audio system compared to Lexus's Mark Levinson?
 
I know it's too early to get a definitive answer, but does anyone want to guess how the sound system will compare to the newest Levinson systems (found in new GS and IS class).

which sound system the 06 and lower or the new 07??? :confused: I say that it will still suck. Not as much, but it will still suck.

Before MLevinson lexus had the Nakamichi which i remember was a excellent sound system. Currently i have Mark Levinson on both my Lexus but, then again Lexus is stepping up for 07/ with the new Ls460L with 19 speaker ML sound system with a theater quality sound. But then again i usually listen to hip hop & call me crazy but, i enjoy the bose on my G better then ML.

I am sure for 07/ Infinti will improve the quality of there Bose system.

Well; we can guess all we want, but it would be pointless till we actually sample the car....

Crazy!!!Are you serious???? maybe when compared to the stock pioneer unit....what kind of Lexus do you own? You may need to adjust the audio controls on your stereo if you enjoy the Bose in the coupe rather than the ML..Thats one of the first things that I listen to and critque when I get into a car and purchase, and I as well listen to hip hop all day along with R&B music, ..thats the first thing my friend changed in his G coupe...Its not as clear as the Nakamichi system, the mids are not as pronounced....IN my opinion the bose in the 05 Maxima sounds better than the Bose in the G, but its way to Boomy...its not as crisp when compared to Nakamichi system or ML..You cant hear alot of the seperation in the bose unit...its almost like a boom box.... and against the Mark Levinson there is no point in that comparison, because its sounds better than the Nakamichi....read some of the stereo reviews on both systems and you will see what i mean, hell listen to them back to back and you will see what iam talking about..once u have adjusted the audio on you ML system in your Lexus..take for instance the ML in the 2002 GS vs the Bose in the 2003 G coupe.....the Bose isnt on the same level , it gets blown away!!!!!

I have a ML in my RX330 and I seriously doubt that Bose will ever beet ML or any other Marque audio Company that's out there. In fact I'm quite disappointed that Infiniti did not pick up someone else at least for their Infiniti line.

I have 06/LS 430 ultra premium, & 06/gx470 fully loaded with kdds. Now i am not trying to compare my ML with the bose, the sound of the Ml is very crispy clear. But the reason i enjoy the bose because it's very boomy & loud, once again call me crazy but, that's what i like.

I just bought an 06 IS350 with just the standard stereo (no ML) and it blows the current G bose system away. Although it does sound like there is some potential for the 07 system to kick some a*s. We shall see!

I'm right behind you - If I do not like the 07 G35 I'm never returning to Infiniti again, and I'm going to buy the IS 350 like I should have done in the 1st place [w/the Mark Levinson:cool: ]. I've never own a bigger POS then the G35 I have now. Too bad for the car has a lot of potenial - hindered by piss-poor quality.

If that is how you feel, I'd suggest you sell it and move on. :rolleyes:

lol.. poor RLampke has had buyer's remorse nearly since the day he bought it. Can't say I blame him too much although I do think he's being somewhat dramatic in his portrayl of his dislike of the car. The navigation is subpar and the brake quality is severely lacking on my '05x.. But, for $35,000 it's nothing I can't live with. It beats the hell out of the Subaru I was driving and until I stop being too frugal to upgrade to a BMW/Lexus, I'll deal with the nuisances of the G35.

RLampke, I probably wouldn't wait for the '07 G35 if I were you... I mean it's still Infiniti. One thing goes wrong with that car (mind you it's the first year of the new refresh) and you'll be just as pissed as you are now. At least with another brand you will be able to have a "fresh start" with your car.
