Hi, I currently have a sony deck (basic) that I installed 1 year back with new speakers, it sounds horrible, no bass (I've played with all the settings, etc)
The deck is the issue, and I'm looking to replace it, any suggestions regarding brands? Not going back to sony, and planning on speding $100-180 or so for the deck.
What are the top brands atm? thanks for any suggestions, I'll be looking at past threads to see what others have found.

I like the Clarion CZ401 if you are looking for a solid deck on a budget ($150 with dash kit and harness), and this is gonna be what I'm putting in my car: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...ion-CZ401.html
CD Player with MP3/WMA, HD Radio tuner with iTunes tagging (and gets good reception, FM tuner has -8dBf sensitivity), front USB port (Direct iPod/iPhone, and also Direct USB Mass Storage support for USB flash drive or portable hard drive), front 3.5mm jack, 3 sets of 4V preamp outs, Parametric EQ, built in HPF/LPF, Remote Control Included. Also Sirius-ready with external tuner (+$65).

i would definitely go with an Alpine head unit.
a nice double Din one would be sweet.
but Alpine has great sound.
Sony Usually does, but other wise Pioneer would be a good call.
JVC is Garbage.

Re: Car Deck Suggestions
I have a pinoneer deck i put in around christmas, it was fairly expensive but the sound is great, and the look is super clean. It is a multi-media deck (therefore no CD's anymore!!!) great for usb, and ipod/iphone support. and has an sd card slot behind the controls.

the only thing i dislike about my unit, is the fact that it is very hard to select things, its very hard to press the center button, takes atleats 2 fingers to support both sides of the circle. but i do like the deck a lot. anyway, thats just my case!

If you go pioneer, beware of motorized faces. I had to replace my flex cable ribbon deep inside the deck. I made a thread on here on it too. A combination of Texas heat and sunbathing contributed to that so keep in mind your environment if you get a motor face.
