It has a simple and clean design that will fit in just about anywhere and the build quality is excellent (very solid sturdy unit) I went around the speaker with a fine tooth comb, not a mark on it not even a finger print! I do enjoy the Exos 9’s EQ capabilities, which let you adjust the sound signature using both presets or manually, letting you get the sound closer to your personal preferences.

The playlists are different for Spotify, Tidal and Youtube, and based on the songs I enjoy and are available on each!

The treble is really smooth, and doesn’t have much of a sparkle or presence, but you can EQ that from the built-in EQ of the speaker, which means that you can enjoy a much more sparkly and enjoyable speaker if you take a few moments to tweak it. This being said, the speaker doesn’t have a mono kind of sound, and it actually sounds pretty spacey but for a true stereo sound, you can connect two, and things will be even better.

If you haven’t yet read my review on the Exos 9, I recommend that you do as I will be making references to that review.

This sound is especially impressive in the low end, where there is a significant amount of bass thanks to the 6. Every opinion expressed is mine and I stand by it, the purpose of this review is to help those interested in AIWA EXOS 9 find their next music companion. In terms of aesthetics, I think the speaker is not a real looker, and actually it is a half-half situation with it, it has cool aesthetics, but only if you like it. The speaker weighs a whopping 13 lbs, which is honestly less than what we would have guessed by its 7.
