Dual

Why replace your factory radio?

Two good reasons - sound quality and cool features. A new car stereo offers power that's superior to most factory radios, along with more sophisticated tone controls. And most car stereos offer built-in or optional features that add safety and fun to life in your car, including inputs for your iPod or MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free cell phone calls, satellite radio or HD Radio reception, and connections for building an audio system in your car.

Our take on the Dual XDMA6510

by Ken Nail

If you're an iPod® or iPhone® user, Dual's been thinking of you. Not only does their XDMA6510 CD receiver offer built-in controls for your player, but they've included a mount for it too. So, now you can keep your player right where you'd like it while you drive.

XDMA6510 with included mount

Dual also equips the XDMA6510 to handle all your mobile music needs. You can plug any other USB device into the handy front-panel input, or jack in a couple of audio players to the front and rear auxiliary inputs. Discs are covered too — you can play discs loaded with MP3 and WMA files, as well as your store-bought CDs.

Sound shaping is handled competently by bass and treble controls, along with seven preset EQ settings. And if you need more power, you can hook up external amps or a powered sub to the two pairs of preamp outputs. The receiver's sub level control lets you go to town when you want to crank the bass.

Want to keep your car's steering wheel audio controls?
In most vehicles, you can an adapter (not included) to connect your vehicle's steering wheel controls to this Dual stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and the Dual, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls.

Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Details" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver.

      Note: Apple iPod/iPhone software updates may change functionality results. If you download a newer software version, you may need to reset the head unit and your iPod/iPhone to regain functionality. If this doesn't work, you may need to wait until a newer software update is available.

      iPod/iPhone Cradle: The Dual XDMA6510 includes an iPod/iPhone cradle which provides a place to secure your iPod or iPhone next to the Dual head unit. The cradle will attach to the XDMA6510 when ISO-mounting or DIN-mounting the head unit in your dash.

      Dual Auxiliary Inputs: The Dual XDMA6510 is equipped with a front-panel 3.5mm auxiliary input & a rear-panel stereo RCA auxiliary input.

      • Stereo Minijack (3.5mm) Input: The XDMA6510 features a front-panel 3.5mm auxiliary input for temporary connecting an external portable audio device, such as a portable MP3 player.
      • Stereo RCA Input: The XDMA6510 is fitted with a rear-panel stereo RCA auxiliary input for permanent connection of an external audio source.

      Audio Section

      MOSFET Amplifier: The Dual XDMA6510 is equipped with a MOSFET amplifier. Compared to conventional power supplies, the MOSFET amplification circuit is smaller and more efficient, and it delivers increased power with less distortion and absolutely zero on/off switching noise. More power means louder and cleaner music at higher volumes because you're not pushing the limits of the amplification circuit.

      CEA2006 Compliant: The power specifications for the XDMA6510 are compliant with the CEA2006 Mobile Amplifier Power Testing and Measurement standards from the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). These standards were developed as a way to equitably compare power specs from model to model and between manufacturers. The power output specs for the XDMA6510 are as follows:

      • CEA2006 Specs: 18 watts RMS x 4 channels (at 4 ohms, 20Hz-20kHz, 1% THD-N)
      • Maximum Power Output: 60 watts x 4 channels (240 watts total)

      Preset EQ Curves: The Dual CD Receiver features the following preset EQ curves (Flat, Pop, Jazz, Classic, Beat, Rock, & User) to customize your music listening.

      Bass &Treble: The Bass & Treble can be independently adjusted from -6 to +6. Bass & Treble settings are retained for each mode individually. Any adjustments to the Bass or Treble settings automatically cancel the current EQ curve.

      2V/4Ch Preamp Outputs: The XDMA6510 is equipped with two sets of preamp outputs (Front, Rear/Sub). The unit's rear-channel can be used as a full-range preamp output with fade control, or as a non-fading subwoofer preamp output. When used as a subwoofer preamp output the level can be adjusted independently from 0-12. Adjusting the subwoofer level to 0 turns the subwoofer output off.

      Programmable Turn-On Volume: You can program the unit to turn on at a specific volume (1-46).

      Source Volume Level: The Source Volume Level control allows a gain adjustment for each audio source (AM, FM, CD, Aux & USB). You can set the source volume level for each mode, depending on the relative volume of each audio source.

      Key Beep: When this function is enabled, every button press will output a beep tone.

      Radio Functions

      AM/FM Tuner: The Dual 6510 features a built-in AM/FM tuner with manual, seek, & preset tuning.

      Preset Tuning: The built-in AM/FM tuner allows you to store up to 18 FM station presets and 12 AM station presets. You can tune your presets manually or have the head unit do it automatically.

      Local: The Local function allows only strong radio stations to be received, blocking stations with weaker signals.

      European Tuning: You can switch the tuner between USA or European tuning.

      Display Features

      Detachable Face: The Dual CD Receiver features a detachable faceplate and comes supplied with a hard-plastic carrying case to store the receiver's face when detached. The head unit includes two face-fixing screws for use if you prefer that the unit's faceplate always stays attached.

      Note: An optional soft face case (142DFC1X, sold separately) can also be purchased for this unit.

      10-Character LCD: The XDMA6510 features a 10 character LCD with white text & black background for easy viewing during the day or nighttime.

      Display Settings: The head unit offers the following display settings.

      • Scrolling: You can change the scrolling style used for displayed information on the LCD screen. Choose from Off (no scrolling), Once (scrolls once), 15 Secs (scrolls once per 15 seconds), and On (constantly scrolls).
      • Display Dimmer: The head unit's display features three illumination dimmer settings (High/Medium/Low).

      12/24 Hour Clock: The unit's built-in clock will display 12-hour AM/PM time in USA frequency spacing mode. In European frequency spacing mode, the clock will display 24-hour time.

      Note: The clock can be set to stay on even when the head unit is turned off.

      Power-On Message: This feature allows a "Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening" text message to be shown on the unit's LCD screen when it is powered on.

      Demo Mode: You can enable or disable the unit's demonstration mode.

      Remote Control

      Wireless Remote Control: The XDMA6510 comes supplied with an 18-button IR wireless remote control which provides complete control of the Dual CD Receiver.

      Steering Wheel Remote Compatibility: The head unit features an OEM steering wheel remote control input on the rear of the unit to allow you to keep your vehicle's radio steering wheel remote controls when used with the optional PAC SWI-RC Steering Wheel Control Interface Adapter (541SWIRC, sold separately); or the optional Metra ASWC Steering Wheel Control Interface Adapter (120ASWC, sold separately).

      Note: Please consult the Crutchfield Car Selector to see if your vehicle is compatible.

      Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
       
      I bought this to upgrade my '98 ford escort zx2's system. The pros and cons pretty much sum up my review.
      Pros:
      Good (possibly the best) value for the price due to a huge amount of features Sound quality is fairly good, except for the fm radio Plenty of inputs. Included ipod/iphone mount Plenty of features. The ones that stood out to me are: -Adjustable volume for the rear sub output -Adjustable volume for each input
      Cons:
      Takes way too long to read my iphone FM Radio tuner is next to worthless, and worse than the radio that came stock with my escort Buttons feel flimsy at times, but most of the time it's ok Relatively limited equalizer options. Fairly finicky controls, but you can get used to them Limited support for digital media files on usb drives(mp3 and wma only)

      So far seems like a really nice item

      Installed in a 1994 Chevrolet Suburban
      Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
       
      For the price I don't think you can beat this receiver. My old deck had a fold down faceplate, which I hated, so I really like the faceplate on this receiver. The FM reception is good, the controls and remote are easy to use, CDs and USB devices work very well with great sound and clarity, and as usual Crutchfield supplies everything one needs for an easy install.
      Pros:
      Good FM reception. Non-fold-down detachable faceplate. USB and AUX inputs. Easy to use controls and remote. Great sound and clarity
      Cons:
      Wish it had bluetooth, but not at this price. Oh well...

      Product did not fit my Miata as promised

      Written By MarleneC, Davis, CA on Wednesday, March 13, 2013
      Installed in a 1991 Mazda MX5
      Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
       
      According to the Crutchfield site, this radio was supposed to fit my stock 1991 Mazda Miata, but it is too big. My husband spent one afternoon modifying the supplied receiver housing to fit into the dashboard space. It took multiple iterations of cutting and shaving to get the thing to fit. After soldering the wire harness and installing the receiver kit in the dash, we discovered that the vehicle factory receiver trim panel would not install over the Dual receiver, which was too wide by 1/8-3/16 inch because of the ears (stops) that hold it in the DIN sleeve. Actually, even the DIN sleeve itself was too wide. We were highly disappointed, as the sound quality of the radio was good. We sent it all back and received a full refund of our payment, but still lost two precious afternoons in a futile attempt to install a product that was supposed to fit. Crutchfield should take more care with its claims of fit. I have no way to know if this radio was larger than specifications or if Crutchfield is using the wrong measurements on my vehicle, but it is inexcusable in either case for them to say it fits when it does not.
      Pros:
      Sound was good
      Cons:
      Doesn't fit as promised

      I bought this for my sons first car. It was an easy install with the included installation hardware. The wiring harness, antenna adapter, in dash receiver kit, and detailed instructions made this easy to install. This has a separate subwoofer jack in the back of the radio so he has complete control over the subwoofer in the trunk. The ipod/iphone holder that you can mount on the side of the deck is perfect. He can use his iphone to play music without having to hold it. It also has 2 more rca jacks in the back for a total of 3. 2 outputs and 1 input. This radio has it all for an amazing price!
      Pros:
      Price, ease of use, iphone/ipod holder, 3 rca jacks in the back (1 subwoofer, 1 regular, 1 input), and price again for what you get
      Cons:
      None so far

      Music upgrade for a hardbody

      Written By KevinS, Tyler, TX on Friday, March 08, 2013
      Installed in a 1994 Nissan Hardbody
      Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
       
      I have been using the factory AM/FM radio cassette player in my '94 Nissan pickup since I bought it about 15 years ago. For the last 2 1/2 years I have been using an FM transmitter to listen to podcasts on my iPod Touch. The audio quality is usually scratchy and I finally decided to do some research to see what it would cost to improve my setup. I was almost resigned to having to pay someone to do it for me. I found the Crutchfield's website through a Web search and I was immediately impressed that they offered customized instructions on teardown for receivers and speakers for each vehicle. They also recommended wire harnesses, an antenna adapter and a mounting kit. Crutchfield even went to the trouble to send an e-mail after my order was delivered. No other vendor has ever done that for me! The wire harnesses were color coded and a cinch to assemble. I used solderless connectors and heat-shrink tubing to put everything together. It would have been a nightmare trying to figure it out myself. I did not end up using the mounting kit as it did not include the storage compartment that sits under the receiver. I managed to transfer the bracket and compartment from the old unit and fits perfectly. I have never installed a receiver before so I was pretty pumped when I turned it on and the quality difference was immediately obvious. I plugged my iPod in and it was automatically detected and started to play. The remote control is certainly a perk.
      Pros:
      Good instructions. Color coded wiring harnesses. Detachable face plate. Remote control. AM/FM, CD, IOS devices, other USB devices. Good value. Easy install.
      Cons:
      It took a bit of effort to figure out the menu system

      This radio exceeded my expectations. I ordered it and it arrived super fast! I also was able to hook it up and get it working within a day or two. I recommend buying the harness. It makes things so much easier. It was also very nice.

      Not enough installation directions

      Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
       
      Choose this to replace the OEM receiver in my 1995 pickup. What a big improvement!! I selected this based on the features and price. I wanted a receiver that would get good FM reception and had the features for hooking up an iphone or ipod. The unit produces good sound. The only issue I have had is it seems slow in reading the iphone through the USB and will occasionally 'skip' while playing. Otherwise a great buy.

      This unit is an excellent value for the money, It is way more than what I expected to get for the price!! The sound quality and power are sufficient, the ability to have five inputs is a real plus and increases the enjoyment factor. With the Mastersheet the installation was a breeze and saved me probably at least an hour or more, what a great idea, the installation appears professionally done!!!
      Pros:
      good sound, ease of use, lighting is cool, ability to use I-pod, flashdrive
      Cons:
      none so far

      I have installed a lot of car stereos and I have to say this one was a snap. Really cool look, easy to operate while driving.
      Pros:
      Great unit for a small price, always opt for the installation kit. The Crutchfield team hits you up with everything you need along with great details and drawings. The Ipod and Iphone hook up is really great along with the ability to play music off of a thumbdrive.
      Cons:
      I was not able to use the neat gadget holder without cutting my dash board, I was however able to mount it in my ashtray, This is a very minor detail.
