Hi All,

ive been trying to find and Aiwa cs880 for a long time and have just discovered stereo2go!

I used to own one many years ago when i was 14 years old! Can you believe i swapped it for a technics turntable!

If you can help me in any way that would be great. ive got boxes of old jfm, solar etc. tapes that i cant wait to play again!

Thanking you in advance

Hi and welcome
I'm sorry to say that your going to find it hard to get an 880, there's not a lot around and the ones that are belong to collectors that don't want to let them go!
If you want one bad enough then be prepared to bid high for it to win it as it won't be cheap, and that's if one comes up for sale
Good luck pal

Hey there and i admire your thought's for your oldschool baby but like stereo mad said if not found in the wild ,you'll be looking at some big cash no doubt,another member had the same love for his beloved AIWA,took him a bit but he did find one ,not sure of how but be patient my friend,and just like another member on this site his name is Glen.I wish you the best of luck in your quest!

If your lucky enough you may find one as cheap as £25 you just need to fix her up....a couple of members have had them this cheap......off the bay....so don't give up hope.....i had one....and it looked a wright off but under all that grime she was mint....so don't give up hope just yet....the best ones to go for are the ones that need a little work....you can get them for quarter of the price...good luck dude

keep an eye on gumtree aswell as ebay, and put out ads ect in local shops and newspapers. also don't rule out junk shops and carboots.i remember lusting over a pioneer sk909L for ages and one morning i picked up a minty one at a bootsale for a tenner i know stories like this are few and far between but it can and will happen. like i said before, best of luck
