I took 30 seconds and google found these three. All 3 are Sony head units, models
MEX-DV1000, MEX-DV2000, and
XAV-W1.

So even if you are listening to dvd audio in a car, its still not surround sound just incorrect imaging from the rear. Unless you have one of the few units that do 5.1.

I have an older alpine in my other vehicle that supports it in surround. There is no DSP and the imaging is correct with it. Just about any car dvd player supports dvd-a and sacd format. Including newer systems. Any new head unit that has toslink out will support it. Last I checked toslink is 100% correct channel presentation in car or home. The toslink out will be correctly setup to present the rear channel and the RCA outputs will also be correct for rear with no DSP required. I do plan on using a DSP in my build. I will start next week on it and be posting it when completed. Just do some research before purchasing and everything will be fine.

Again this is dependent upon the equipment you purchase. Making an assumption that everything being sold by every company is identical is just wrong.
