Never heard of it . but being sold by best buy, just get the extended warranty deal and your set for 3-4 years. That warranty is smash it with a hammer and we will replace it type.

I believe "Dual" is Best Buy's house brand.

I'm leaning towards the Alpine head unit, still havent made upo my mind yet

Dual=cheap low end brand, nowhere near the quality or class of alpine, and alot cheaper.
I would also consider the Pionner head units(they make a 6dvd in dash player), if you are looking for something less expensive i would go with Jenses or Audiovox before Dual

i think im going with the alpine IVA-W200. I've always liked alpine and like i said i don't need gps. What do you think???

Alpine is never cheap, and always a good choice, we have the w200 in the FJ right now
