Sony was 1997, so they may have improved. My Alpine was bought in 2003.

My Dad had a Sony head unit in his old Golf, cd's were fine but radio reception was terrible. I know others that have said the same. My Alpine has both good cd and clear radio reception.

at lower end you wont notice much difference TBH. Only in bigger instals or at higher volumes will you notice a difference in SQ.

out of those two id go for SONY. Their new stuff is improving loads. Not rivaling the big guns yet, but a defo improvement.
