Talking Checked Out Mark Levinson + Updated Pix

So finally (after 2 weeks) blasted the MARK LEVINSON 13 spkr 7.1 sound system.

WOW

This is coming from a guy who has a DENON/M&K Dolby 5.1/DTS Surround system setup at home (can you say "room shaker")

I love trance/dance music so I had Darude/Paul Van Dyke and DJ Sasha at full blast and damn I could feel my heart coming out of my chest. The bass was thumpy and clear. Drum and synthersizers knew where to go at what time I played with the
surround option and and bass-treble settings and there is NOTHING i can say to crticize this seup. Listening to this fast paced music with heart ripping bass and ear screeching synths on this great system all through the 13 spkrs, while to doing errands in my new GS was just plain HOT!

Another indication that i made a great desicion in purchasing this car.


btw...got the car washed today again....just wanted to share some pix.....

NYlexus- I agree with you. The chrome brings out the window molding.

Love the car, NY. And love the chrome.

Just curious... Did you have the Mark Levinson system in a previous Lexus? If so, I assume that this current one in the new GS sounds MUCH better than the older one from the previous generation, huh?

Thanks. Just a quick back story.....Actually I also own a 99 BLK GS300 as my second car. No it did not have a Mark Levinson system BUT I did upgrade the stock stereo with KENWOOD KVT911DVD system with 2 6.5" screens in the back. The point is that i have heard/had good systems and to be honest i did not know that Mark Levinson had such Power and Coolness factor to it until i played with it.....btw for visual aid here's the pic of my setup in my other GS....(hopefully i am not breakin any rules by posting a pic of 2GS in 3GS forum...sorry MODS! )
