Aiwa shelf stereo systems are capable of playing numerous types of media, which can include:

When you are searching for a stereo system to add to a bookshelf in your home or to place around your television set, the numerous factors that will help with your decision include:

• Your music collection: Take a look at your music collection to identify what form your music primarily comes in. If you have a large number of compact discs, Aiwa compact disc stereo systems come with a CD player.
• Your stereo type: Stereos are available in several types that include bookshelf, mini, and portable. Many stereos will come with one receiver and two separate tower speakers.
• Your preferred features: Some features to consider include a karaoke mode that switches to a karaoke microphone, a recording system, a digital display that identifies the type of audio you're listening to, and settings that allow for increased bass or treble.

Located on the back of many Aiwa stereos are a wide array of connectors that accommodate various devices. When connected to the stereo, these devices send their audio or video signals to the stereo for playback from the speakers. A subwoofer port is typically available, and youll see digital video ports for coaxial and optical cables. Aiwa stereos that are built for use with AM and FM radio frequencies usually include multiple antenna ports to boost the frequency. Left and right audio ports can also be used for phono, auxiliary, tape monitor, and CD player inputs.
