With my new system I don't want to drive my car anymore. I just park it in a quiet place and sit there listening to music until I fear the battery will run out.

I never noticed all that noise and vibration that comes when you drive, even a Lexus. But with the clarity I have in my system now it is so obvious.

Also I play much louder than I ever did before. I'm quite sensitive to loud sound. In my old cars my ears would hurt after a minute at the level I'm playing at now.

Still, there are minor things I want to improve with the sound. But I've only played the speakers for 13 hours so far and I want to give them 40 hours to break in before passing judgement.

I'm feeling inspired to buy a new system for my home too. I hope this will not snowball into something very expensive.

Percy,

I hope you are wrong.


Kaban,

Not much to take pics of. Everything looks stock except the amp/box in the trunk. And there will be no style points rewarded for that install: http://www.greendale.se/lexus/sound/sound-trunk.JPG

I wanted to take lots of pics during the install but things happened and I missed most of it (I obviously didn't do it myself).
