Aiwa Exos-9 Speaker (USA) - amzn.to/2hu2xkj
Aiwa Exos-9 Speaker (International) - geni.us/hfkbCF
This is one of the best portable bluetooth speakers I've ever had on the Unbox Therapy desk.
Here is some more info from the manufacturer -
The Exos-9 is the only portable bluetooth speaker that boasts 5 active speaker drivers, including a 6.5 inch dual voice coil subwoofer, in its category.
Other speakers in the category have NO active subwoofer and are simply not as powerful. The Exos-9 features 200 watts of continuous power where the others top out around 40 watts.
How are we able to provide more powerful, better quality sound at a better value than the others? We believe in putting more resources into our products than into TV ads and celebrity endorsements. This allows us to build the very best products and offer them at the best value.
Linking two Exos-9s is easy and provides either stereo separated (L+R) or dual stereo (LR + LR) sound. Entertain a 75-guest party that will surely draw the attention of your neighbors and local authorities.
Crank the bass, mids, or highs. Or crank them all. We won't judge. With 4 available pre-sets you can trust our taste or fine tune the EQ to your liking. The customizable EQ makes the Exos-9 perfect for every genre of music as well as podcasts and audiobooks.
Sharing is caring, unless your friends have poor taste in music. Share control of your Exos-9 or apply the Bluetooth lock to keep it paired to your device exclusively.

It makes the 90s teenager in me happy to know that Aiwa still be making good sound systems..:)
I have an Aiwa home theatre system from the 90's. Its still on of the best speakers I've ever owned
I owned a little Aiwa boom box back in the day....i loved it...had a LCD display on the front...i thought i was DA BOMB
my first and last 'walkman' was aiwa
I know I couldn't get over that Aiwa is still making products!!! We had an Aiwa cd disc changer/holder in the 90s...
Sorry, but that Aiwa is long gone. The brand name has been sold and resold.
Who had an Aiwa or Sony walkman back in the day? ...
shaolindreams walkman
i still have them both somewhere
shaolindreams wit tha street style headphones
shaolindreams me still have it now
i had the sony xplode stereo with the 4 inch sub. lol
It’s 2023. I’ve had my unit for years and it still pumps hard. Best purchase ever!
I thought aiwa died long back. Good to see it back on the field. Childhood memories.
They did, this is just a branding stunt, like with Polaroid etc
zawzero They came back in 2015.
Poaoe Strakani
They did not come back. It is just the name slapped on some cheap china builds because AIWA trademark was sold by Sony. Learn your backgrounds.
+zawzero cheap china builds that costs 300 usd!
Ankur Debbarma
That's what I meant with "Marketing stunt"
Brought this three years ago and this thing is still pumping to this day
Is it still holding up?
Any problems?
Finding a replacement battery is impossible! Any ideas?
@@tybear79 contact aiwa themselves
@@tybear79 Awia themselves. Keep an eye out for when it's back in stock or email them. Insanely good customer support.
@@Infected_Miller None that I've had in the 4 years I've owned it. Small bluetooth glitch, but updating the firmware was super easy. I got the extended battery and it still lasts me 5 12 hour shifts at work at half volume or so.
Wow! Aiwa is back! Haven't seen that name since my parents bought their Aiwa shelf system in 1998...
That system was the best in those days.
Bring back 1998...
Vincent D , your way to young to remember but back in the 1970s, Awai had very nice rack systems. reel to reel, cassette decks, record players, full spectrum analizer with equilizer.nice stuff. and the speakers back then we're massive.
not like all the small pussy multi driver speakers like they have today.
I still have a pair of vintage Sansui speakers.
12 inch dual port woofer
3X5 inch super horn tweeter with L-Pad
5 inch mid-range and 2 4 inch regular tweeters.
those things still pound out the best clear loud bassy music I've heard from ANY SPEAKER to date!!!!!!!
I remember their amazing walkmen, full aluminium cases, ultra thin and bloody costly.
I still rock a set of Aiwa speaker my wife picked up back in college. She got them in 1994! And, they still sound awesome!
I think it's made by harmon cardon

Unbox Therapy early!!
awsome
Unbox Therapy Noto Squaaad LIT
Unbox Therapy 😎
Really Early
My great-grandfather purchased an AIWA 200w stereo back in the year 2000. It featured a bi-amp system (Highs: 25w x 2, Lows: 75w x 2), a 3-disc CD changer, a dual cassette deck, a karaoke function with 1/4" Mic input, Analog and Optical Outputs, 2 analog inputs (MD and Video/Aux), and the famous BBE Sonic Maximizer system.
In 2006, my great-grandfather traded me said stereo for my 120w Sony Stereo I had at the time because at the time I needed a louder stereo to keep up with my bass amp for practicing. My great-grandfather eventually passed away in 2013 at the age of 101.
The current state of the stereo is that it still functions well for Line input usages such as Phonograph and 1/8" Line In. The karaoke function still works and the 1/4" input is used fairly often where it is currently located. The CD player doesn't work as well as it used to with skipping happening throughout playback. The dual tape deck is unusable due to the door latches being broken (my fault). The sound, however, is still as powerful and balanced as it was on the day it was purchased.
The stereo now serves the private music school where I currently teach bass and guitar lessons. :)
The first sentence killed me! Bahahahaha "My great-grandfather..."
Seriously, hardly that long ago
LCTuba89
What a touching story:)
'i feel uncomfortable, that man has too much bass'..................... had me rollin'
Me too
Facts
Whats the beat at the end!? Damn that was fire
yeah tat was a good one
i'm looking for it if i find it i will give you a link
D-JazzMan looking for it too.
Yeah I'm seriously anxious to play it on my sound system in my room with my two subs
***** if you want something to play in the mean time try this Tropkillaz - MAMBO (Bass Boosted) this shit shakes the whole house when i play it with my 2x6inch woofers
Aiwa is still a thing?
exactly my thought
dogepi I haven't heard the name Aiwa since the 90's. Remember buying one of their 3 Cd home bookshelf systems from Circuit City.
Steven D It returned in 2015.
Steven D they was bought from sony a vew years ago and now they start again
Justin CSG Huh. Didn't know that. Good to know.
I LOVED my Aiwa walkman back in the day. The EQ on it was incredible. So much bass and treble.
Every review of this speaker has been extremely favorable.
this video sold this speaker to me, and now OWN ONE! lol. And I can tell you I did not regret buying it
Same dude. I bought it about a week after this episode came out. Lol
@@dylankessler123 does it still stand up after 2 years?
@@MJB1993 Oh yeah. And we just had a barbecue at our place. The battery lasted the whole day (well, more like 9 hours) and still had 2 bars of battery.
In 2019 now it’s still great, but JBL’s new party box tops it now for the same price. The Exos-9 is still one of the top speakers though
Cicjob had mine a couple years now. Still love it.
I had an Aiwa boombox back in the day, and the sound was incredible.
Aiwa's return to the audio market is fuckin huge, because they were definitely underrated and underappreciated. The Exos-9 is a definite power move.
AIWA - hell! That's the blast from the past!
Not really, this is just the name.
zawzero you're not old enough then :)
kotopsycho
I am old enough. I meant this device is a cheap chinese device with the AIWA label slapped on it because someone bought the rights to the name. AIWA JPN CO is not producing anymore.
zawzero real shame then... they were a good brand. I have a VHS player and a TV... both still work after about 20 years.
kotopsycho
I also have a AIWA Boombox in the closet. AIWA stopped in the early 2000s, was then bought by Sony and eventually the sold the rights in 2014 to a company selling cheap android and Bluetooth gear. The result can be seen here ;)
Best $300 I’ve ever spent... fantastic speaker with insane bass.
If you are still active could you let me know how its going with durability, has the sound deterioration over time any crackles etc and if not would you say you can sometime physically feel the music
@@JGilly-cp1tk Good timing! I'm actually using the speaker currently and I have to say there is no audible sound deterioration even from everyday use at full bass boost! I would actually say it sounds better now after all the use hah. You can absolutely physically hear the music with the right EQ settings. Even after some trips to the beach and around town this speaker still looks and performs like the day I got it! One of my best all time purchases.
@@JGilly-cp1tk They hold up really well. Ive had mine for about 2 years and its still a monster! I got mine refurbished and its still awesome. The only thing is.. you get one and your gunna want a second one to pair them up haha for even more sound!
I purchased mine in 2019. I was so impressed I bought a second unit. I use mine everyday, they are my surround sound system..I have an mp3 line into one from my flatscreen, and pair a second to the other one. They play as separate left and right channels. They still sound as good as the day I bought them ❤
I have had my expos 9 for over a year now. And I love it! I brought it in my suitcase to Hawaii and there was a note that customs searched my bag. They probably thought it was something else! Favorite speaker for everything
What you don't mention is that the speaker supports APTX which is the highest quality Bluetooth sound protocol. Of course it doesn't much matter for this test as you tested with A Pixel which for some damned reason does not support APTX. Pretty much every Samsung and Motorola phone supports APTX among others. And of course the damned iPhones don't support APTX either.
Christopher Gaul I don't understand the problem here. Explain please ?
Yosimmity Simar APTX is the highest quality way of transferring sound over Bluetooth. They tested with a phone that doesn't support APTX. It's like testing a 4K TV using 1080p content.
+Christopher Gaul thanks for the explanation sir
Christopher Gaul thanks for the explanation. But in the video Lew seems to be quite good pleased with the quality. Would it be even better?
Yosimmity Simar yes. definitely.
My first boombox in 1985 was an aiwa, really good sound to it.
That was a different company.
Ur on too many threads here man. get off youtube, get yourself a nice shirt and find yourself a job
Robert Blasingame
Actually I am shitposting from my job.
zawzero what do you work for
Jayden Thompson he works for DEEZ NUTZ
Aiwa used to make some small home stereos with huge sound in the 90s.
I personally had one. It was actually too loud! Not something that’s can be said in its size and class.
AIWA FTW! Love seeing that brand again! My first receiver, VCR and 5.1 system was from AIWA in the late 1990's and up until recently, minus the VCR, it served me well! Sony bought AIWA in the early 2000's. Glad to see they didn't completely put it out to pasture.
I have this speaker, and I’m really excited that you’re reviewing it! This thing deserves every 5 star review it has on Amazon AND it is one of, if not the only speaker in this price category that has all five star reviews from over a 1,000 reviews. The best part of Aiwa is definitely their customer service, they have great people that help you out within an hour of contact. I love this speaker, I saved for it for awhile and when I finally made the purchase I never looked back! Haven’t had any issues with it since!
In 2002 my dad bought a AIWA sound system it’s so beautiful and the sound quality was amazing. We still have it in our store room.
UnboxTherapy you really NEED to Link your Playlists 😀😍💪🏼🔥
onni i For fuck Sake what is wrong with you you Little Fat fuck
onni i whats wrong with u
0 to 100 real quick
Nepali kto Thank You Mate :) Relly appreciating that
What was the name of the song at the end 😣
Aiwa sure had some dope reel to reel tape decks back in the day! -I had a Panasonic Platinum cassette boombox way back in the day, and this device is SO much more. I want one of these!!!
James Courier , I had one and a Pioneer
I remember buying mine a few weeks after seeing this video lol, bought it 30th December 2016, still banging, truly is a good boombox. Actually 10 out of 10 I recommend!
I have one too. Love it. I’m not sure you can even buy them anymore. I see some used ones on sale for like 2x what I paid for it!
best thing about lew, Everything is his favorite thing to Unbox
It should come with a perfect sized backpack
Ilir Krasniqi really?
Ilir Krasniqi - Just toss some straps on it.
Jonah Boodjarrat hi
There's one available on Amazon.
There is no such thing as too much bass.
Edgar Hernandez
😏
Edgar Hernandez bass is crazy loud , I love this unit
Tell that to your neighbours.
yes there is what you wanna listen to...just sine waves...dude too much bass IS a thing and its called clipping and unclean sound..more is never good so try to remain at the point where it is clean and where it is clean it is louder if you have the correct stuff
Dragon Rebass There’s never too much bass until you die from the decibel levels. Clipping can be avoided by using bigger amps.
Im so early that my alarm clock haven't waken me up yet
Steinnes For me it's 21:30
Me too :)
LetsBoost Me too!
Steinnes And im here at 22:45 :p
Triggering people in the Internet Same
June 2020 and still going strong!
didn't know Aiwa was still around! This brings back memories. Had a system of there's back in my university days, blasting turns in my dorm room!
Would be so much easier if he just linked the music to the desc. If you're gonna use someones music to enhance your videos, it should be a standard practice to link their work to the description.
I have no hear about Aiwa for a long time
Garage Rec @ that's because it was bought out by Sony in 2003 to until it was discontinued around 2006 or so......but I'm pretty sure Sony is not managing AIWA anymore.
chicago based company owns aiwa now
Been rockin an EXOS-9 for a few years now - absolutely love it. Fantastic for movies too! Take it to friends places without surround and BOOM baby.
I got mocked when I took a photo of my desk rocking 2 AIWA bookshelf speakers for being too 90's or something. I still consider them superior to most multimedia PC 2.1 speaker cancer.
AIAW is still around? thought they got bought out back in the early 2000's
bassblaster505 Apparently, and they sell high quality speakers
bassblaster505 They came back last year.
no, only AIWA
Zephyr0ner Oh I though they sold othe rmodels...
It’s grate to see a classic brand doing modern speakers
I remember Aiwa from back in the day when I had my old Hi-Fi system, I am definitely getting one of those Aiwa boombox
Lew, you need to o more of these price checks, because you usually get me excited for something out of my price range.
HokageNot! 300$ isn't that much... a beats pill is 200$ and it's shit. Stop complaining, this is great for the price.
tizoro3
I didn't particularly say this one. I was talking about like the video game one the backpack one.
If you aint talking about this one, then don't comment about it on THIS video.
Your both rude AF. He stated that some things are to pricey for the average tech head. Like a $2500 long board. Yeah electric and cool. But shit, thats almost a months rent. I get his point. @tizoro3 @Kyezie131
VicariousClouds I'm rude?
Imagine how loud it would be if you could add an amp to it 😂😁
HARKI SINGH this nigga
+unnamed it this nigga what
+David so
+HARKI SINGH has*
Hahahahaha, dude, the speakers are not being driven by magic. It allready has an amp inside, every powered speaker has.
Literally purchased this speaker after watching this and seeing the insane amount of positive reviews on Amazon, I must say that this thing is the absolute best portable speaker I've purchased! I would totally recommend it to everyone in the market! I will eventually purchase a second just for the link mode! Great Value!
Got mine a week ago and it bangs .. gotta order another 1 so i can really piss off the neighborhood lol!!
Same. Getting #2 with tax returns lol
Your always making me. ask for stuff for Christmas
K
i own this speaker and it's amazing debating on getting a second one because you are able to hook up two at once to play left and right and is incredibly loud but most importantly it does not lose distortion or quality even at max volume which is really impressive for how loud it gets and the price. 100% recommend and their support is great.
wtf aiwa still exists? i have plane old speakers from them and never heard of them again
Raven16691 they are back...
I just looked it up, well they are not really back.
I mean they were a japanese company, now some chicago company has the right to call themselves aiwa...
Just like Grundig, they were a german company and now the rights for the name are in turkey....
2019 still the champ in terms of price/performance. Loud balanced sound with no clipping=big win.
Yes I'm still using mine every single day and it rocks. I use it as my TV sound system and take it out in the backyard and play tunes from my phone. Sometimes take it with me. It's an all around great performer. Everyone that hears it is impressed. Aiwa nailed this one out of the park.
@@Wigglythegreat2 is it better that the big jam box?
@@raawwr6262 I really think there is no comparison between them. The Jambox is more portable, but the Aiwa should destroy the jambox in output and at loud volumes it maintains clarity and balance. I watch all kinds of reviews on Bluetooth speakers and I still don't see anything that can compete with the Exos 9 especially when you factor in the cost.
@@Wigglythegreat2 ahh Hell yea thanks! That's what I'm talkin about :) I've been looking around for something worth getting. I'll try this out
I've had this speaker for three years, and I'm still in love with it. Nothing but quality, and the sound is absolutely amazing. The ability to be able to take it anywhere is phenomenal. Great buy. You get what you pay for.
Do you still have it if so how's it working?
Any problems?
How the flying fuck is that beast portable?
Padded handle..
its light
Yeah, I have no doubt that it sounds great and can power through an outdoor party, but I need a much smaller footprint. I don't want to be carting around a microwave oven sized speaker everywhere I go, especially in the house from room to room.
“Yesteryear” bruh must be in 2020 game already
My exos-9 arrived today!!!amazed with the clarity and bass!!! Yeah its beefy but light and worth every penny
What is the last song in the video? It was fire
I NEED IT
Clayton sommerer m.soundcloud.com/yrocc/everyday
yes thank you man
I have a problem Lou... I cant stop the unboxed therapy!!
I've owned it for 1+ years now and I will never get tired of my Exos-9. I f'n love this thing.
Hey person scrolling through the comments, I hope you have a great day:)
Just a small message from a small youtuber❤️️
at least you tried
ageng giri you tried mate
Lew, I think you should release a "Lew's top 10" play list.😎💪🖒
Loved my Aiwa hi-fi walkman, had to jump on this retro-styled boombox, and it does NOT disappoint!
Lets try BASS 305 on that thing!
Bass 305 with its super low frequency will blow those speakers out. Don't do it man lol.
Is Blaupunkt still around? That would be a blast from the past too
They're still around, but their products are shit nowadays.
had aiwa for 10 years now still works like charm never felts like changing it
1:10 I felt super threatened so I just went a bought 2 off the rip.
You know what jack is the only champion around here
It is true !!!

MK Media hurricane sandstorm
FrostManFilms you mean darude sandstorm? XD sorry
Ah bet, thanks stranger.
DickOswald no i dont
MK Media m.soundcloud.com/yrocc/everyday
I can't afford that because my pocket is hurting
GumbaverianX usually people have two pockets reach in the other one
One of the first sound systems I got was an older Aiwa (Iowa?) setup from the 90s I got from my dad and it sounded amazing for years and years after it should have been outclassed so I'm not surprised this sounds amazing.
can i have a link to your speaker playlist?
Whats the song at 3:21 im going crazy trying to find it!
if you find it please do share.
Yes please
Brian Shneydman i too need that song
need it too
Brian Shneydman use shazam
Used to love Aiwa I’m glad there still around. Good loud affordable hifi’s
u can pair 2!!! Now im more interested!
I need your freaking music
Wow! I just got this speaker delivered and wow. Just wow! Thanks Lew
You had me till $399. And NEXT :(
It says in the description that it's actually $299
Kevin Weil 299 actually
Beats Lyrical ServiceQuick Online ok fine. He had me till $299. and Next
Kevin Weil explorer outback is like 150 and it does an amazing job
299 is not expensive at all for this stereo. Not only does it sound just as good, if not better than Bose, it is far cheaper as well with far better controls. Honestly, if I wasn't as busy as I am now, this would be the second product I ever purchased that he's reviewed.
the question is though, is it loud enough for a house party? 100 ish heads
Lucas Brown buy two just in case
Lucas Brown depends on the party. If it's younger people than probably not. It's it's older people 35+ then probs.
Lucas Brown hahaha 100 people are alot. This thing is for sure loud enough for a simple house party. Its not gonna blast the bass in your face, but it can give a housparty some vibe. If you want to have a rave id suggest to just borrow/rent a soundsystem with maybe 2 18-21" subswoofers and some nice tops for the highs.
Lucas Brown I think so he said you could pair multiple
If you pair 2 of this in a medium size house living room it's gonna give you enough sound for some dancing but if you really want to party get 2 tops and 1 sub and that should be more than enough.
I bought two of these as you can link them up and turn them into a stereo pair via Bluetooth. In a fairly large room, one in each corner (which will increase the bass more as they're rear ported) they're INCREDIBLY good. I A/B tested them with a pair of Devialet Phantoms and there wasn't much difference. They won't beat a huge sound system but for their size, you will be amazed how good they sound, especially if you use the custom EQ setting and up the bass.
someone tell me the song at 2:53 please
What's the song on 3:20??
Did uh got it ??
this will be my go to, chilling outside, movies & everything!!!. just a all around sound with the Bass I want to shake & feel... 👍👍👍💯🔥🔥
It looks light (Weight wise) which when it comes to speakers the best ones are always heavy.
Michael Bennett No they arent
I have one, it weighs like 15lb. There are heavier speakers, but not heavier speakers you would want to carry around with you.
Lol why tf would you suddenly just judge its sound based on how heavy it LOOKS to be in the video??
what u are saying is true. the heavier the speaker is the better it sounds. it's because of the elements inside, which is better the heavier they are.
Ole J. Moen it depends, as a rule bigger magnets and amps sound better and weigh more. but it is far from a 1:1 relationship.
Aiwa? what is this 1999
Kevin Clover chill guy, not that serious. Do you rage this hard on first dates?
Yo y'all are annoying
Kevin Clover woooooaaahhh someone is a little salty
This speaker is dope. I've had one for 5 months. Hasn't failed and it bumps.
@5:27 Can you tell me the track/artist name? Thanks.
anyone know the music at 5:20?
I copped one for Christmas. It's probably the best Bluetooth speaker. The range is slightly more than 50 feet and the battery definitely last longer than described. Worth the 💰
song at the end: soundcloud.com/yrocc/everyday
That's not it.
what is the song name at 5:19
I thought Aiwa was dead. Wow. They were my favorite walkman manufacturer and I had their mini HiFi
Actually the pronouncing of the word "aiwa" means in Egypt yeah 😃
Mohamed Bikary Actually in all arabic accents it means yeah/yes 😊
Mr. Sky Shark you're right but there are other more used words than aiwa in certain countries
Mohamed Bikary could easy turn to a haiwan 😂
DEADLIFT ADDICT hahahah damn right !
