Picked up an RLX

Traded in my '11 Palladium TL and got a new Krell RLX in Silver Moon!

Everything looks and sounds amazing, getting used to everything but so far I'm in love.

Here's just one pick I snapped earlier today (Weather was kinda shitty today, will post better pictures tomorrow)

Congrats and enjoy! I've had my GLM with Navi for about a week now. The stock ELS is very, very nice but I was wondering how that Krell package sounds.

Congratulations! The Krell audio system is truly an outstanding addition to the line. If only they'd offer it in more than two cars

Congrats.

Interestingly enough, in Canada they call that Alabaster Silver. I think thats an error. Probably they just copied the previous generation color names...

I am sure its hard to describe... but how does Krell sound?

PS. In any case, Silver seems to be the right color for Acura these days...

Thanks everyone! I've been playing around the past couple of days, still getting everything situated with settings/seat placement. Put around 60 miles on it, rides really smooth and comfortable!

Nice! Probably was the same car, I'm sure they weren't really moving then. From looking at the forums, April/May seemed like pretty nice RLX months.

I was looking into getting a tech, but when I checked Curry's inventory the only Silver Moon they had was the Krell, so I figured I'd give it a shot.

The touchup paint they gave me actually says Alabaster silver, and after some googling, looks like its the same as the Silver Moon

I test drove two Tech models, but didnt really "test" the sound on them so its kinda hard to compare. I'm still fiddling with the sound settings but it sounds really nice and crisp. I dont hear any rattling with the speakers/sub so thats nice too

Nice ride. I'm starting to like the RLX more and more as time goes on. There is a one in the neighborhood and it has a classic, understated look.
