I was checking out the Acura website to keep tabs on my favorite car, and I just noticed the latest TLs don't have DTS-CD capability anymore. Instead, it has a Dolby Pro Logic II feature. Thankfully, it still plays DVD-Audio discs.
Now, I love that fact that I can play DTS-CDs in my 2006 TL. I just got Alan Parsons' "On Air" and sounds great in the car. And, while Dolby Pro Logic II sounds like an interesting feature, it's still a "fake" surround.
On the other hand, maybe it IS a good feature for someone not exposed to surround sound. They can hear the "fake" surround on their normal CDs and possibly want to buy DVD-Audio discs which have discrete surround.
What do you think? Good move to expose the normal listener to surround or DTS compatibility is more important?
