    What are you opinions on DUAL?

    I was just wondering if dual is a good brand to get. I saw a nice deck at walmart but not sure if it is a good buy or not. I included a picture and the description of it. It's a Dual 200-Watt AM/FM/CD/MP3/WMA Receiver With Bluetooth.




    * Plays HD/AM/FM/CD/MP3/WMA/CD-R and CD-RW
    * 50W x 4 max power output
    * Built-in HD radio tuner and iPod control via USB with iTunes tagging
    * Built-in HD radio tuner; CD-R/CD-RW compatible; MP3/WMA encoded playback
    * Electronic detachable face; black/white dot matrix LCD; front panel Aux-In and USB inputs
    * Electronic volume, bass, treble, fader and programmable turn-on volume
    * 5 selectable EQ curves - pop/jazz/classic/beat/rock/clock/mute and
    loudness
    * 1-DIN chassis


    Any kind of opinions are accepted.

    It's a cheap brand...depends what you're looking to get out of it.

    I mean, will it probably do everything it says, sure but it's not going to do anything great, if you know what I mean.

    If you're not a hardcore audiophile, it'll probably be acceptable.

      Don't do it. There flip screens are ok, but the one your lookin at is junk. I bought that several months ago and it died within a day. Returned it and got another and it died 2 days later. Well the deck itself didn't die but the face mechanizms jammed up and quit.

      I took the second one back and got the typical Sony and am very happy.

      GOT F?

          a thing about sony i noticed is that they tend to spit cd's back out when the deck gets a lil old...good radios except for that...

            I see. I was debating about getting it but not really sure so that is why i asked the question. Well, I guess i be heading towards alpine then.

                  So now dual is not on the list anymore.
                  My brother told me that alpine is a great brand to get.
                  But what about kenwood? Heard a lot about them.
                  Do they make great products or are they kind of like dual?

                        Bro, why Dual?
                        I would rather get some cheap Pioneer.

                          i got my kenwood BT742U for 169.99 and LOVE IT! does everything I need it to and more.. you get what you pay for. I was tempted to go with Alpine, but have always had alpine in my cars, so I opted for something different and would rank it up there with alpine.
