Does brand matter purely in terms of sound reproduction?

[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8766855, member: 614752"] Jensen head units have always been pretty decent. I'd avoid the gutter brands (Boss, Soundstream, or any **** you never heard of) at all costs. They perform poorly and fail quickly. I have personally noticed noise floor issues just in the entry level line of good brands like Kenwood or Pioneer vs middle of the road and higher offerings. Depending on everything else you have it may or may not prove an audible difference in your car but out of everything the source unit is the absolute last bit you want to cheap out on when buying. I've had great results with Sony head units and they seem very fairly priced for their features. If you absolutely must see for yourself how bad the cheap ones **** please buy from someplace with a good return/exchange policy. [/QUOTE]
