Eh. Some folks say they are good...but I'm not one of them. They are know for making low priced feature packed units. You get what you pay for. Quality control on their stuff is iffy at best from the units I have seen/installed.
If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

I used to have a duel headunit but i did not have thier ts headunit. If you want an inexpensive good ts monitor headunit go with Jensen. I have had no problems with mine.

I agree 100000% Dual sucks hardcore. They are like the Wal-Mart of car audio, they get there stuff made by the lowest bidder in China.

Edit: I heard some Insignia subwoofers in BB the other day, and they didn't sound half bad. They were 12" 600w RMS ones. Of course that was in the store and not in a car....

was it the black or silver ones, the black ones are actually the power accustic FUBAR's, they are DVC subs and only sound good with a power accustic amp (or the grey insignia amp which is also a PA piece)

i'm not a fan of Dual either. save yourself the trouble and headaches and just buy something that won't crap out on you in a couple months.

They were the black ones, that is cool that PA makes some of Insignia's car audio.
