Question Difference between Mark Levinson and Premium audio

Hi Lexus people,
I just bought my first Lexus, a 2004 ES330 with Navigation and Mark Levinson (Loooove it!). I sent my salesperson an email to say thanks and how I enjoyed the Mark Levinson system and he emailed back and said he thought I had the "premium sound system" rather than the Mark Levinson.
So now I am confused, what is the difference between premium sound and Mark Levinson? My car has the Mark Levinson logo with the words premium sound system written below it printed on the dash next to the navigation screen. Do I have it or not? Are there different degrees of Mark Levinson? When buying, I thought if it has the logo, it has the audio. Somebody please educate me. It has the navigation with in-dash CD player and 6 disc changer in the console. Thanks!

There are no grades of Mark Levinson within one car model, only evolutionary changes over time. You have the logo, you have the system. Enjoy!

This just shows how little some sales people know about their own product.
