I'm interested in doing that too but would hate to lose any spaces in the trunk.








It's in the cargo area, but it's not fixed.
The amp is under the passenger seat, totally hidden.

I also changed my halogen lamps to HID
Both lowbeam and fog lights

after hours of tuning my Equalizer ( 2013 RX 350 with Navigation)
i find THIS setting the closest to my House Audio set up.
i used a trusted CD that i can play inside the house, using a BOSE noise canceling headphone, a Professional studio recording headphone and then the RX Non- ML system with aftermarket subwoofer and amp.

Volume 30
ASL - OFF
Surround- OFF
Treble 0
Mid 0
Bass 0

This, for me is the closest to natural.. again, listening to music is very subjective.
i know friends whose Bass are +4/+5 while the Mids and Treble are on the (-) mark

My 2010 RX350 has Mark Levinson Premium audio system. Compared to the audio in my other car, this premium audio is not of high quality. I believe the difference is the subwoofer and its amplifier. The sufficient subwoofer output really makes big difference. Although the sound quality is kind of subjective, I think anybody can tell the sound quality difference between AM radio and FM radio, and the difference between FM radio and live theater performance.

-bumping an old thread here-

What is the make/product of these RX stereo systems? The 9-speaker and 12-speaker?

I noticed an amp near the spare tire, but did not investigate.

I believe Lexus has used Pioneer in the past, is that true for a 2012 RX350 and other 3RX years?
