I think the one thing that will surprise you is the freedom of having a boomer with a rechargeable battery gives you. You'll be taking this boomer outdoors a lot more knowing you're not going to be tearing through expensive D cells.

Well Im not worthy to say whats a must have, and whats not, thats personal to each individuals taste and wallet. Its a choice one needs to make on their own. All I can tell you all, is my opinion, which is just that...my opinion. If you have the money and are curious to find out for yourself, its available and it sounds GREAT. If not, thats cool tooMartin123 said:
To each his own (or her)All I can say is that I'm impressed, and I've been having a BLAST shaking my boom room with different genres of music.
Looking at the basic design, I'm guessing that the mid speakers are responsible for much of the extreme loudness, particularly outdoors.
As 80%+ of the sound from that main driver is actually coming out the bass port, placement must be important when indoors.
Lots of science went into that cabinet design to allow a single, relatively small driver to go so deep in bass!!!
Love it!!

Yea James its a little thumper, yesterday I took it outdoors in my backyard to test it out for a bit. It sounds just as good outdoors as it does indoors. I honestly didn't think I would listen to the E9 as much as I have so far, but its been getting used daily since day one. I love testing it out with all types of music, and so far, it all sounds good especially bass heavy tracks.

As I say before Steve, the E9 not have that classic look that all of us collector fall in love, but they sounds EXACTLY the way we all collectors wish, on our old schools boys.SLO said:Yea James its a little thumper, yesterday I took it outdoors in my backyard to test it out for a bit.

Was it east to pull grill?SLO said:So today was the day. I received the Aiwa Exos earlier. Unboxed it, and as I pulled out the big black box, at first sight, I cant lie...I was already having thoughts of returning it just based on its appearance alone.Its just not MY personal taste as far as looks go. I love great sound, but I also LOVE appearance just as much. LED's, VU meters, lights, chrome accents etc. What can I say, Im stuck in the 80's. But that wouldnt be fair. I needed to hear this thing.
Anyways after taking it into my boom room where I listen to all of my boomboxes on the regular, and after experimenting with some hard hitting bass tracks, I must say, WOWWWthis thing pumps out some IMPRESSIVE Bass. I don't want to repeat whats already been said about the Exos by Riker,hardmen, and many reviews all over the internet but the sound is very impressive. It pounds clean and hard to heavy bass songs even when maxed out. I didnt hear any distortion at max volume. My best sounding boombox is my M90, but I have to admit, the Exos puts out some really killer bass compared to any one of my boxes, the highs are crisp too, so its a well balanced sound.
Im far from a hardcore audiophile, but for the money, it puts out some pretty dam impressive sound from both the bluetooth and through the auxiliary input. I will have to do some cosmetic changes in the future in order to make it "pop" and to fit my personal style and taste a little more. To me, its worth the $$$ for the sound that comes out of this thing. I never thought I'd buy something "new and modern" and I know its not a boombox, and not "old school", but its well worth a listen for sure, and if you dont like it, you can ship it back at Aiwa's expense, and get a full refund. So theres really nothin to lose if your curious like I was. Just wanted to share my thoughts on this unit with you guys and gals, hope it helps, CHEERS!
