the bleeding edge of technology. MiniDisc's are a relatively new format for audio. Unlike CD's, MD's are tiny ( about 1/4 the size of CD's ), re-recordable, and...

Sleek, Cool performance

by ungalicious , Apr 27 '01
Pros: blue LCD display, jog shuttle, DSL bass, remote, 40 sec shock protection
Cons: moderate battery life
Typical Japanese engineering...tiny, compact, and cool. Two years ago, I was one of the few who owned or knew what an MD player was! This player has been a great investment, I can say for certain that is much better looking than other players by Sony or...

Studio in my pocket

by ScientifiK , Dec 08 '99
Pros: Recording softwear, digital recording
Cons: headphone design, piracy protection
I have come to the conclusion that mini disc is the new media for music in the future. Not only does the mini disc offer a more versitile format for music, but also offers up less space and more effectiveness of design. Aiwa adds more to these benefits...

Best MD player I've had yet

by snobrd63 , Jun 06 '01
Pros: rechargeable Li-ion battery, indiglo LCD screen on unit & remote, jog dial
Cons: screen scratches easily, not so sturdy
Like I said, I've had three MiniDisc players and this was definitely the best one. My brother recommended that I did'nt buy it because, "Sony invented the walkman, the portable CD, and the Minidisc so they must be the best". I'm not sure about this,...

Your own portable jukebox

by jwei , Jan 05 '00
Pros: small, can hold all your favorite songs, make your own mixes
Cons: expensive, takes time to learn all of its functions
Have you ever wished that you could your own personal jukebox that you could just carry around with you wherever you went? Well your wish has come true in the form of the minidisc player. Aiwa's AM-F70 minidisc player is one of the best on the market...

AM-F70: Live Recorders Dream!

by gretax , Dec 09 '00
Pros: Live tapers Minidisc recorder of choice.
Cons: Sound output direct to headphones isn't best
The Aiwa AM-F70 has quickly become the unit of choice in the dark, delicious world of live taping, even more so that it's newer/"younger" brother, the AM-C80. Let's look at it's knockout combination for live recording:

Backlit...

by Deerplower , Jul 17 '00
Pros: WOW-size Wow-quality WOW!

WOW...that is all that is nesassary to say. For the price I spent ($230)
I have now come to the conclusion I have never bought a better music playing device. You can do all music editing onboard and the unit is great! Its very hard to believe even...

by Ajos2 , Nov 12 '00
Pros: Very Easy to use
Cons: Uncomfortable headphones, and Bad Remote control set up
The Aiwa Fm-70 is one of the better mini disc's out there. I bought my mini disc over this past summer, and I did extencive research on it. I was originaly going to buy an Mp3 player, but realized that there weren't to many good ones out there. I was...

this MD is for ME

by rizzen , Aug 29 '00
Pros: jog dial control, long battery life, easy to operate
Cons: i have yet to have any problems
When you have the headphones on and you're grooving, the last thing you want is for the batteries in your player to run out of juice. But with the Aiwa, you'll probably run out of juice before the player does. With just the rechargeable battery, You can...

You Gotta Love Aiwa!

by edyu , Jan 24 '00
Pros: Great Battery Life, Solid, Extremely Convenient
Cons: Just A Little Big
Out of all the minidisc recorders I have, the Aiwa AM-F70 has got to be the best one. It's not only the best it's the cheapest. It cost me only $200! The battery life is also the great. I could record for about 6 hours and listen to music for about 14...

Top of the line

by raasnio , Oct 07 '00
Pros: fully lit remote, ease of use, looks
Cons: none that I can think of.
After being exposed to minidiscs, it wasn't long before I had decided that I had to own a MD player. In all honesty, the AIWA unit caught my eye immediately with it's silver body and handy controls. Having stood out from the competition so profoundly, I...
