I personally haven't had problems with an Pioneer deck i've used in 16 years, but have had a ton of problems with Alpine in the past. For the record i run Pioneer in 2 of my 3 cars, the other is an Alpine, which hasn't had any problems yet, but it's only a year old, both pioneers are about 6 years old. The Alpines i did have problem,s with were years ago, cheap to high end and with in a few months.
