Re: [SurroundSound] Surround in the car

Why not try this whole Pioneer ODR system

http://www.highdowncaraudio.com/acatalog/Pioneer_ODR_Optical_Digital_Reference.html

or this strip down ODR

http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/Stage4/CD-Players/DEX-P99RS

It has lots of lots of tuning options...and let u play 4 ways,
tweeter, mid, midrange and subwoofer..best of all I plays wav files
