Default 13th speaker location?

Can someone tell me where the 13th speaker on the LC 500 is? I think some LCs have 12, others 13. Salesman was clueless.

12 with standard, 13 with ML. ML has an extra front-center.

LOL. Not sure where that bottom pic came from, but it's wrong. Shows 14 speakers. There are only 2 front-center sprakers, not 3 like that diagram is showing.

The 13th one is the sub-woofer between the two back seats right? That's what I naively assumed in mine anyway.

WRONG, if you bothered to read and look at the photos.

Also, do you really find it necessary to reply to all 13 recent threads AT ONCE?!? You don't have that much useful to contribute. Ease into the forums as an newb.

Default Mark Levinson audio

Does anyone have a diagram that shows where the 13 speakers are located on the Mark Levinson system?

There are eight speaker covers in total that I can see. The dash corner covers appear to house two speakers each with only one in the center, that makes five speakers in the dash.
The doors may house two each, I cannot tell.
The rear appear to house one each
The rear center setback may house more than one.

Anyone know for sure?

Got this from Lexus Enthusiast. https://lexusenthusiast.com/2016/12/...-500h-preview/
Mark Levinson: https://www.marklevinson.com/in-lexus.html

Some locations have two speakers, usually woofer on bottom and tweeter on top it. They are known as Coaxial Speakers.

Mark Levinson website says the LC has 11 physical speakers in 8 different location. So my guess is the dash speakers by the A pillar are coaxial and ones in back, by the C pillar is also coaxial. Which will add up to 13 speakers, per Lexus's Advertisement .
