Question Replacing standard amplifier with Mark Levinson amplifier

Hello out there,

Glad to be a member of this great forum.. I'm Moayad and I'm proud owner of '12 Lexus es350. I wonder if I replaced my current amplifier which is the standard one; with the Mark Levinson amplifier, would improve my bass or sound quality! I have checked, and I have the same cords and the same posts as the Mark Levinson amplifier but thought to ask first before I get it.

Thanks

I'd do a bit more research 1st... make sure all the pins are the same color an in the same pin location. many of those connectors have become standardized but they can be pinned totally different.

I have considered replacing my amp with the Mark LEvinson amp for my car. I would really like to know what you find out about doing this?

Boy oh boy it been almost more than a year since I post my question but anyhow no, unfortunately the ML amplifier has many connectors as Shibumi1 said. I don't have that on my standard amplifier. However, I changed both the navigation guide speaker which is located on the dashboard and the pioneer subwoofer on the back with the Mark Levinson and man, music now sound waaaay better with the ML subwoofer.

P.S. I tried to install the JBL amplifier that comes on the Avalon since it has the same connectors as my pioneer amplifier, but it did not work
