I just wanted to recommend a program that blew me away (well not reali but I was reali excited and happy with the result.) for the past 2 days of driving my car instead of studying for my mid-terms. Anyways, you can get your MP3 to sound like 5.1 Surround in your car, by using "mp3SX Converter" from a company called Fraunhofer or something similar to that. It takes your regular 2-Channel MP3 and converts it to 5.1 Surround, so when you burn the output file of that program into MP3 and playback in your car, you get a virtual surround effect which sounds really good. If you have a subwoofer in the trunk, it gets a little bit better bass response and the sound is just amazing.
I recommend it to anyone that doesn't have Logic7 in their car but have MP3 capability, but maybe with Logic7 it might sound even better (surround sound wise). Please everyone give it a try and comment. Its available for Mac and Windows. I'm not in any way associated to the company watsoever. ENJOY!!

it only works with a player which has the codec for head phone sorround. our car does not have the codec to virtually ehance 2 channel sound to sorround. so i think the guy from thailand who started the thread better check again...he is surely wrong!
