[QUOTE="adam71, post: 5496290, member: 549079"] Unfortunately electronics are not fail proof. PERIOD. I suggest anyone stick with a brand that has done them well over the years. My choice is Pioneer because their track record with me. Others have had good luck with different brands and I suggest they stick with them. It's all about preference and sadly enough, luck. I agree it is sad about Panasonic. But more importantly it is a sad day for ALL mobile electronics. I mean who says they aren't just the first of many to get out of that market?? I hope not but whose to say with today's economy. I think Pana's biggest downfall was a lack consumer confidence in the car audio market. Most viewed them as "bargain" or "good bang for the buck". It's just the way it is I guess. Pioneer, Alpine and Eclipse have a SOLID reputation as "high end" aftermarket mobile audio mfgs. I think that has hurt Panasonic AND Kenwood for the most part.
