I want to buy a car stereo but I can't decide which one should I get the pioneer or the sony.
I would like to know which one offers best sound quality the pioneer stereo specification says that its a 200W 180W maximum power handling or 30W nominal power.
And the Sony Xplod says 17 watts RMS x 4 at 4 Ohms<1% THD+N
SN Ratio: 80 dBA (reference: 1 watt into 4 Ohms)
I would like to know which one would be the best in sound quality and compatibility with a 4 way pioneer speakers 400W max.

Here is the link for the pioneer stereo

and the manual
http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/Manuals/Car/DXT-2266UB_OwnersManual0607.pdf

and here is the link for the sony xplod stereo
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sony-Xplod-CDX-GT35UW-Car-CD-Receiver/14956451
its manual can be found in the same page, just scrolling down.

Please I need some help in making the right choice. Im thinking mostly in getting the sony because it has a great usb feature which lets you go through each file in a folder or subfolder without picking songs randomly like other stereos, but it only says 17 watts rms and the pioneer is 180 w maximum power or 30W nominal power, but i don't know if its usb function will work properly.
