Not worth the money.
By the time you spend the money to buy crap stuff, the better stuff is only a little more.
Whats the budget?

any thing from Dual audio sucks I have the subs right now just for temporary and they do not sound that clear and crisp. but they are cheap subs so what should you expect. Get some alpine ,american bass or MTX audio subs if you want to go pricy get JLs.

IMO dual is ok as a first system but they will crap out and if you can save your money and get something better...

Im really just looking for good quality not concerned about the price unless it gets too high like over $600. I was thinking about some MTX 12's that I found online going for $250. Then I saw those dual 12's for $180 and it caught my eye because they glow up a light blue color while in your trunk. So i'm not quite sure yet.

If you wanna represent Dual, get their preloaded bandpass box..
Is it good equipment..? Not really.
However, I've heard this little setup get decently loud back when I was in HS and people had cheap systems.
If you can snag that loaded box for like $50 or so from someone who just wants it gone (and I see that a lot, lol), I would probably say go for it.
Dual's radios though... uggg.
