ELS Review in Stereophile Ultimate AV

On page 52 of the Nov issue, a review by Thomas J. Norton. Here's a quote from the article.... "While we have no plans for ongoing coverage of car sound, or for adding that category to "Recommended Components," the Acura's ELS sound system fit the Ultimate AV criteria: both revealing and forgiving, it was dynamic yet refined, with clean highs, tight bass, open, easy highs, and a surprisingly uncolored midrange. It played as loud as any sane motortist could want, without audible distortion and without frying the eardrums."

He goes on to say "But when I listened while driving, the unavoidable road noise, even in the relatively quiet Acura, obscured not only subtle spatial cues, but the sorts of subtleties that audiphiles look for in such hi-rez sources as DVD-A and SACD."

Overall, it was a very positive review on the TL's sound system.
