Mark Levinson painful?
Got my 2019 ES F-Sport with Mark Levinson. I've noticed that when I turn the volume up loud enough to enjoy (around 30-35) it causes ear pain and headache. The feeling is like when you put your ear directly up to a speaker. However, putting the volume at 25 or so is not loud enough to enjoy. As I type this I understand it may not make sense, but I'm pretty experienced with car stereo. In my last Acura TL with ELS audio I could blare the volume at max with no problems. Anyone else have this issue with Mark Levinson?

If not for what a great driving car it is along with the fabulous seats I would be seriously depressed about it. This and along with the really dumb infotainment system have really put a damper on my enjoyment of this car. I posted about this a month or two ago and only got one response. Apparently there are some other threads about the ML system and how to make it sound better by adjusting the fade and bass/mid/treble adjustment (which is abysmal for such a premium sound system). They way I've got it mostly acceptable is to turn the treble all the way down, the mids almost all the way down and the bass in the middle while moving the fade a couple ticks to the rear but it is far from where I would want it. |
I put the ELS system in my 2010 Acura TL above the Bang & Olufsen that was in my 2014 Audi S5. I agree...you could blast that system with zero distortion and it had great balance of bass, mid and treble. I’m sure the B&O was more balanced and it probably was more accurate in reproducing classical music but as the volume went up the bass dropped off a cliff and mid and high frequencies jumped up in a non-linear way. I felt B&O could’ve done better for $5K. I have since driven many different brands with their “premium” stereos and that ELS system is still the best I’ve heard. |

Usually, ML sounds great. I am surprised that you guys saying it's painful!
