Question for F-bod Father: 5.1 DTS or THX

[Kevin L]

I realize that as of now the premium stereo system will be a Boston Acoustics 245w package but is there any chance that we will see a head unit with either Dolby Digital 5.1 surround or a THX certified system in the Camaro? Lincoln uses THX certified systems in some of their cars and it sounds amazing.

Also, if you have heard and dvd audio or DTS music discs, they sound incredible and I WOULD DEFINITELY PAY SOME EXTRA DOUGH FOR A PREMIUM SOUND SYSTEM. Perhaps Boston or Denon could make it happen?

Any chance?

There may be a good chance getting multi-channel audio with the Botson Acoustics sound system. The specs I've read say there is a center-channel speaker in the dash, plus a sub in the rear deck. GMs already has CD/DVDs decks that are DVD-Audio capable. Our Torrent GXP has the DVD entertainment system and the DVD player is DVD-Audio capable. But it down mixes the the audio to 2.0 since the speaker system wasn't set-up for 5.1 audio. Our Torrent however didn't come with the optional Pioneer speaker system w/sub.
