Seven days spent with America's newest muscle car as a daily driver
Sound System Test
We tested this vehicle's sound system at limits you might not explore, but like horsepower, you like knowing the wattage is there even if you never fully take advantage of it.
The Camaro 2SS comes standard with a 245-watt Boston Acoustics 9-speaker sound system. We found the clarity to be quite crisp, even at higher levels, and the bass could be heard from about 25 feet away from the vehicle if that's how you like making your presence known (because unfortunately the exhaust note isn't going to do it). The USB hookup worked with both an iPod and an iPhone, and there is an auxiliary jack too if you need it. The head unit was easy to use and controls simple navigate, though we should note if you want to replace it with something aftermarket, it's going to take a lot of custom work as the stock unit is highly integrated with the heating, air conditioning and ventilation controls.
The Verdict: If you are looking at a Camaro that doesn't have the Boston system standard, we say go for the upgrade, it's well worth it.
