Yeah dual is pretty much crap. Pep boys carries it to, they have a line of "Illuminite" speakers and subs that have blue neon lights on them...I guess someone is trying to outdo audiobahn in the tacky marketing gimmick department. I have heard the dual 12" subs ion the bandpass box. Sounds like crapppppp.

Dual used to be a very highly respected German company, but they went bankrupt in 2001. A Korean company (Namsung ) purchased the rights to use the name and anything you see today with the name "Dual" on it is very low-end.

i sell clarion and dual. i think dual is an ok product, but its a low line. i carry clarion pro audio, which is one of my high lines, but the regular clarion amps are very low line as well. ha, i think my cost on their 400 watt mono amp is under a $100, ha. so it could be possible that the dual sounds better.
