Customer Ratings & Reviews

My first system

Ordered these back in 08, and they outplayed my friend's setup which was 2 CVRs and a p2. The bandpass box makes these subs kings compared to most subs in normal boxes. I would highly recommend these for anyone on a budget or just looking for a starter system. I never had a problem with these babies.

Love Em

They look amazing!!! Everyone thinks that they are like $700 subs. They sound awesome too. Great for beginners. I'm using a Pioneer Premier Amp which is a $215 amp, that is probably why they sound so much better

Great Buy

I bought this box on thursday got it on tuesday it took 3 days to arrive which is fast. I replaced the dual woofers with 2 1200 watt Titanium Power woofers as soon as I received the box, so I don't know how the dual woofers sounded. Hooked them up to a crunch powerzone 2000 watt amp and it sounds great. The inside of the box does look like its made from cheap wood, I didn't like that. If you are looking to replace the dual woofers same as me its a pain but it can be done. And for those wondering about the wires you need to make the lights work you need the ground and the 12 volt wires which don't come with the box, it also has a on and off switch for the lights which I found really helpful. Overall great buy you wont be disappointed, definitely recommend to anyone.

great sound and looks

I got these subs from b*** *** for a lot more money, but thats ok. i originally just got it for the box but after i heard the subs hit with my 1000 watt amp, i was hooked. and i have a lot of blue neon in the cab of my truck so it looks great. definitely the best bang for ur buck.

Dual Enclosure

This enclosure will hit hard, with the right amplifier, but it will not sound the greatest. There will be some rattle, but overall there will be great sound coming from this enclosure.

Great Starter Product!!

I own the previous model. Its a great speaker, but it is not the best. Everyone who rode with me really loved the lights, which is its key selling point. The only problem with this sub is when you get to higher levels of volume it will bottom out. The plexiglass also sounds bad at high levels. But this speaker will shake your car. I upgraded to the mtx terminator. But this was an awesome subwoofer!

Really Good!!!

If you get this I HIGHLY recommend you use it with a Dual XIA series amp! Dual makes 3 different models in the XIA series. 580 watt 2-channel, 800 watt 2-channel and a 1000 watt 2-channel. These are there high-end amps and were built just for this enclosure as they offer direct hook-ups for the illuminate lights...
Many people read and hear alot of garbage about the Dual BP1204 and Dual in general... They say its W****** brand trash, well for starters, the Dual amps that you see in your local w****** are made for "Component Speakers" NOT subwoofers!! ALL of Duals products are CEA-2006 compliant so you can trust their max and rms ratings... Brands such as Pyramid, Legacy, Boss, Crunch, Power Acoustik and Pyle are NOT CEA-2006 compliant .. As a word of advice, Stay away from anything that isn't CEA-2006 compliant! I love this enclosure with subs!! but you really need to match it with a DUAL XIA series amp for best performance and quality!

pretty sweet I wont lie

I just installed the BP1204 in my 04 taurus. I must say it kicks pretty hard. I have it amplified by the Hifonics ZXI 6010 pushing out 600 watts RMS bridged at 4 ohms. I am impressed and pleased with it.

YO YO YO

In all honesty these subs blow!!!! They are a cheap set up for every average beginner they will not last a beginner due to the fact that when you get your first subs you always want more bass!! In doing so they will cause the subs not saying they are over powered but will cause them to blow due to clipping the signal to the amp which will blow them do your self a favor buy some subs and a amp with a good set up and save your self the trouble of blowing a cheap set. Unless your 50 with grand kids then go for it!! :)

great for low price

i have had this product in booth ways with the dual bandpass box in a full size van and in two small angled boxes behind a truck seat and they have don well in booth

Awesome

I believe this product is awesome. I have had it for almost 2 years. I hooked it up to a kenwood amplifier which sends 500rms to the woofers. The subwoofer's are so loud, that they make car alarms go off. Everything in my car shake including my radar detector. I have researched. These are the subwoofer's you want; affordable and amazing sound to it. I get compliments all the time.

user for almost 2 years

i received these subs for my 17th birthday and had them professionally installed and they sound great! they hit a wide range of notes and they hit hard. i have just a 1000 watt sony xplod amp hooked up to them and everyone that has sat in my car asks how much i paid for them and they couldn't believe me when i told them. they are an amazing bang for your buck! worth every penny.
PROS:
1. very durable (especially inside all of that pexi glass!).
2.easy to hook up with the built in crossover.
3. last forever as long as you dont push them over the power rating.
4.they look very clean with the nice box they are in

CONS:
1. setting off car alarms ha

I LOVE MY DUALS

I bought these a while back from another store and my buddy bought a set off here, and I bought the other set from him cause he gave them up to me. Right now have 2 of these boxes in my truck; "loud" doesn't even begin to explain the sound I'm getting. You need to see just how insane these things are and my volume is only at 10 it can go up to 40 but these bad boys are well worth the money. I've had them a little over 2 years now and they still perform like champs.

Dual Subwoofers

I love these subs. They have great sound quality and they look amazing. I highly recommend this product.

great sub boxes

i have two of these boxes in my truck at the momment hooked up to a kinda week amp cause i can't find an amp thats 1200rms for under 500 but these subs are great the box is really durable my one sub box was one of the only things that made it through my role over accident last dec and the sound outta these boxes is just unreal deep hard bass doesn't even explain it great product

Great Speakers

I have had these speakers for probably close to 6 months and they are awesome! I have those and two MTX 10' powered by a 1000 watt sony x-plod amp and they hit realll hard! I can be heard coming down the road! This is a great product and recommend it to anyone for the price

good buy for begginers in car audio

if you are just starting out and want a little more bass out of your system without breaking your wallet then this is the system for you. it will put out if not put in a sealed trunk but is perfect for thoes little hatchbacks. enough to make you feel the music but not something that is going to turn heads

Love them!!!

I drooled over these subs for weeks before I could get them, with their futuristic look and illuminite capabilities I was ecstatic to finally get them. They were everything I thought there were going to be and then some! They hit super hard light up super bright and push air out so hard I shreaded a piece of paper haha it was cool. I love the bandpass enclosure and the whole look of the box and would recommend it to anyone. 10/10!

Dual subs

These subs are very good for my first subs and i wish yall could have sent me the wires for the light hook up.

Great look!

It's really great to have as a sub if your not into making the neighbors wake up or make the cars shake around you. its great for just you pleasure or your friends in the car. Also its definitely cool when you pop your trunk and your sub is lit up! not many people have something like that and people really think its awesome.

They Bump!

I was a little bit concerned not buyin a well known brand....completely threw that idea away when I hooked them up & got them tuned for my car. If you have a hatch style car, It's even better! More Bass, U get to ACTUALLY see the Lights, My friends ( especially the girls) Love the lights.

dual bp's

installed these for my cousin..hes only 16 and just got his first car. he loves them and how they glow. overall the subs are a little overpriced for its performance but if you're like my cousin, and you'd rather have it for looks..id get it

DUAL IS GREAT SUPER BASS

These subs are amazing I was a little hesistant seeing as i finally had the money for kickers and getting an even bigger system but these things are amazing you can see me with the unboxing and everything on my YOUTUBE CHANNEL SK8AFUXA go there I will have videos up and good ones there are people on there who have them but arent pushing them to the max i got a power acoustik 2000 watt class d monoblock amp to them and they pound i will have a video up soon when i have time please check it out these are great trust me they look A LOT better in person trust me so yeah check out my channel if you wanna see how powerful they are and everything

4 years later, still bumpin'!

I got these as a graduation present from my mom and shes cheap which is why she got these lol I was disappointed when I saw em because of the "Dual" name but I got over it and installed em and never looked back! Until this day, I have not had any problems with these what so ever and they hit pretty hard! They might not be any L7's but for the price, its a must buy! Now let me mind you, Its going on 4 years now! If they go to hell tomorrow, at least ill be able to say I got my moneys worth! Dual, has proved me wrong about these subs. I highly recommend them! One thing though, I don't know if you buy the power cord separate or what, but it never came with it so I don't know how the lights work. I really don't care at this point lol.

Awsome

I have had my duals for about 3 months now and nothing is wrong with them. I have a 600watt pioneer amp hooked up. The bounce good and hard, my side mirrors shake bad. They also make my license plate rattle. Awesome product!!!

best subwoofers you can buy!!!!

many people said when you buy these subwoofers,after some days they'll explode=wrong...i have had these babies for about 2 months now and still with them and nothing wrong with them,,they are power by a pioneer 400 watt amp and they hit so hard that it makes my rearview mirror dance like crazy and the sound of these subs are amazing,some rattling because of new aftermarket tail lights but they will hit like kicker subwoofers,id love the faces on people when they see my rear view mirror dancing like crazy.....for the price they are truly the best

Great beginner subs

I have owned these and they are a great pair of beginner subs. Although you will eventually want to upgrade but the box is amazing the subs can hit if u have the right amp and song but are only beginner subs. They bottom out easy

great product

i got this product in December from here and they were great my amp was just too much power and about 2 weeks ago and they blew up... overall great product.

Box is amazing!

I had these in my mustang and the subs sound alright not too bad i guess. I took the subs out and put some polk audio MM1240's in this box and wow this box made those woofers sound amazing! i think teh box is great and i loved it! Subs ok for me but the box is what i loved about this!

awesome box

everything about this setup is good except the subs. the box and lighting is great...only if u could put some better subs in it.

pretty good

I have this setup, and i was really surprised the bass puts out. u just cant play it at really high volumes. the leds and the box look really good too.

More Than Happy

First let me start off with the fact that I've had these speakers for 6 years now and have never had a single problem (knock on wood). I first got them in august of 2006 and along with a 1000 watt kenwood amp and I have never been displeased with the amount of bass that they can dish out. They've been in 5 different vehicles a 74 nova, 98 rodeo, 98 silverado, 03 aerio, and now in my 2012 Accent and they have sounded and do sound outstanding in each and every one of those. I know these aren't top of the line speakers and I believe they were $150 when I bought them brand new but I can honestly say that I have truly gotten my moneys worth and more out of them and the sound that these speakers can produce is nothing to overlook.

Must buy!!!

The one i had was amazing. I loved it until one day I left my car unlocked and when I got into my car it was gone. But it is totally an awesome product!!!

Ok I guess

This set up is good for a beginner who doesnt want your system being heard from outside the car. They hit pretty good but they start distorting and make popping noises when the radio is off and the blue light is real cool but to bad it doesnt beat with the music. Over all subs are good but they make wierds sounds sometimes that will only go away if you put the music up loud and if you put it up to loud they do not sound that good

Not bad.

Easy to hook up and for being duals there not bad. They sound good and they can hit pretty low notes. They put out more sound with less power. Great first subs.

this thing is ok

i have this exact sub set and i bought it hear before i forgot my password and created a new account. this is good for people who like flashy, illuminated boxes. but the subs are crap. i put 2 Rockford punch stage 3s in there and now its amazing. ill give dual one thing, they can make some great boxes, but there subs need some work.

Great subs

I had a SBP10 and later a set of these in an 02 f150 and I have to say they were some of the best I've owned. They often out paced many higher end systems and kept plenty of pennies in my pocket.

Great once paired with a good amp

i bought this and ordered the visonik amp for it (1600 watts) man these subs slammed, i set off a car alarm once with it. everyone was amazed that the subs were dual! good buy just get a good amp plus the box is incredible and sturdy and heavy!

Awesome subs for the price!

I have had this setup, along with the matching Dual amp, and it sounds great. I haven't had any issues with these "not being name brand", the quality is really there. They sound nice and clear, and also hit hard when pushed up there. I would definitely recommend these to anyone I know that's looking for a solid setup. The lights are an added bonus, and really show off the system! A++ to Dual for coming out with a quality, affordable product! Solid 5's across the board.

great subs

i have no one but 2 of these subs and really really underpowered they still sound amazing i love them highly recommend them to anyone looking for a cheap but good sub

Dual XOBP12D subwoofers

These subs have an attractive design, great powerful sound, and are easy to install. I haven't hooked up the lights yet because they will take away power from the subs until I purchase a capacitor. Overall, great value for inexpensive subs.

awsome :]

i got one of these it dont take much to push
i like them :]

This Goes Hard

I have not actually owned this item, but I have a friend who I ride with a lot, and owns this subwoofer combo, he paid much more for it at b*** b** though. Either way, this is a great system, it goes off hard. It really can blow, with the right amp you will be surprised how great it sounds, only thing is a little distortion when you raise the volume real high. If you have an aftermarket head unit it will be fine, great accessory to your car. I love the light show
