Well, I tried to play symphonies on a 2SS. I guess I cannot expect it to be as good as my stereo at home. LOL.

The BA one in my 2012 was decent, the Harmon Kardon in my dad's Benz is fantastic, the Bose in my 2008 Tahoe is complete crap, and the single speaker in the Z/28 is the greatest sound system on earth. I'm looking forward to hearing this one when my car comes in, but I haven't had high hopes because of the Bose system in the Tahoe.

How is that sounding?

The 1SS has bose too just with 6 speaker ... Its oretty good... I couldn't go more than half the volume... Cos it started getting too loud and distracting..

The Bose speakers ARE nice I can't imagine the car without it, but the downside is speaker placement I believe.

In my 2015 Mustang there was one right on the door near your ears sort of which made a much more enjoyable music experience. I feel like in the Camaro the music is coming from the windshield and only the bass is on the side doors..

I still like it don't get me wrong, but it could have been better, because unfortunately I now know that there was better out there. I'll live, always room for improvement. It is always nice and loud, just feels like something's "missing".

Aftermarket, if it's at all an option. Especially if the "Bose" is anything like the 5th gen "Bose" speakers, because they weren't good.

Nice to know the 1ss has bose also. I'm guessing its just gonna lack the bass. Probably doesn't have the watts the 2ss has.

The Bose system sounds so good that I can't even turn it all the way up without shattering the windshield!

Shake, Rattle & ROLL!!!

That is my concern. Had 4 C6s and the "Bose Blows" thing comes to mind.

Ha, you ain't lying, literally wouldn't be able to fit nothing in there. Nah, the bass is good though. Just the speaker placement sucks. You can keep cranking up the volume, but never quite gives that full surround sound feeling.

I'm sure it will far surpass the 4 door speakers in my 2010 F150.

If I you are new to the recent camaro scene, there is a guy who creates harnesses that just snap click intercept your head unit and add JL AMP power and a sub/box made for the camaro. Not a single spliced wire.....my link knows no diff.

I dont think he's a sponsor here, he's at sub thump dot com.
