This is obviously our wind up posting for the week! Lol

How can anyone say "Should I keep my Aiwa" ::grin::

Anyways, simple answer is here: http://choosefirst.co.uk and there should be lotsa stuff between there and Troll`s LG 3350 site to keep ya interested :o)

lol.. yer i seen there.. but. as i said.. i got the option of a pioneer 535 or 360(i think) at about the same price and i can swap if i want.. so what i sayin is.. betewwen the 3,, which would u lot keep?.. and surely there has to be some gripes with the aiwa? lol

Why I`m on my second Pioneer:
- Image clarity, sharpness, quality
- Sound quality, definition
- Quality of construction, features, solid and serious product
- On the cons side, their remote controls are not the most user friendly, but you get used to it.
My first was a DV 414, which I kept for one and a half years. Looking for a sound improvement without filling my space with separate units, I recently bought the Pioneer HTZ 55DV (NS 55DV in Europe) Home Theatre In Box.
I really loved the way Pioneer entered the DVD bandwagon. I believe, for what I`ve seen, they produce the best sound/image of every price range they enter. You can`t go wrong with it.
If I were you, I`d certainly get the Pioneer.
The day they put on the market a progressive scan Home Theatre In Box, that`ll be my third Pioneer DVD.
Good Luck,
José Azevedo

any other opinions?

José has it spot on. Pioneer every time.
Am I right in thinking you are from good old Leicester. If so please come along to Sevenoaks on Loseby Lane and see what we have got.

Sorry no Aiwa`s though! lol.

All the best,

Andrew.

No Chance!!

Search the site for Aiwa 370 or LG 3350 and that answers your question for you!

I have had the following:

Samsung 709 (x2)
Pioneer 525
Limit JDV300
REC 3000
Aiwa 370
LG 2280 (still awaiting a firmware chip!)
LG 3350
Pioneer DVD Rom
Sony DDU220 DVD ROM
Toshiba DVD Rom

Currently I still have: The 3350, the LG 2280 (Damn chip!!), Pioner Rom (in this PC) and the Tosh Rom (Laptop)

Why have I changed the Aiwa for the LG? Simple, same player, a few extra features and it has a macro mod.

The truth is, if it didn`t have the macro mod, I`d have kept the Aiwa.
The Aiwa and LG`s are far suprerior in most respects to the others mentioned, but the Pioneer is a good machine.

By the way...I`m in the trade ;o)

how much did you pay for the aiwa 370 and where did you get it ?

just interested, cause I might buy one as my first machine

mitchk

i bought mine from richer sounds for 199 quid,, am well happy with it so far...:0)

cheers mate - I was given the price of £199-00 which seemed to be about right..

I might just pop out and buy this at the weekend..

reading the reviews, I have mixed feelings about this machine - however, it will be the first DVD I`ve bought and will probably do me for what I want it for..

thanks again
