Default Bose Surround system

Hi Guys,

A short and hopefully easy one for the specialists
I have a Audi A6 from 2005, and I took the BOSE SURROUND SOUNDSYSTEM.

I would like to know whether it supports DTS?

Reason being that I'd like to get myself a CD from there
http://www.dts.com/entertainment/cat...c=692860114029
Which plays in 5.1 DTS. Obviously I'd like to experience the full 5.1 stuff, but I have absolutely no idea and I can't find that anywhere...

Thanks a lot for your response;

Cheers
Larry.

I'm not positive but I'm pretty sure it would work. You could call a stereo place and ask them to be 100% sure.

no, you cant do 5.1 as is. if theres no center channel, youll be in 4.1 now if there is or you add it, you still wont. youll need a dvd player that can process it with its brain box or a built in processor, only then will you have DTS 5.1 for movies in the car

5.1 it does, apparently though

Look here:
http://www.bose.com/controller?event...s/surround.jsp

There's the 'digital 5.1 processing', 'center channel', etc....

I just don't see any DTS info.

Also you say I need a DVD player.. that's possible, and that's also how I imagine the stuff.
But it seems that there are also CD capable of containg 5.1 audio data, and/or DTS. You can find that on the net easilly, and on http://www.dts.com/entertainment/cat...c=692860114029 it seems like they have some.

Now what you say is true, the processor is what's needed. I really doubt there is one inside the cd player they put... but who knows.
I remember the guy at the AUDI shop telling me I could put special cd's (but what did he mean by 'special'???) in it and that would work.

That's why I'm confused as hell.
It's so unclear.

Tx again, hope to get some more responses though.

Cheers
L.
