in car audio, it is the combined DSP amps that are in fashion...You can see a lot of brands that offer this service ,the most compact is Audison with 12channel . B&O or ELS ,excuse me: are not experienced in car audio , take a look at their speaker, these are cheap speakers with the basic paper cone ...and for about the 3d system , it is an simple all pass filter injected in or something basic near of this( delay or angle 90 etc ) , with a DSP you will experienced true "rear field" and create a true 3d system with time alignment and solid bass with class D amp instead of basic A/B design that allow the car to switch on many times.. .
As i said a lot of brand do this ,but all is the tuner ...
Regarding the crappy speakers, I knew this, and I've always known that it was the built in DSP that made it sound good. I don't plan on swapping the speakers any time soon. I just want the best possible sound without compromising the OEM head unit integration. What do you recommend to achieve this?

The Audio control unit has a tighter S/N Ratio 102 vs 98.5. meaning its a little quieter on the floor noise/a little cleaner sound. But at my age they would both sound great.
I though I'd chime in regarding the sub-woofer grill rattling: At least on the 24 LC Convertible, I do not have this issue. Not sure if I got lucky or Lexus fixed the issue, at least on my vehicle it's fine.
finally figured this out with help from sick puppy's post (thank you) about getting into the trunk with a key from the back seat!
you grab the cover from near the TOP and pull back and then the whole thing comes out, you can't just take off the cloth covered bottom like on the convertible i believe.
Made some suggested equalizer changes I saw on here to make the ML system sound a hell of a lot better. It sounds amazing now, but I'm getting a vibrating/rattle sound coming from the rear subwoofer area when the bass really hits. Looks like I need to remove this panel and either clip the plastic grill or use some type of dampening tape. I have the coupe and when looking at the pic above, it seems like there is some white strap attached to both the panel and the rear seating. Is this accurate? Easily removable?

it's been a while but yes there is that strap as you can see and i presume it could be removed by cutting it out, or maybe removing the brackets on either the cover or the seat area (from what i can see).
just curious, at what volume level are you getting this rattling? no issue here.

Usually over 40, but I tweaked my EQ settings more to the rear to prevent the sound being so front heavy. Ever since I did that, the system really booms but the vibration from the sub housing is getting progressively worse and more annoying. Usually with EDM and HIp Hop music.
Edit.....So it's fairly ease to pull that housing off? Just pull straight back from the very top of it and it comes off?
I tweaked according to this advice.from Asong1......ML Audio
Considering having experienced the ML in home Audio equipment and Pioneer, Pioneer middle of the road good choice, ML superior choice higher end. As far as mobile audio, no comparison that I've done.
At one point I had two RXL's at the same time, one had the stock system and one had the ML system. To my ears, the stock sounded just as good using the wired port connection for music. I did wonder why did we pay extra for the ML system. Then I got the LC Vert which also has the ML system. Again, I thought big deal, no discernible difference in sound quality (actually kind of disappointed). But following the setup guidelines in this thread and making the adjustments as suggested, mind blowing difference. Went and made the same changes to the RXL and now it's worthwhile. I'm now happy with the system.

Thanks tecman, for me the most noticed difference was turning off the "surround sound" and then only using the USB input (which has now been replaced with an OTTOCAST for wireless CarPlay).
