I saw that thing at BestBuy a few weeks ago -- checked the specs and as I recall, it runs maybe 3 amps per channel which is terrible when you consider the wattage per channel. But considering those tiny little speakers, maybe not so.

Just compare the units, side by side using the same speakers. Most BestBuy's will do that for you. The Aiwa's biggest advantage is it's Dolby Digital/DTS -- although from what I head a few weeks ago, it doesn't offer very good seperation.

Thank You

Ok thank you. Maybe after Christmas I will go to best Buy and ask to compare them. So if I ask they will compare them right there using the same speakers if I want?
