I haven't had a chance to play around with the Mark Levinson gear much just yet. It has a lot of adjustable features and DSPs to learn about but, on the basis of setup "as supplied" it sounds pretty good on MP3s streamed from my phone. I didn't have the optional Meridian upgrade in my RR (as it was £4,000!) so it's a bit of an unfair comparison.

The Lexus has a lot more equipment fitted and is much more up to date than the RR. The handbooks consist of a total of 1,200 pages so I am wading my way through it all.

I will give some more feedback later.
