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.

Dude, Sony Car audio should be casted away and burned....If you want pure looks, go for it, but for the same price, get pioneer or lower ended alpine products.

Class D means that it uses energy more efficiently and will give more power without sapping your battery in minutes, which most amps non class D are notorious for. However, distortion is usaully a bit higher in class D amps. Hope this helps. Oh yeah, Sony is still junk

What the hell is a Sony "xblod" amp? Isn't it xPlod? :naughty: Just look on the amp cover, it's funny as hell. Suprised no one else noticed it.

Yo he's right, that amp is FAKE!!! XBlod....HAHAHAHA That's why that auction post never says "SONY" on it also, because it isn't an XPlod.

I have a Memphis 650 Bridgeable amp and it does great.
