From what I have heard the sub is in the rear door, at least that is what i saw on one video review of the NX. How true that is I really don't know, don't have my NX yet. Hopefully this week though, maybe.

As for replacing, I won't do it, I am not in the car enough and don't have a good enough ear to warrant that kind of upgrade. I know it is not for me, but that doesn't mean it isn't for others.

Here is the link to the section of the video review that talked about the subwoofer, if the link to doesn't take you to the 26:45 mark of the video go to that, you can get to that link from the youtube page as well.

Sub is on the rear hatch.

Not an audiophile and no plans on upgrading the speakers but I took this pic - hopefully this helps.

 

Very disappointed to find out nav system does not automatically lower volume of the music/radio when giving vocal directions....I was used to that in my q5 and I know the GLK also offers that. Am I missing something?

Also realized that enform system does not include traffic info and the apps in Canada. Do you guys know if there is chance of some kind of upgrade later?

Aside from that, loving my new NX!

Thanks!

 

Congrats on your new NX and welcome to the forum!

Haven't played much with the Nav yet but note you can set the fixed Nav volume in Nav options.

Sorry, no Enform and related services in Canada. Lexus Canada's response was: due to marketing studies indicating the need is not present for Enform in Canada at this time.

 

I believe the traffic information in the US uses HD Radio.

 

Correct. Traffic and Radio use HD radio

 

Hi Corrado,

Thanks for your answer.

Yes I can set the volume but I thought that if my radio is on when my NAV needs to give me instructions, it would reduce the volume of the radio so I can hear the instruction. At the moment, the NAV would talk at the same time as the radio, so it's very hard to understand...

 

Nice! Thanks! Thats does help. Now only if there was info on the power and impedance ratings of the speakers.

Anyone taken a look at the Ohm Draw or RMS power of the speakers?

 

A prior member pointed out this as a design flaw and I must agree. In the rear door trim interfacing the wheel well, the gap traps a lot of dirt especially in winter. Tricky to remove with just a rag as the dirt jams in the bottom crevice, you'll need a brush or powerwash to remove it all.

 

This is the way Toyota/Lexus navigation systems have always been in my experience (2009 RX, 2010 RX, 2013 GS, 2014 IS, 2014 Venza). Honda/Acura systems also automatically lower the music volume.

My work around is to almost max out the voice prompts.

 

So for those who have an iPhone 6+ and are getting the optional Qi charger for your phone as part of their package...you'll be happy (not really) to know that it does not fit in the quick charging tray...its about 3/4 inch to long for the tray.
the regular iPhone 6 on the other hand will fit no problem .... but not the 6+

I believe the Samsung Note 4 will not fit either as it is about the same size in length as the iPhone 6+...

 

for the QI charging tray, I thought it was a bad decision to mold the indentation into the tray. They should have left it flat and have some sort of adjustable wall/peg so this type of thing wouldn't happen.

 

I'm assuming it was so that it is held into place so when u brake, it stays in the tray

 

I thought the iPhone wasn't compatible with the charger anyways so its all moot

 

Iphone is compatible if you buy a qi enabled case.
