Hi there...
Personaly I would go for the Sony. When it comes to getting parts after the
warrenty is finished, I have had problems with Aiwa. Sony parts are easy
to get for a number of years past the warrenty period.
This VCD surround is only a simulated type of surround anyways, and will
not give any real improvment on the real sound itself...
Good Listening...

|To all audio expert,
|
| I am looking around for a mini hi-fi system, the one I have
|shortlisted are :
|
| Aiwa NSX-K350 (3 disc changer with VCD)
|
| Sony MHC-GR5 (single disc, Dolby NR)
|
| Aiwa has more features (VCD, surround speakers, higher power),
|however Sony spec seems to be better (S/N ratio, receiver sensitivity).
|I have heard many stories that Aiwa mini hi-fi set tends to have CD
|problem after some years of usage, the Aiwa CD mechanism seems to have
|inherent design faults that require alignment after some time, otherwise
|it will not be able to focus properly. Does anyone out there have any
|bad experience with either Aiwa or Sony mini hi-fi set ?
|
| I don't really need the VCD feature, however I want a set that
|is reliable and with reasonable sound performance. I would appreciate
|any feedback or suggestions.
|
| Thanks for anyone out there for the replies !
