Alpine - Eclipse - Pioneer
but I have had a hard time with Apline radio reading certain disks ie (dbjams cd) |
alpine-pioneer-eclipse-kenwood...I have no luck with sony. Alpine's been the best for me since 1984, never had a problem. Pioneer and Eclipse about the same, both required repairs after the warranty period, and Kenwood needed repairs (2 times) and had oddball issues like shuting down for no reason, and lcd blips. Only Sony has had more failures as far as decks are concerned. All my Alpines worked for years, and were working until I sold them or the car. I still have a fully functional 7390 tape deck from 1990, and not only their decks, I'm currently using 2-3502 amps from 1990 as well in my system. If used as intended, they can last a long time.

Agrees i owned a sony deck several years ago and paid near 250 for it, adn it lasted me a good three years and changed it just for something new, gave the sony to a friend and it still works perfect after buying 5-6 years ago. Its not how you play it its how you misplay it.

Both Sony decks that have been in peoples vehicles that I know are POS'
Id never consider sony car audio. ( and yes at one point I did have an amp too, one of those X shaped ones think it was 760 watts, or claimed.) |
honestly it's personal experience that leads me to my choices. My sister has had an Xplod in her car for 6 years now and it's still like new, and she has never had a problem with it either. I've had bad luck with them since back in the day, so I won't risk it, but if you've had good luck with them...why not. They sound as good as any other deck!

I'm A sony hater but.... for a 200 dollar budget it is a very good option - its all about bang for your buck right? they can be a very good option for people with a budget (or any common sense - sorry im bitter, my deck is fubar right now) i have run sony in the past and have never had any problems and all my sony products lasted for at least 5 years. That being said it is still low end in comparison to other brands.
