need a couple of thoughts

[SS Saint]

So what is everyone's thoughts on Dual 10in subs? i'm considering buying sum...

[90_ACCORD]

well it all depends on what kind you looking at getting.

what kind of amp you running to them.

just stuff like that.

theres really no straight answer anyone can give off of your question.
like any kind of sub no matter size. there are really good ones and really bad ones

[JoshM]

Dual brand? Or dual (as in 2) subs?

If you're referring to the brand, pass.

[J3wman]

brand sucks, if ur gonna do x2 10" subs then alpine type R is great!

i agree.

but did you mean the brand or just 2 in general?

[JoshM]

Some what pricey, but great subs.

[90_ACCORD]

just about any well known sub is gonna be pricey. it also depends where your gonna be buying it from

Amazon.com has great prices.
I bought 2 pairs of Type-S speakers (shipped) for $15 less than retail price of 1 pair.

i usually go to onlinecarstereo.com some things cost the same as the store while others are way cheaper. plus spend over 100 and you get free shipping. i got my amp on there brand new for 75 dollars less than if i had gotten it in the store.

You may want to look around on hookedontronics.com They have some decent prices on stuff sometimes and free shipping on pretty much all of their subs. Personally I would pass on buying Dual brand anything but that's just me. You can normally find kicker on sale where you can buy one get one or something similar. I've put a few of the subs through hell and they just kept on going.

if you can find a great kicker out there for a decent price. i would definitly get it. ive never heard anything but good things about them. i would love to get some but dont have any money right now to get them. ive had a couple friends with some and damn there great. one day ill have some ha

Yeah we had a store called CKR in Alabama that i used to get my stuff from. They almost always had sales on Kicker where it was buy one get one or buy one and get the second one for half off. Sometimes they would even throw in a box for free. The box was pre-fab but it was ported and did it's job for the time being until I could get a better one made. I tried to post a link to their page but it's not wanting to work. Just google ckr and it'll show it. Image Dynamics used to make some good subs too. They were made to fit in small enclosures and hit pretty hard. Hell they put two 12's behind the seat of a regular cab Ford Ranger. Crystal, Alphasonik, and Autotek are worth looking into also. I haven't heard the Crystal or Alphasonik speakers in person but i've heard nothing but good things about them. Autotek used to have an SS series 12 that a friend of mine had. He had two of the SS 12's in a ported box and they beat the shit out of me. They make good amps too from what i've seen.

Dual brand = CRAP!

[Jon]

Dual brand = CRAP!

X2. Never heard anything that sounded all that good coming from any of their stuff.

Now if we are talking about dual (as in two) 10", it's all personal choice. If you are looking for some added thump just go with a single 12" ported.

My personal tastes, go with good components and eliminate the need for huge subs... but that's just me.

[Brandoncb7]

1 component in the kick panels, 1 in the doors, and 1 12 in a ported box is pretty much what i'm going for. I used to have a 15 and had a few sets 10's. The 15 was great but I need my trunk for more than just a big ass box and amps. The 10's were alright but I always kept wanting more out of them. Like someone else said, whatever you do buy quality stuff and shop around before you make any final decisions. My friend used to get cheaper stuff and by the time he was on his 3rd set of 12's my two beat up Kickers with holes in the surround were still pounding the shit out of my car.
