    How the heck does one say “AJA?” I get so embarrassed talking about this stuff, does one say just the letters? Or try to pronounce it, and how? ASIA? AHJAH?

    Silly I know, but confusing.

    Aye Jay Aye (say each letter seperately).

    With that said, I still always stupidly say ASIA.

    [Chris Poisson] “How the heck does one say “AJA?””

    they had tshirts at NAB 2 years ago that gave all of the pronunciations

    the tag line was something like:
    ” it means Quality, no matter how you pronounce it”

    Bob is correct, spell the letters out.

    As a Steely Dan fan, I like their pronounciation.

    Incidentally, a little trivia, each letter of the company stands for each of the names of the owner’s kids. Good kids, too!
