I will respectfully disagree. Its a car, not a sound studio, so I don't expect it to sound like one, and sirius sounds a whole lot better than am/fm to me.

It’s not as good as what we have in my Honda Civic after only $2500 upgrades to the stock system.
But I find it acceptable for the price of the car.
98% of people are fine if any sort of system makes noise they recognize as music and does not distort too badly. Only going to get so good in such a space. The Naim system in the Bentley excels in natural character, not full blown digital like in the LC.
I have never used an outboard DAC between my phone and the car. Have subscribed to Tidal just this week and have a new Cambridge Audio Azur 851 with the best DAC I’ve had in my home. Definitely another level. Our old Klipsch never sounded so good.

So much debate about the ML system in every Lexus model forum. Forget about playing MP3s on a flash drive - they sound awful.

Not that 99.9% could tell the difference until it's quite compressed.

listening to my system, i will agree. The Audio system in our LC500's is pretty underwhelming. It lacks pretty much everything in the frequency range. Reminds me of a time when i drove my parents Old Cutlas Supreme and the speakers didn't work. I had brought a portable DVD player and $5 Koss speakers for them.
