全功能旗艦

AM-F1，有著開山始祖的型號名稱，其實已是Aiwa第二世代機型。

橫貫機身液晶螢幕與皆置中對稱的Logo擺位，整體鋪陳如理想風水學般的端莊正坐格局，並出操作與顯示的機能區隔。

恆亙機身的縱長液晶螢幕，曲目、狀態、時間等無須切換一目了然的強大顯示性能，頗可惜REC Level卻顯小巧到堪用的辨識度。螢幕有著極其罕見的MD初　背光照明*，乍看不甚特別優異的機能，但MD史上本功能可能不超過10機型。機面的銀色主操作鍵頗貼心地於插電時會背光照明便於操控。也配備獨立的光纖輸出 / 入。

MD特有的光磁原理，可簡單隨意地對將錄音內容執行合併、分割、移動、抹除，也支援文字輸入功能，展現強大編輯性能。

F1還率先推出了MD初　Mono REC，以單聲道形式錄音讓原本74分光碟躍升至200%的148分，在MD空白片尚屬天價的初期*，對於如會議、演講等非音樂用途解決了錙銖必較的時間壓力痛點。還貼心地搭載了x2快速撥放。

Aiwa卡帶隨身聽特色的LED電量顯示於MD現身，隨著電量三等分(E、M、F)連動顏色變化直接直覺地掌握電量狀態。

配備無螢幕的多功能線控，遺憾的是耳機與線控為一體式設計，日後耳機使用的耗損上就得連同線控一起更換。

新型鋰充電池，高效的1.5小時充電擁有2.5小時續航，併用外接電池盒(AAx 3)可達6.5小時。

*初代MD如MZ-1等機型雖具背光照明，但都得於插電時才作用。

Full Spec Flagship

From its model number, you might mistakenly think that it is the first product.

The LCD screen on the body spans horizontally, and the logo is symmetrically placed in the center, creating an ideal feng shui-like layout. The body is cut in half to separate the operational and display functions. As a subsidiary of Sony, Aiwa's design is similar to its competitor, Sharp.

The long LCD screen on the body shows tracks, status, and time without the need for switching. However, the dynamic display is simplified to a usable degree.

The screen has an extremely rare MD initial backlight.*

The main buttons also have a considerate backlighting feature, although it requires electricity to function. The machine also comes with a rare fiber optic digital output and a single unit remote control without a screen, which unfortunately means that the remote control needs to be replaced together with the headphones in the future.

In the expensive blank MD era of 1993*, F1 was the first to introduce the initial Mono recording mode, which increased the maximum recording time from 74 minutes to 148 minutes, solving the time pressure pain point for non-music recording purposes such as meetings. Additionally, it also thoughtfully features the x2 fast playback function.

The LED battery level indicator, which is Aiwa's signature feature in portable cassette players, has also been extended to MD. The battery level is indicated by three levels (E, M, F), with corresponding colors, providing users with a thoughtful reminder of the battery level status.

Aiwa's technology is the best representation of this machine.

*The first-generation MD models, such as the MZ-1, have backlighting, but it only works when plugged in.
