I have an AIWA NSX-DS55. It has been in storage for almost 2 years. I hooked it up today in my house, and no music will come through the speakers. The unit is plugged in and all the speaker connections (sub, L/R front, Center, and L/R surround) are correct. The unit functions properly in all other aspects, (display, CD shuffle, tape, FM/AM etc.)
I have reset the unit per the owners manual, and still nothing. I thought perhaps the speakers might be damaged due to excessive heat of storage unit (100+, but I can hear a very faint hiss coming through all speakers.
the unit started working miraculously a few hours later, without doing anything to it. It has worked well, with the exception of the rear surround speakers which work sporadically, perhaps a Dolby setup on certain DVD's? When playing CD's the rear surround sound distant and have an echo.
Further, today there was a crunchy hissing sound coming from all speakers when playing a CD that plays perfectly in other players. I turned of he surround feature, which helped, a little, then took out all the extra bass from the front speakers which helped more, but it was still there.

Re: No sound from stereo
If you can hear a hiss then the spkrs and amp are OK. It sounds like you're not on whichever source you're wanting to hear or it is on mute. Make sure ther is no function enabled that turns the sound off or over-rides it (like a tape monitor or AUX in...).

Sounds like the power supply is shot. You can buy a new power supply, but that would require pro level re-wiring inside the stereo. I'd get a new one, aiwa doesn't make good stereo's anyways. Go with pioneer
aiwa typical issue. loved my aiwa's sound hated the stereo. my volume control knob did the same thing and i had to order a new control.
please take time to rate,
good luck

Same model, same problem. (CX NA-50) I have one that worked great for two years (at best) and I haven't used it since then. I recently decided to look for a solution via the internet.
I read somewhere else that there was a class action settlement with aiwa (now expired) since many of these units had this problem.
