Great Player 2001-07-12
The Aiwa CD player is one of the best that I have purchased. I have had it for almost 4 years now. It plays CD-R's as well as regular CDs. The sound quality is good, and for those of you that like volume and bass this model will satisfy. I've dropped it, bounced it and it's incredibly hard to get it to skip. (Though it did skip when it hit the floor from the treadmill.) The silver body does get scratched up pretty easily, though that really only messes up the aesthetics and not the sound quality. THe car kit is complete and easy to use. The backlight display is very helpful in the dark.
pretty tight

Best Buy! 2000-05-25
I bought this product after reading online reviews. Originally I was in the market for a Sony. When I read how satisfied others were with the Aiwa XP-779, I changed my mind. I bought it over a year ago and haven't a complaint! The anti-shock system is excellent! I never found the features difficult to operate, it seemed simple to me. Also, the rechargeable battery function is priceless! I just charge them up before I go away and leave the other attachments at home! If you want a reliable cd player, buy this one, you won't regret it!
OK but not built to last

Works fine for price but you get what you pay for. Tape adaptor broke after 2 months. Sound quality is average. Often when it skips it shuts off. No backlit display.
An AIWA fan... 2000-01-31
The XP-779 features incredible sound performance with up to 18 hours of playback. The player comes wit car kit Car Kit (DC and Cassette Adaptor) 20 Second EASS (Electronic Anti Shock System) acts as a buffer to assure smooth playback in the most jarring of circumstances.This CD player delivers multiple play modes, illuminated LCD screen, heat-resistant body for in-car and outdoor use, and 3-Point LED battery life indicator. AIWA's DSL (Dynamic Super Linear) circuitry is a sophisticated electronic equalizer that automatically compensates for bass roll-off, thereby extending the speaker's low-frequency response. The amount of compensation is varied according to signal level to prevent distortion and provide deep, natural-sounding bass at all listening levels. Music helps manage stress and may be a vital factor in long-term survival under adverse conditions. This remarkable little CD player will definitely improve your lifestyle.
High Quality Good Price 1999-12-15
It's a great cd player that has good features and is very durable. I would recommend this to anyone who's looking for a nice cd player and doesn't want to spend a fortune. It has good features, doesn't skip, has shock protection. It's a great product.
Not too good player

3* for sound. ESP works great. Sound quality is good, definitely better than 2 Sony(ESP broke) units I had, but AIWA interferes with all kinds of electric equipment. While listening to my music on the train and it was picking up a static noise from the electric engines of a train, same thing happened on the escalator. For me it's a NO!
a bad choice

I bought this cd playerlast December and it's already broken.It broke in June. It's not somthing that I did to it, The main gear inside it just got stripped. I love Aiwa products but this didn't even last for over a half a year!
Excellent, affordable, premium sound quality, I love it! 1999-11-02
This Aiwa portable CD player is the best! It makes my car speakers sound better than they really are. For the money, this little CD player is a great value. Aiwa products generate great sound, and I love the features such as "resume" and the extra bass. This player never skips, and was simple to use and install into my car. For those people who wrote about having trouble turning it on, don't listen. All you do is press the play button! I get in my car, turn it on, and press play! Simple, premium sound, sleak design - in one word, AIWA!
