Right now I have a really old cd player in my car. I want to get good new one but don't want to spend over $150.
What should I look for in a new cd player? I would like my sound to be a little louder and a bit clearer.
For example should I go for the highest RMS x channels? There is a nice Pioneer unit which has 22RMS, for $140, but then I also saw a sony unit for around $160 but it only has 17RMS. So will the pioneer be much better than the sony, or do different things influence the power and sound quality?
I would like the receiver to have a usb adapter on it. Right now I am looking at:

Thanks for any advice!
