Sony all the way, Ive had other decks, but Sony seems the best.
I look for features and Sony always seems to have exactly what I need.
Ive had one Sony deck for 10 years, thats enough to convince me.
Current one in my car ive had for 5 years. It has 3 sets of pre-outs, 1 is sub control with hi-pass built in, has CD/MD changer controls which means that even though its a older unit with no MP3, I can now connect Sony's new add on MP3 changer to it directly and use the controls built into the deck
I also have added Sonys RF version of the 10 disk MP3 changer to my factory radio in my Lexus so I can play MP3 in there now as well.

From a reliability and sound quality standpoint, I think Alpine, Clarion, and Eclipse are very good. I never use the internal amps on any head unit so power to me doesn't matter. I look for ease of use too in the layout. Some of the units have so many damn buttons, bells and whistles all over the place, they are a pain to control when driving.
