Default whos got the ML and has heard the CTS bose?

I have the ML in my 350, and think its the best system in any car under 60,000. The biggest reason is the clarity when it comes to lyrics, and talk radio. Im 50/50 music/talk (npr and espn radio) and cant stand the stock IS system for talkradio.

I tested a cts-coupe 3.6awd today..its a smooth ride, looks great, good options... didnt take any music to test out the system tho. Ive heard good Bose, ive heard bad bose... what bose is in the CTS Coupe?

compared to the lexus the ride was smoother, way better infotainment regarding features.. but damn was that a heavy car. Also didnt get to test audio quality. my lexus felt like my old RX8 after driving the CTS-4 Coupe.

I didn't think it was possible to hear 'bad' bose haha But I'm sure that system is fantastic, perhaps there are review on the interwebs

I understand what you mean, Where I have never heard the BOSE system in the CTS my dad does have a BOSE system in his Suburban and quite honestly.. It sucks, its not loud @ all very very very little bass cant even tell the difference between highs and lows and he bought the truck new. Almost every car's stock stereo def inc my non ML IS has by far better sound, granted thou his cabin space is prob 15x what mine is. Only one other way to see test it out go back to the dealership just dont waste the salespersons time and have fun !
