Does anyone know anything about Dual brand speakers and if they are any good? I know there are a lot of praised brands out there but these speakers are the only ones I've found that have a neon glow and i really like that aspect of it because i don't want to have to go through all the tearing apart parts of the car and wiring to get a nice glow inside. Here are some that I'm talking about: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1118843709711

 

When it comes to car audio i would go for more sound quality, than looks. Those are crap speakers it wont last long. Dual hasnt been in the industry that long. Some of their dvd players are decent but other than that dont waste your money on those speakers. Like the say you pay for what you get for.

 

well what about these: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1165610937916

What exactly should I be looking for to know if speakers are any good?

 

You are looking for RMS wattage the higher the better. Alot of speakers will say 250 max watts but thats for a single hit. But only pushing 45 RMS. The RMS is the constant power. (meaning better sounding). Umm infinitys are great alpines are good. I think Ecplices are the best but expensive. The pioneers will do if u have a tight budget. (i understand). Also what ever u do dont get sony xpods. Its all up to your ears and what u like. Go around and listen to the displays and other peoples cars thats a way to go.

 

Dual is worse than Xplods. There is a post that deals with this and what me and phsxt finally came up with is okay. Eclipse, Polk, JL, JBL and Alpine are good. Morel the best in my eyes but out of your budget (600-1,800) for door speakers and componets. Infinity okay along with pioneer, not the good stuff but not bad either. It depends what you want, bass or clairity.

 

dual suks they blow out easy. i dnt recommend them

 

well i'm definitely going for clarity over bass. my brother always had his system set up where all you heard was bass vibrating the whole neighborhood and you couldn't even hear the music...i don't understand him lol. but if the pioneers are "just ok" i guess i'll check out alpines and some others. what RMS and watt numbers are considered good quality? like these for instance? http://www.cardomain.com/item/JBLGTO937

 

theyre crap period, but they have pretty lights sometimes that catch unsuspecting people

 

For clairity look here https://dodgeforum.com/m_696052/tm.htmsome of those brands are good. Like I said I think Morel know what to do to make a car sound good but is likely out of your price range. If I didn't have them I might go with Eclipse or Alpine.

 

but what's a good RMS and watt number to look for? because i've seen eclipse ones that are at the same numbers as the Dual ones
