I've never had any problems with Sonys. The Sony CD player I have has outlasted 2 of the 3 vehicles it's been in. Still sounds great. The Sony Xplod 200w amp I have works great, but overheats and cuts out in the Texas summers. I've had Blaupunkt, Eclipse, Clarion, and even a Dr. Crankenstein, and the Sony outperforms them all.

You go, Sony. You go with your bad self.
