Was amazes me is that it is a 7.1 surround sound system. Movie theatres and home audio systems usually are on 5.1. The LS460 blows the LS430 out of the water by far.

That is indeed impressive, what gets me is I am still wowed by the clarity and richness of the LS 430 system, which won automotive audio awards. To beat that the LS 460 ML system must be phenomenal. I confess to not having much time spent with it. (Test drives not audio drives thus far).

The NY Times just profiled audio systems and the LS 460/600h ML system was used as an example:

Oh and my 6,000th post!

Happy 6000th. Now grab a beer and stop posting for a few minutes.

I stopped at 999 on one of the Lambo boards because I knew reaching 1000 would mean I needed to get a life. These boards are so addicting.
