stay away from sony man. there is pineer stuff runing for the same price and its a much better quality. sony makes good home audio but they are lacking big time in the mobile audio section. do you homework you will find i'm not the only one saying this.

I had one of the newer Sony X-Plod' recievers in my last car.. It would skip constantly when it was cold, and the volume knob never worked quite right.

definitely stick with a kenwood or pioneer for a base level cd player that'll sound good.

Go pioneer not sony. I had trouble with their amps....very poor sound quality so I'd definantly stick to somethin' else. Pioneer is the same price but a lot better quality!!

Sounds nice....I just put a MTX 81000D running 2 15" MTX 8000's in the back of my club cab the other day. It sounds great....I always had 10's before (up to 4 at a time in the club cab) and these 15's blow them away. I bet yours will rock with 4 of them!!

I would go with Alpine before anything else for a head unit. For speakers you should alway spend the extra money. It's well worth it. I would go with some Infinity's
