2012 Mark Levinson audio/diagram help!!!!
Purchased a subwoofer set up, having some trouble installing due to the 2012 model ML system having different color wires, wondering if anyone got the ML Diagram for 2012 ISF model. Any advice or help installing/ information would be appreciated.
set up includes :
-2 Custom carpeted fiber glass box that fit perfectly in the left and right side of the trunk.
-2 JL Audio 10" Sub woofers
-1 JL Audio XD 300/1 Class D mono Amp
-1 Adjustable Line Output converter to get the signal from the MLS amp into the JL Audio Amp.

If all you need is a signal, go straight to the factory sub and tap your high/lo converter into the speaker wires there. Otherwise, gunna have to test the wires at the amp to find the lines going to the sub. Pretty simple either way. Good luck!

Seems like there are other RX owners disappointed in the sound quality of their Mark Levinson. I drive a 2016 RX450h F-Sport with ML. I listen exclusively to XM and have always felt like it sounded like AM on a portable transistor radio from the 1970s. But earlier this year, as a song was just beginning, I heard about a second or two of rich, deep music and I felt like I was surrounded by the sound. This was just the kind of sounds I expected from the ML system, but after only a second or two, the music returned to the flat, mono sounds from the central speaker. A week ago, I purchased a 2017 Toyota Corolla XSE for running errands, and its stereo sounds MUCH better than my ML in the 450h. I will be bringing this up with my Lexus Service Advisor at my next service.

There is set up reference CD for setting up any system. I had ML on my 2015 RX-450h. When I traded in for Audi SQ5,
right away I realized B&O system in the Audi was better sounding.
