well i know dual arent the best head units but are you sure all the settings are the same and check the specs on the new dual one compared to your old one and see if they are close.

I hate sound like an *** but Dual sucks. They just plain suck. Dont be surprised if noise starts getting into your system via the shitty *** RCA plugs on the back of that H/U. I would dump it now if you can. Just my .02
