Comparing the Dolby on the Aiwa HS-J36 and the much more expensive and coveted HS-J09. The J36 was a slightly later release, and made in Singapore...
And I suppose using a playback device with an equalizer can only partly compensate for the missing Dolby. My 1986 Aiwa HS-J9/09/600's fortunately...
No. I'm trying to remain an incidental accumulator of these things, not a collector. I've managed not to buy one for a few months now. The...

I'm not surprised the J85's tuner is different from the J9's. Just disappointed. While the electronics of the cheap J85/36/369 are practically the...

Follow up on these two Aiwa HS-J9's. The short version is that I got both of them sorted out. The long versions are in separate posts, so as to...
