    You guys sound like people that hate all black folks because one black guy did something to wrong you. My complete Jensen system(headunit, subs, amps, component speakers, wires, Sirius receiver and amp kit) that I had in 2 cars for over 4 years never gave me one problem. And paying a total of $200 off various sellers on Ebay for all brand new shit was not a problem at all for me, either. I'd give it a shot. Later, QD.

    if i were putting a new reciver in a car i would just go with a head unit but i got a 2000 Tundra and i was looking to put in a monitor.

    I did some research and the dual that walmart sells is the XDVD700. if you go to duals website you cant even find that model which kinda worries me but id say all they advertise is their top of the line. The only difference i found in all of their in dash units is their best was XM ready, Blue Tooth, and IPod capable <<XDVD8381 i believe. the XDVD700 is exactly the same minus the Blue Tooth and XM.

    on walmart.com i found several other brands. Jensen and i believe an Alpine and theres not a whole lot of price difference. You can have anything off their website shipped to any walmart you want and you wont have to pay for shipping. Just gotta decide what i want now.

    No sir I mean I'm not trying to knock Dual or Jensen, just saying where I work we sell Panasonic flip outs by the tons. We also get calls say oh my dual/jensen went to hell, what do you have that is cheaper than Alpine with the same quality. All I am trying to throw out there is you get what you pay for. I wouldn't buy one of those cheaper brands just because I know what we have at my work that competes on the same level as an Alpine but just cheaper. Yet again to each their own right? Anyhow whatever you chose to buy goodluck with it. Didn't mean to come off as an ass or anything..

    Oh and QD i have approx. 600 in my stereo. Alpine head unit (newest one out), Rockford Fosgate amp kit, Diamond Audio Technologies D1 Amp, 2 Diamond Audio Technologies D1 10's.

    dude, i work at wally world (the new one off of powder springs rd. in marietta) and if i were you, i would try the jensen. i heard from alot of customers that its really great. we have them at my store and they only cost $398. i havent really heard much about the dual one though

    and if you buy it and you dont like it for whatever reason, you can return it within 60 or 90 days. thats the electronics return policy

    so yeah

Id LOVE to have alpine but if the panasonics are as good and in my price range ill get one of those.

    i will check the price on the panasonic one tomorrow when i go into work at 2

    every wally world can set their own prices, so some stuff that may be high priced at one wal-mart, might be cheap at another just have to kinda look around

    no, i worke a circuit city and unfortunately we carry jensen products. when it comes to car audio, to a certain point you get what you pay for. you dont have to spend the money on jl products to get good sound, but jensen, dual, pyle, phase linear, pyramid, most car audio brands you havent heard of before that you can find on ebay, or any other crap that you can find at the flea market isn't something that i would put in my car and if one of my friends installed it i would have to kick them in the nuts.
